Urgent: T Shirt Design WIP (Mariolee)

[Mariolee]

Here's what it should look like on a t shirt (the final design):

[Manuel_Alejandro95]

Now my only complaint is that such a pic should be (At least to me) in the back of the t-shirt. I'd preffer a small version of it in the upper-left (My left) corner of the front.
Just nipticking, or maybe I've always dreamt about such layout on a non-corporative t-shirt.
Turned out great, better than I thought tbh.

[Flexx]

Nice, but try cleaning up the bottom of the scratches (the little curves.) It looks a little weird with so many of them.

Looking awesome. I also agree with Crotale about the lion looking like a dog, if you look at the left of the lion it looks like a dogs face and the right looks like the rest of the body. But if you look from the right of the lion it looks like a lion.

I would do that, but I can't. The back is saved for advertising various companies.

Alright, I also thought it was a bit overwhelming with all the curves.

Try as a I might, I cannot see a dog there. It's probably because I know what's supposed to go where, but it just doesn't appear that way to me.

ONE VITAL QUESTION YOU GUYS: DOES IT LOOK GOOD AND IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO TO IMPROVE IT?

ONE VITAL QUESTION YOU GUYS: DOES IT LOOK GOOD AND IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO TO IMPROVE IT?

Well, It may be my monitor, but I think s more bright yellow would be nice, like:

After:


Before:


Again, It may be just my monitor.

I would do that, but I can't. The back is saved for advertising various companies.

Always advertising.
Always.

What's the significance of the lion? I think it would be so much better if you had a person running with their arms up and some finish line tape dangling. It's gimmicky, but it's obvious as hell that the guy just won his race. A lion and paw print just doesn't make sense to me. I like the idea you have going, but I would also like to see the rest of the text incorporated into the design. I get that the back is for advertising, but can't you move the whole run to win stuff down and then at the top put the beginning of that quote in smaller letters above "run to win" and also make it gold?

Well, apparently the lion is the mascot of the school.

Can you explain the dog's paw?

It's a lion's paw print. The school mascot is a lion.

Thanks Manuel, but when printed, the gold actually is much brighter.

But will that look good? I'll try it out, but in my mind it doesn't look too swell. Do you want to provide an example?

[Manuel_Alejandro95]

Yeah, I guess you're right. I thought that used to happen only when printing in paper or card, didn't know that happened also in cloth, my bad.

[Mariolee]

You know what, you're right. It probably does get darker with cloth. I'll see what I can do.

[Mariolee]

So, last call. Is there anything I should improve?

[Mariolee]

It's that time again. To let you guys know, I lost last time due to a "joke" design of a small cute purple monster winning instead. Yeah. I was pretty heartbroken when I found out I lost to that. But now it's that time of year again, and I'm determined to win. This year, the theme is "Courageous" and I need your help. YES YOU.

First of all, the actual design I'm working on (inspired by Titan38):


Do you guys see the animal I'm trying to replicate? I don't want to tell you what animal because if I tell you, then your mind will instantly recognize it, but I'm going to need real candid comments. Also, does the design just look any good?

Here's an approximation of how it will appear on the actual shirt:


What are your thoughts and what can I work on?

[Spiderpig24]

I like the concept, but I really can't distinguish an animal at all.

I'm trying to make a lion. How do you think I could improve it?

[tmrd]

I can definitely see that its a lion (but I only saw it once you said it was supposed to resemble an animal). Although I like the concept, at the moment it doesn't look very good. I don't really know what could be used to improve it though.

I'm not sure. I'm trying to make a lion out of it but I'm still having trouble. This type of design is something I haven't ventured much into, so I may not be too much of a help.

I still have time to work on this, so I appreciate any sort of criticism.

Ah, I see. So I'll have to really work at trying to make this resemble a Lion more.

Yeah, maybe just more words. Smaller words to add more detailed lines, idk.

Alright, sounds good!
