05/19/2014 Top Picks – Daily Shirt Designs

| jjlockhartdesign

Hello loyal readers! I’m shaking things up a bit today so bear with me…

So I only picked 2 shirt designs today. I am changing it up a little because no other design really caught my attention. Going forward I will be posting only the daily designs which truly captivate me so I can give them their due. I don’t want to be stuck with a rigid 3 design quota, and this allows me more wiggle room. I hope you enjoy!

05/19/14 Top 2 Pick; Boba The Animated Series

Have you noticed all the Star Wars and Batman designs lately? Well here’s a little of both. The lone bounty hunter stands tall, surveying the scene. Wonderful, strong silhouette stands surrounded by warm copper tones and cool glowing blue details. Boba’s armor, jetpack, and cape cast a strikingly similar silhouette to Batman, which fits nicely. I really enjoy the brown copper color which I feel I rarely see paired with that bright blue. The contrast of these two colors gives the design dimension. As a designer, it is always fun to try different color combinations. Sometimes they work and unfortunately sometimes they don’t. I think this color combination was a success, I’ll have to store it in my color combo memory bank.

Thank You Nicko Designs

05/19/14 Top 2 Pick; Frosty Flakes

Cool down this summer with Elsa and Shirt Punch. These Frosty Flakes are Grrrrrreat! and magically delicious! Wonderful, well-balanced composition. I love the variation of color and thickness of the outlines. Elsa’s large bright eyes and wind-swept braided hair looks well rendered. The rest of the design consists of a wintry background with snowflakes for a well-rounded composition with depth.  I greatly enjoy the snowflake cut out shape that helps the figure’s cape transition to the shirt. Yes, I do catch these small details, and I love them!

05/09/2014 Top 3 Picks – Daily Shirt Design

05/09/14 Top 3 Pick; Sherlock Skull

Bright and appealing royal blue color behind a simplified black and white image. Although the figure is rendered in high contrast, there is a great amount of detail portrayed through textures and forms. This is especially evident in the well-formed human skull. I really enjoy the “Sherlock” hidden in the folds and curves of the figure’s garment. I also very much enjoy the use of the chemical molecules, gears, and binary in the background to create a wonderful, interesting texture. It also adds nice complexity which represents the figure’s mental processes. Brilliant!

Thank You Zerobriant!!!

05/09/14 Top 3 Pick; SeaWheaties

What to have for breakfast? “…Life’s full of tough choices isn’t it?” The evil Sea Witch would like for all you poor unfortunate souls to start your day off right! Wonderful render of  this aquatic villain. Her curling, bright purple tentacles pull you in while her open reaching hands seem to go to grab you for a taste of these yummy treats. I love that her large voluptuous arms break the rectangular frame of the design. The treatment of the larger text is interesting and dynamic due to the angle in which it is in and looks great behind a well-balanced, symmetrical foreground. Ursula is not responsible for any injury or status you may incur including: loss of voice, new legs, your father’s wrath, or true love’s first kiss.

05/09/14 Top 3 Pick; DaMasks

This damask print is covered in masks! Is this design available for wallpaper? Wonderful pattern full of lovely little details. I love how at first glance the design seems so simple and elegant, then under careful inspection, you discover it is filled with lovely and nerdy masks from all over pop culture! Each mask is delicately treated and placed nicely in a grid. I very much enjoy that each mask is portrayed using only two colors and still contains enough detail to be easy recognized. Can you name them all?
