About my design

by caaggeedd
something silly i thought up and decided to go through with it. flamingos always reminded me of soldiers because of the way they stand and it looks like theyre marching...so...heres a design to emphasize that.

Wow, I really like this shirt for some reason. I also always thought Flamingos were kinda miltaristic in thier stance. I'm diggin the blue color for the shirt. I almost kinda want the flamingo to be at the end, it would make it look like he wants to join the ranks with the humans. Anywho, awesome shirt. Would buy it if it gets printed.

hmm thats a good idea actually i never thought of that..i put him this way so it looked like he kind of wanted to blend in but i guess it works both ways!

Is this supposed to be some political thing about gays in the military? Flamigos are like the Liberachies (SC) of the animal kingdom.

Pretty sweet, I'd like it in olive. Falmingos rule! You should just specifically make the Falmingo pink. Thats it. *5*

Beautifully absurd. Fivenbuy. I almost don't even care what color it ends up as.

the flamingo has nothing to do with gays, at least that I can decipher. he's just there because he wants to be.

it'd work better if it was a line of flamingos and one of them had a rifle.

I would also adore it if the flamingo were pink

I am thinking along the same lines of this t-shirt for another design...but it's a line of soldiers with a family of ducklings trailing behind.



I'll not bother though. It would be derivative...

Flamingo's don't remind me of soldiers. They are pink and graceful. Erm?

Lol, I do like the suggestion of the flamingo being pink.



A subtly appealing shirt.

i think the flamingo should most diffently be pink.

and stick to the rule of nature and have odd numbers when you have a grouping...

like have four soldiers and the flamingo inthere as the fifth but not at the end... like soldier soldier soldier flamingo soldierright now it looks like too much.

I agree, get ride of one soldier, make the flamingo pink, and keep the blue color shirt. LOVE IT!

yes this shirt is oddly great.

its so appealing for some reason! people will just stare and go WTF?!

make the flamingo pink most definitely.

and yeah, get rid of one of the soldiers because its a tad crowded.

great concept!

i think the way you have it spaced now, is giving the flamingo dpeth, like he's walking in front of the line.



if you want him to 'blend in' id say space him evenly, like you 've done with the soldiers.



i wouldnt do it pink, that'll take too much away from your silhouette thing you got rockin.



work a little bit on your sizing/placement and it'll be perfect.



colours are decent. leave as-is.
