Hey, Cool Shirt: Designing Effective T-shirt Graphics

Ooo these are some nice reference images. I really like the little sketches. It took me a second to get the idea (i'm slow) but I hthink they might look better as an illustration rather than a shirt. I think if you're going to do something for Nike you could have a lot more fun like drawing a cute little turtle with big shoes all smiley like that sun image you attached. Or a cartoon moon running around the earth. But I really like this direction, especially if it's for nike because you never see that stuff but I could totally see them doing it.

Thanks Chris! Do you think an illustration would be better b/c it takes a few seconds to process rather than being an immediate which would be better for a tee? Just making sure I understood right :DThank you for the feedback!! Lindsey

It's definitely a plus and negative. you want to draw them in with something witty and fun, then have them read something. So as long as you have something big, you can also have something small. 'naw mean?

Hey Chris and class,
Attached are the iconic/painterly styles after my quick sketch of the t-idea. I'd like to learn to replicate this simplified painterly style for the class. As far as a brand I'd like to sell to, I am thinking maybe Delias or Nike depending on the idea.
