Title: An idea to be improved upon
Post by: Drew on April 20, 2008, 02:58:55 pm

Let me know if you can't see this and I'll see what I can do

If anyone thinks it's a decent idea, but that it could be improved, then go for it. I was also thinking about targets instead of hand prints.

By the way, I did knock this up in about 5 minutes, hence why it looks so shit!

I really like this Drew. The hands are a really cool idea.

all a bit "Five Finger Thing" for me.

and reminiscent of that Channel 5 Documentary "Half man half tree"...

Fair enough but how this t-shirt reminds you of half man half tree is beyond me. That poor guy.... I still can't get over that. HPV. Who would have thought....

Aww, thanks.

I tried getting this inverted (it's actually the Dalai Lama's hand)

or could've gone for targets

but in the time I had, that's all I could come up with. I thought it might've been a bit too much TNF's "Chalk full of attitude" T, but I was going for something that looked like someone had just been spotted.

I was using photo shop, but I couldn't work out how to get that image onto a blue back ground. It just used greyscale. I don't understand!

The target is a bad idea, worm has one tattooed on his back, how we laugh every summer....

The idea was for two target, one on either side, at a point which just about equates with the base of the ribcage (i.e. a decent spot to aim for when spotting)

I think the hand print thing could look really good with a bit of work.
