From Young Gentlemen

About the design

Submitted by Salamanderlich on July 15, 2009

What better represents "Pre Loved" than old toys?



The idea for "From Young Gentleman" , besides being heavily influenced by Young Flapjack

was about like the toys of a previous generation - about not only the love they held towards them but the values that they represent.

Like how today kids have Construction toys, or fake power tools - kids should be handymen and tough and stuff.



Technical Stuff:

I'm not sure how transparent the Simulated Process inks are; the pattern and the sheep are two separate layers, if needed I can select the Toy layer and delete it from the pattern layer.



And thanks for your help in the critique!

YES!

-Awesome! Got approved and everything in only one day! Does that mean the staff liked it?

They may have liked it, but it seems as though they were trying to get all the preloved stuff out before the weekend. They dumped about 5 pages worth onto the site in two days, as opposed to the 10 or so designs per day of preceding weeks.

It's quite sweet, but you might have tried wallpapering the whole shirt? It seems a bit lost. Too late for critiques though, right?
