About my design

by boreas
with the cold comes the need for warmth, the desire to have, etc...and envy is spawned from our desires when the first snowfall hits. This is for anyone who feels alone in the dense forests of winter's solace.

Well, I'm sorry I didn't put a fuckin bleeding heart, a bird sillouette, paint drips, or a robot on there. I thought I would just try to be original rather than formulaic and cliche like everyone else on this site. But Old Navy huh?

Old Navy must be printing up some hot shit lately if this falls under their umbrella of influence. The type is splendid and placement looks nice. I'm not sold on the trees as of yet. Perhaps some alteration there or the introduction of another winter reference would make the shirt clearer.



I've got to say though that the lack of hearts, guns, drips, and or birds is refreshing.

This shirt makes me smile. I agree it is refreshhing after looking at some of the morbid shit on here.

I love trees and winter. These trees are reading a bit soft and squishy. WHat about using a clipart silhouette or making the edges more jaggedy?

you should have the viewer fully understand what's on the shirt and what isn't .. it's too confusing as of right now. I like where its going, but i feel it's kind of awkward having the text come all the way to the bottom of the shirt, so that when its worn it wont be able to be seen and takes away from the overall design.. constructive criticism for someone who declined to give me any and instead made cracks at my username.



boreas, can you re-evaluate my shirt and tell me what i can do better? the only reason it's so dark is because that i did design a "different" shirt like yours and it didn't score well here, so i moved on to trying to please this type of audience... so if you have any positive suggestions, please leave them for me on my page.
