About my design

by *brooke*
This is my design that was inspired by Iron and Wine's song "Boy with a Coin" [http://www.subpop.com/assets/audio/3458.mp3]...



I miss-read how the deadline works for the "Threadless Loves" competitions and thought I could still submit on Sept 15th up until midnight, but apparently I was incorrect and it was midnight before it turns Sept 15th.



Oh well, I am still submitting it to the regular competition. I am hoping that the gold color can actually be printed in a metallic gold ink.



I animated the flash template to be able to see the detail of the design, but you can also click and drag to zoom in to see detail after the starting animation.



Tear into it, GO!

Well apparently you have subbed it for the "Iron and Wine" competition, according to the logo at the top right of this page.

The artwork is amazing. I'd like to somehow be able to picture it on a real life tshirt because the positioning seems sort of strange to me on the diagram but I honestly can't think of a way to make it better myself. Somehow the elements seem a *bit* dosconnected as it is. Anyway I'm gonna give it a 5 just because the art is soooo good but hold off on the $ for now.

it's a little too complicated for my taste.

but, very nicely illustrated.

Thank you!



Critiques welcomed, I am always looking for advice on how to improve. I am not new to design work, but very new to t-shirt/silk screen design... it takes a bit of adjusting.



Give me pointers, GO!

Sorry DeedBeans, I guess I had the fps too high when I submitted it. It was suppose to be a lot smoother.

What color T-shirt do you all think this would look best on?

i like it without the girl/cage at the the bottom... it doesn't feel incorporated enough, but i really like all the aspects, just feels disconnected.

I don't understand why there are skeletons/skulls.

like on the bird and the coins.



Song maybe?

I have no idea.



Nice though..

I like it, but the flesh as same color as shirt isn't working for me. The girl has no arms or legs. . . .
