About my design
by squid inc   
I don't know if everyone is familiar these... they are very common in the midwest. These Sycamore "helicopter" seeds fly away from the tree as they drop to the ground.

About the "H" on the shirt... the idea was that the "helicopter" was coming down to land.

I really don't like the H. Otherwise, this is wonderful.

Maybe on a different color, kinda hard to make out the trail and the landing area. Might be more pronounced in person, I guess.

Make the color a little darker [landing area] and you have got something great here!

What about a tree with a lot of these helicopters coming down? I also agree with the others about a darker color shirt. Cool idea for a shirt though!

Cool idea. It's from a maple tree, though.

Here's what I think, make the shirt darker, like in a brown, and define the height a little better... At first I thought the helipad was colored out of trees, like the seed was coming from an extreme height. That is cool, but if it's the case, maybe make them look more like trees (with a little same colored stump or such). If it is grass I'm bot sure what I would do, maybe leave it alone. But on a shade of brown, this would be a must have. Good work.

Bad then good.
I don't like the H.
But, I love the helicopter thing. I didn't know what it was, then I figured it out and was all, "OHH, OOHHH! I LOVE THAT!!!"

i'd just make the helicopter leave look like it was really whirling around a bunch more with some more action lines directly on it, and maybe give it a little more space or a different angle and center it on the tee going towards the landing zone. A fun fall memory tho.

The H is the joke party of it kids.

Very cool concept, I dig it.
LCastle
LCastle on Nov 17 '07
I like it as is. It's a well-executed simple design. And the subtle colors make the seed pop, and you have to look closely to get the joke. If you crank up the color, it loses its subtlety, making a different (and less unique) feel altogether.

(and without the landing pad (the H), the entire concept is lost.)

5 from me

it took me a minute to get this one...but once i made all the connections i loved it! took me back to being a little kid. :)
...someone said something about a tree with a bunch of them raining down (or a few of them)...I think that would help people make a faster connection. good work though.
