About my design

by jaylovestheguinness
This is my final submission to the 'Owen Loves Threadless' competition. Based on my earlier design this one uses some different colours and is based around the 'pop-up' book style where layers of card can be pulled around to make an image appear to move. I thought this could be a pretty interesting idea so tell me what you think of it. Cheers for your feedback, Jay

I like how it looks like the moon has sunglasses

This is a really great design, i love the flying machine. The 'pull tab' is a nice touch, Its a 5 from me.

I really like it, but I'd like it more if you drew a new little guy instead of just using the same guy with an umbrella holding onto some string. The pull tab is sweet tho, if this gets printed, I just might get it.

My other little bit is that everything has a shadow except the moon, which makes it look very flat and out of place.

very cool kind of reminds of willa wonka in a way meets mary poppins i guess because of the whole umbrella thing but PROPS!!!! though :)))

Cool! It looks like vectors: if so, why didn't you round out the moon's "chin"? It's all edge-y.

The moon was meant to just b an image on the background layer but tbh i can add a shadow in behind if thats what people would prefer, thanks for all the comments anyway. Btw, same guy was used because this is pretty much a resub, i wasn't really happy with the last design so i made some changes, a lot of changes! Cheers

I just wish the colors weren't so garish. The guy with his flying machine is really neat but I want it to be colored more like an old victorian or Edwardian illustration. Magenta... not so much.

Thanks for the comments everyone, getting some mixed feedback on the colours so depending on the score i may think about resubmitting but i guess we'll see. Keep the comments coming, thanks, Jay

i don't like the choice of colour. some of the colours clash. pastel shades with a strong magenta....? might look better playing with just the characters without the frame

The whole point of the t-shirt is the frame so if tht isn't 'enjoyed' then i'll scrap the design idea and go down a diff route. cheerz
