About my design

by a_roaringlion
dislocation in dreams, and the idea of a dream-maker, a schizophrenic self. my last submission had halftones that wouldnt work. tried to simlify this one in terms of colours. i draw heavily rendered stuff and this is an attempt to try and recreate for printing on Ts. hope to hear some good feedback on how to make this better.



cheers

This is nuts. Fantastic skills, wow.

thanks J-Ray

this is what comes out of my head. like i said, my drawings end up heavily rendered, so re-working them for printing on Ts in lesser colors, without losing the essence of the drawing, is a new experience. hope to hear more feedback.



hey Kookaberry, would you wear this print



cheers

This ain't a t-shirt - it's art baby! I seriously hope you are exhibiting. I love your style.

it is art indeed. could you not also make a version where no frame (like the square) subscribes it. Instead, let your figures float, in the floating world we live in anyway. but love it anyway.

hey zen, i know what you mean, but i guess the need to 'frame' it held sway for a moment

I hate to be the one thats says it, and maybe I'm the only one that thinks it but sometime designs don't always work on certain things like this one. This is really great art work I just feel that a t shirt degrades it. Heck I see it on a wall, but either way for me I will give you a 5 just for the skills. GREAT STUFF!

this is excellent, the only thing about it that bothers me is the area in the upper right corner, the dislocated arm & i think, leg? anyway, that little mass is drawn differently, it just looks too smooth compared to everything else...



otherwise, really great work i'd wear it.

SM, agree and don't. you are right about the wall bit, though that works for me when real material is manipulated. this is the output of a stylus and some ballpoint work, worked around using software. so if it can be screen printed or in any other way, on fabric, it becomes more than what it is. just that is amazing. thanks nonetheless, your feedback is going to make me move my lazy ass.



cheers

I think that this is a great drawing. I'm not sure that it's a great tee shirt design. I'd love to see the drawing as a drawing.

do you have a website? you need one. if not definitely get off your "lazy ass" and start promoting yourself.

Very nice, but I'd like to see it not in such a boxy presentation.

I love your artwork but I'm not sure whether the design suits a tshirt. Look forward to seeing more great stuff from you.

It stands really strong alone as an image, but I probably wouldn't wear it on a tee.
