Designers from around the world are submitting creative designs for wandersign in t-shirt design - custom.
PLEASE READ THE BRIEF BEFORE ENTERING THE CONTEST... it seems were getting a lot of entries from people just digging in their computer and throwing in designs and hoping for the best, without even reading the brief, or knowing what were looking for.
the contest is for 100 dollars to each designer, 5 winning designs, and a free printed version of their design... and maybe future work if we like your style
IF YOUR DESIGN HAS 1 STAR, dont expect any feedback, just re-read the brief
none yet
starting a new tshirt company, no name yet, and thought this would be a great place to get some input
WHAT WERE LOOKNG FOR
id say were looking for a minimalistic style, but that does not mean simple... heres a perfect example
http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urba…jsessionid
the tshirts color should be the predominant color, so maybe its best to not use white (but if it works with your design, then use it). these will be screen printed, so i would have to say a maximum of 4 colors not including the tshirt color
they have to convey some sort of message, maybe some subtle dark humor but without a punchline.... if that makes any sense. for example, in the above tshirt, the best part of that tshirt is the little orange bird.
for more examples of what we like, check bellow
ABOUT PRICE MONEY AND WHAT NOT
there will be 5 winners for this contest, 100 each, maybe more winners if we get a bunch of good entries, and you can submitt more than one entry to win.
i will try to give the best feedback possible. this is the first contest ill be holding, but ive entered in a lot of contest, and know how frustraiting it is when no feedback is given. but just to make sure i focus on the most promising entries, if you dont get at least 3 stars, i might not give detailed feedback.
1 star - sorry, your entry is of pretty low quality and its not what were looking for... id really rather not waste your time, thanks anyways
2 star - you have the skillset, but your not heading in the right direction, read the brief again, or pm me for more examples of what we like and why
3-4 stars, ill give detailed feedback
5 stars - your entry is one of the 5 winners
so yeah, be creative, we might hire you to design more tshirts. you can use vectors, just dont over do it, original artwork will have better chances
heres a couple of example designs we like
download their catalogue where it says "descargar catalogo"... really good example of the kinds of shirts we are looking for

get inspiration from this guy... follows the kind of dark humor style were going for
-flowers (trees would work)
-skulls
-patterns (there has to be a focus)
-something that looks like you just got a bunch of vectors from deviant art and threw them together.... i can do that myself
