About my design

by Maliel
It's the sweet ones on the outside that you need to watch out for.

I SWEAR. I cannot get over this inability to use TAGS.

Here's the rest of the post that it ate before.





*Helpful critique is always welcome





but I'd appreciate it if you didn't eat me alive. =D

Ok, so let's get that out of the way. It's not a rip-off, and it doesn't mean we can't do with another shirt similarly themed (god knows we have enough trees). But it's a GREAT shirt and Aaron Hogg is (imho) one of the best designers out there - so unfortunately you picked a classic saying that has already been rendered into a shirt by an incredibly talented designer.

Ok, that said - yours is a completely different approach and what I like most about it is the black unpredictable squiggly thing that incorporates "nice" hearts and music notes, etc.

Very, very original idea. I can't understand why someone would say it's a rip-off (if someone did). With this being a rip-off of some other random project, that would make as much sense as saying being random is being a rip-off of being prep.



With that out of the way, the shirt is so cute! I'd love to wear it, along with the OH SHI one you did.

^ "Very, very original?" Riiight... I guess it's because you've only seen 2 designs.

very interesting design...it's too linear though, it makes the design feel awkward. maybe with some shading...

I'm sure you can make some really cute stuff but this one is not working

@GreenRabbit



Have you ever realized that we might just happen to actually like these designs? Why don't you take your assumptions elsewhere?

For that matter, you should probably do something like cyanidee and be polite instead of just yelling at anyone who likes the design. Thanks; have a nice day.



PS: If you wish to contact me because you still think I'm some kinda double account, you may.

That.. isn't me.. o.o' But thanks for being a jerk anyway. We all appreciate.



Also, I only have one account, thanks.



And regardless, it doesn't matter what you think. Threadless can track it if they so desire. :P I know I'm safe.

Aah! You're right. I wanted to shade so badly, but I was afraid of breaching the 8 colour limit. ):

You do realize that your saying that is the equivalent of you knowing one anime artist.. and then saying that every other person who draws anime is just copying their work?





Again, this is a style of drawing.

It's a more japanese/kawaii/anime type of drawing.



@__@



no one person owns it.





I do not want people to get the idea that I am "stealing" someone's style.





I would appreciate it if in the future you did not try and point out that my work looks "just like" someone else's.

It's giving the implication that I'm stealing -__-' Which I'd rather not have to clear up.







HOWEVER~! If anyone has any concerns about this, please feel free to message me/post/etc and I shall give you every peice of support you need to know in the fullest I am not copying/stealing anyone else's work. :D

I like it! I would label it though, cleverly. Sugar, Spice, and maybe all the letters of "EVERYTHING NICE" jumbled up on top of each other in your 'black mess'....



that's my $0.02.



Good stuff.

i like it, it has a message to it and the images

tell the story.

( it's the sweet ones on the outside that could

be poison !)
