I like it but I feel there is too much black in the middle. Voted

said about 1 year ago

it’s meant to more or less look like a thick black line from further away, thanks for the vote!

kooo! nice play with type, but im not sure about the density bein centered. +one!

10285
said about 1 year ago

i thought that a centered density would make the shirt look cooler worn together with quality jeans and accent the wearer’s body as a whole. i agree that a more “free” composition would make the shirt alone look, perhaps, better but probably just the shirt alone.

Cool but not too sure about the about the center. Looks more like a tire mark. But, good stuff.

The dense letters in the middle are OK as the red arrow distracts from it a little bit. So it is good composition for me. Great.

Human_thumbnail_unknown
said 10 months ago

This is a cool design, even though my mind gets a Matrix feel for some reason ;P. THis is basically how my brain works, random letters floating around which I’ve got to piece together to form words.. “Oh, Schnap, that doesn’t go ther!e”.

Human_thumbnail_unknown
said 10 months ago

I really really like it.
Too bad it doesn’t come in female sizes.. a lot of the shirts I would definitely buy are only for guy sized. >:

I like your designs quite a bit. I’m getting tired of sculls and bones so this is kind of refreshing.

Human_thumbnail_unknown
said 5 months ago

dagnis: great tshirt; have bought a pair. Question: So what does the red arrow really signify???

10285
said 5 months ago

I’d say it does the most typical function you could expect from an arrow — points a direction. In this case it accomplishes that function by catching the attention of the viewer first by being red. As a result the viewer notices a little, perhaps even alive being floating in a seemingly pointless soup of letters! And is probably made curious to look for more.

Human_thumbnail_unknown

Really nice work but I can’t find my size.. So reprint S-size please!
