Is the text a quote from something

Could you please specify that this is a passion project / not for sale in the future when you post designs? I know you have before and you were invited to post your work, we’ve just had a history of people attempting to market here and would like to avoid it. I think the graphic is neat, I am not attached to the text or the size of the logo.

i completely understand and nah i dont want to sell it i do wanna do graphic design in the future but this is just practice stuff. I appreciate an actual response 😄 intresting with the logo do you think it should be smaller?

I would prefer it to be smaller or maybe even on the back centered below the collar personally I am also almost uniformly Not A Logo Guy

It works for some brands (fog, supreme, prl) because of its recognizability but I’m not sure it has the same impact for unknown labels and can detract from what might be a cooler piece

evienotrealityOP5mo ago
i see that does make a lot of sense

That is more visually interesting and less harsh across the board The logo is also not immediately recognizable as a logo yk In the second shirt

yhhh i feel that

Which I think is a positive

do you think that in the first one that the words are not needed

I do not know if I have the cultural context for the quote (if there is one) to make that call But in the absence of that context I prefer the graphic without the text

i did spend a lot of time on the graphic so maybe it should be more in the light

I think the logo is a little crowded in its box so it looks awkward, the text needs a little adjusting in terms of readability if you want to keep it, the kerning is off in “of a” and the text overlapping the graphic in those colors makes it hard to parse. Agree that the actual graphic is stronger than the rest of the package

its just a lyric from a song i think i just wanted to push the theme but i think i do like just the graphic

maybe a bit more centered tho
bishopcorrigan

I think you should give the graphic more room, you have to remember that shirts are curved when you wear them so you have a lot less space than it feels when it’s flat, so unless you want to intentionally hide parts of the graphic you should make it a little smaller For reference put on a t shirt and feel where the side seam is under your armpit

Then measure from that to where it actually starts to be the “front” of your body Then you will get a more exact sense What program are you working in? If you’re using illustrator you can use actual scale to help

photoshop atm ohhh i see i have the program ill check

Photoshop can work in inches too it’s just more annoying tbh I like illustrator for this because it’s so easy to compare different versions You have the whole space to make duplicates and modify them next to each other It’s often worth it to use photoshop only for the parts you really need to, then import those assets into illustrator to play around more quickly

evienotrealityOP5mo ago
i see i need to get more into illustrator i basically exlusivelt use photoshop
bishopcorrigan

Yeah it’s a really great tool for graphic design, working in vector has a ton of benefits It’s a little confusing at first though

evienotrealityOP5mo ago
yeah we went through it at the start of the semester but i couldnt get the hang of it maybe its worth going back to

Even just throwing on some YouTube tutorials for random things you will pick up little tricks to apply to your own work

appreciate the comments brother actually helped me out i wanna get better BAHA

Holding option when you drag something in illustrator makes a copy when you let go, that’s like the most useful shortcut Dw it just takes time which is annoying at first but you’ll get better quickly Also good to do analysis of work you think is good and try to understand why it works
