I like this - has a really cool feel to it.
|
 |
the grey shirt is the best, it would be even better on white like most walls
|
 |
damn... awesome idea
|
|
i say on the back on a 2 inch wide strip going down the sholder you explain what you did about graff and the mayor
|
|
Good idea but I agree with mikeschmidtt, without the explanation it kind of looks like poop smeared on a T shirt.
You could really work on this though, like have a building or brick - something behind it to give it some context...? |
|
i agree w/ mike. Commentary about your ideas on the piece.

there is a something like that going on in New Orleans as well... but its done some some crazy little dude who got permission from the city to go over graffiti with some gray roller paint..... down there he's known as "the grey ghost"
you can even see his work over windows!!! and the same goes for stickers as well... a lot of it seems a little counter productive in my mind |
|
Thanks, I have a good idea with where I should go with this.
"on the docks of memphis with the boombox, nodding out" M. Doughty "Grey Ghost" |
|
This is a POS. Nobody would buy it ... sorry.
|

yeah, this is nice, but as suggested above a back side explanation like " Chicago Mayor Daley…Grafitti Blaster Project" and maybe the city's logo below. Give it an official look, it'd be a cool tourist gift shop item. I mean this honestly, I'd buy it as a momento of a visit to city.

trhaynes... you say that a lot about everybody's design... please consider that just because you wouldn't buy it, doesn't mean no one else would.
great design. it's even better knowing that it has a purpose, that it's making a statement. i would definitely buy it. ----> 4 oh, what about just putting something like "damn the man" on it? haha, that would be great. |

great idea, but the shirt would only make sense and be relavant to people in chicago.
|
|
An explanation would make the politics clear but might make the tshirt too idea-heavy/preachy. I think it already looks a lot like 'removed' graffiti, and there might be ways to re-design it so it looks even more recognizable. Then an exp. wouldn't be needed. Of course then the cicago connection wouldn't be made, but maybe you could add "Chicago 2004" or just "Chicago" on the back?

mike shmit is right
|
|
now that is the shit.
|
|
i like that shirt a lot, and it might be because you converted the file but i'd fix the edges of everything so it's not so pixely

unless they actually come to this site and read our comments and realize that the artist says where he's going with his idea and what it means...just a thought 5...i love it |
