About my design

by Invader_Xan
I hope you all don't mind another martini glass submission... somehow, martini glass is just synonymous with cocktail. Graphically speaking.



Erm... anyway. Hope you like it. =)

very cool idea

I like the idea, however, the cloud seems to be coming from behind the glass, as opposed to over or in, and that bothers me a bit.

Now you mention it, I agree... Do you think it might help fix it if I cut away part of the glass rim (you know... implying the shape above it)?



Thanks for the feedback guys. =)

It doesn't look like the explosion is coming out of the glass. It looks like it's behind it.

you could have added "make drinks not war"

I really like the concept and illustration, but I do agree with ddcrandall.



I would bring the explosion lines down into the glass.

It's da bomb! (sorry bad pun i know).

Looks like tabasco sauce with a dash of absynth.

Mmm, nice.

Great concept, but like others have said, the explosion isn't placed right. It also feels like the glass is too small.



I'll give it a 3.

You need to remove part of the rim in the back and move the mushroom cloud down so it's tail is partially in the glass. It'd be cool if it were a different color... When was the last time you had an orange cocktail? And last but not least, maybe add some condensation or a couple drips around the rim of the shaker.

I agree with all the comments... Mai Tai's and Sex on the Beaches and Screwdrivers are all orange or orangey pink though. And those are just the normal ones.



I would love it if the shaker bombs fell vertically and the Martini Glass was at the bottom of the shirt. It makes for a less awkward placement espcially for the glass. $4 though, if the glass is moved.

i like the shaker bombs, i would buy the shirt if it was just the shaker bombs right where they are and nothing else.

Thanks for all the comments!



I actually thought first about dropping the bomb (boom boom!) vertically, but then I looked through some of the other Extra Tasty submissions and decided it looked a bit too much like illustraTom's submission. Placement was kinda tricky.



Heh... Make Drinks Not War. Nice. =)

As everyone said, the mushroom cloud looks like its coming from behind. Really nice idea though, and nice design.
