About my design

by Mrjoshyman
This design will only have 8 colors. Light brown, dark brown, black, white, red, yellow, navy, and silver. The gramaphone head has a gradient effect. Thanks.

Thanks. Do you like the shirt colors? That's what I wanted to get down.

I like the contrast between the gramaphone head and shirt color, that's what I was trying to emphasize.

I tried the color but it just didn't seem to flow with the feel of the shirt. I wanted the attention at the gramophone. With the white you can see the contrast with the color of the shirt. Maybe not on creme, purple and dark grey look great with it.



If you could notice, the color of the shirt does beam through on parts of the instruments: the neck of the guitar, keys of piano, trumpet horn, through harp, etc. I like that.

for having so many colors this shirt seems so bland

I think you should take out the radio because it isn't an instrument. It plays recordings, like the gramophone. And if colour isn't an option for the instruments, maybe shading?

the theme is Music past, present, future, so I wanted to go through the times...the harp then trumpet, gramaphone, electric guitar, boombox (representing 90's) then synthezier/piano (now).



I was going for how far music has come through the ages not how far instruments have come through time. Thanks for the advice.

WOW! This shirt design is absolutely amazing! The designer obviously has a lot of talent! I really like the blue in the gramaphone, and it looks really good on the grey! I'd definitely buy it!

Awesome use of clip art! You really took ownership of the stock musical instruments.

Unfortunately though even if you didn't use clip art that's how it looks to me. I think if they looked more hand drawn I would dig this more.

I think you should shade the instruments with greys. They don't really fit with the fantastic gramaphone. I'd buy it on purple.

It feels like something I would see in an elementary school music textbook. That's not an insult...or a compliment, really. Just a first impression.

So then of course you'd buy it. : )
