I wanted this to be really crude and folky looking. But I really like spirals and stuff...

the bird should be in the same cool style, not traced

I agree about the bird...

there's something about the guy's neck/chin area on his left that is KILLING me. it just looks too hefty, but all together, i like it

I think the colors kill this one...more interesting color breaks (cream against aubergine or something like that) might be more effective. IMO, of course... ;-)

I tried turning the black to white and using that on various colors, but it looked really freaky and it was hard to make out the shapes. Oh yeah, and I intentionally made the neck really thick because the guy is based on a football player guy I knew who had the thickest neck ever.

Interesting source of inspiration for a shirt. A guy's neck... came out pretty well. Not really sure I'd wear it, but its getting close.

lose the bird. $5

cool..but the guy seriously freaks me out.
