GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ New T-shirt Design
Posted by: Bondy Mar 7 2010, 08:41 PM
Hey fellow GMCers I bought some T-shirt templates for PS and though my first assignment would be to do a new GMC Tee, Hope you like it I personally would like to get this made for myself if I can get approval, any critique welcome I'm sure there will be some lol.
Front
Back

I think it is not enough "guitar flavored".
Posted by: Bondy Mar 7 2010, 09:08 PM
I suppose, was just trying stay away from just sticking a guitar on the front with some fancy patterns,
Posted by: Rik Veldhuizen Mar 7 2010, 09:09 PM
like it... where can I order ?
Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Mar 7 2010, 09:27 PM
Nice work Bondy! I like the t-shirt color but I'm not sure if I like the site name parts in different rows But its a cool t-shirt overall!
Posted by: kaznie_NL Mar 7 2010, 09:33 PM
Hmm... It took me 10 seconds to figure out that the two things on the right were guitar leads 
haha, my level is just too low 
But I really like how you did that with PS, How is it possible to make something on a texture like a T?
I'd like some more guitar things in there as well, but I really like the colours (black and brown) and the back side textures 
Posted by: Fran Mar 7 2010, 09:34 PM
I like the cables up there
It looks great, but maybe a strat silhouette somewhere in there would make it even cooler, maybe in the bottom right corner or something
Posted by: Staffy Mar 7 2010, 09:43 PM
It looks great, but personally I would have taken in the text a little bit, since its gonna get disappearing at the side of the body in my belief. Also the cables looks great - but what about to make some small empty lines to accentuate that they are plugs, f.ex at the tip of the plug, and maybe where the cable goes into to the plug... I think You get my idea here... otherwise it's cool!!!

I wouldn't have put 2 cables. One is enough IMHO. I like the design. It's not very guitar oriented but GMC.net is not only about guitar right ?
Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Mar 7 2010, 10:37 PM
lol I thought those two cables were a Mic stand 
Posted by: Sollesnes Mar 7 2010, 10:39 PM
It's good that it's not all that guitar oriented, and I like the idea with the two cables (but I would swear it was a microphone and a microphone stand until I read the comments here, and tried to look at it as guitar cables ). I would buy the t-shirt for the back texture alone! It should be on the front as well
edit: oh, the texture is the inside?
Posted by: GrindGuer Mar 7 2010, 10:45 PM
So did I.
The shirt is nice. But I'm surprised by the difference of texture between the front and the back.
Posted by: MickeM Mar 7 2010, 11:12 PM
Cool!!
I like the moderate design, it works for the look! In oppose to a huge guitar all over the place... which has been seen before on guitar shirts
The crossed cords makes it unclear it's cords/plugs. What about carrying them over the shoulder so the hang down from there?
I like the rough cloth too. I'll have av XXL please!!!
If you make more guitar designs (without the obvious guitars on them) I think that'd be powercool!
------
Btw, if you make a series of rocknroll shirts for kids with own design, infants up to 11-12 let me know. I run a store (toys and clothes) and could carry them. Would need big volumes though, more than I can carry. I can find printers and textile from asia. For volumes distributors needed also in UK, Germany etc.
Posted by: NoSkill Mar 7 2010, 11:14 PM
I like the subtlety of it. Not overtly guitarish, but stylish enough if anyone cares to look closer. I really like it.
Posted by: zen Mar 8 2010, 12:08 AM
Love It !!!
Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Mar 8 2010, 03:13 AM
Nice T-Shirt Bondy. Will we see some more samples, or this is the final version?
Posted by: Hammerhead Mar 8 2010, 07:24 AM
I also thought the cables were a mic and stand 
I like the idea of a strat, perhaps offset to the side and bottom of the shirt.. but what if it could somehow be made out the outline of the "Earth" or something that recognizes the global citizens of GMC? or maybe many flags from all around the world?
I like what you've done tough... I'll take one in XL! 
Posted by: Bondy Mar 8 2010, 09:10 AM
Thanks for all the comments guys I appreciate them, I will make a few adjustments based on your suggestions and upload some more samples to this thread.

That sounds awesome Mickem I will get thinking on that, kids Tees are a whole other ballgame.
Posted by: Mr T Mar 8 2010, 09:16 AM
I like it, it's subtle about being a guitarists shirt, it's not overdone.
Posted by: Bondy Mar 8 2010, 11:10 AM
Ok heres a quick update of the tee changed it to a body temp so you can see how the shirt will look on taken of the guitar lead added a guitar for the people that wanted one, changed the colour of text obviously all the parameters can be changed. depending on suggestion I think I may whip up a few more designs then start a separate thread with a poll if you guys are up for that 
Posted by: MickeM Mar 8 2010, 03:11 PM
It has to be "cute" even for the 11-12 yer olds. Just like GMC we don't decorate our walls in the store with bad language
And no satan, no hell, no blood, no death, no weapons etc etc etc. A true challange! Yeah, think it over.
Posted by: NoSkill Mar 8 2010, 03:50 PM
I'm still leaning towards the first one. I like the smaller lettering. Just my 2 cents.
Posted by: Fran Mar 8 2010, 04:58 PM
I like the strat there, bu I agree the letters would look better if they were a bit smaller. I really liked the cable plug, someone mentioned it would look cool hanging from the shoulder, I agree
Posted by: kaznie_NL Mar 8 2010, 05:03 PM
I like second one better then first Maybe do something with the from Zero to Hero? But not sure 'bout it I also really liked the idea of the hanging cable over the shoulder
Posted by: Praetorian Mar 8 2010, 05:46 PM
Second one is MUCH better!
Posted by: Adrian Figallo Mar 8 2010, 05:53 PM
i love the second one man!, sign me up for one
Posted by: Crazy_Diamond Mar 8 2010, 05:58 PM
I love the 2nd one Bondy I would buy it .....
Posted by: Hammerhead Mar 8 2010, 06:05 PM
Great work... I like the 2nd one better also
Posted by: Bondy Mar 8 2010, 07:17 PM
Ok heres a another variation on the second design with smaller text and the guitar cable and a jokey one I was feeling a bit retro dont take it seriously wont do the space invader one lol. dont worry if you prefer an older version hopefully we can get a few versions made
Posted by: MickeM Mar 8 2010, 08:58 PM
funny, I don't get it which makes it so great! 
I love the idea that someone could come up and ask - Hey, what does that space invaders with shooting guitars mean?
- Mate, I don't have a clue....
like suicide doors, what were they thinking? 
Posted by: Fran Mar 8 2010, 09:02 PM
That space invaders one is pure genious!!
It would be awesome if you add BPM instead of Score
Also, some letters missing in the last line would be cool, as if they had been shot
I'm so getting that T-shirt if it ever becomes real
Oh! One last thing, what if you put 4 huge picks there instead of the usual 4 shelters?
Posted by: MickeM Mar 8 2010, 09:20 PM
shot down letters

I realy like this one Bondy.... You are really good with photopsop (unless you use another software )
Keep on your good work !!!
Posted by: blindwillie Mar 9 2010, 08:05 AM
And no satan, no hell, no blood, no death, no weapons etc etc etc. A true challange! Yeah, think it over.
Why even bother to put on clothes then
A new tagline maybe. "Without metal I rather go nekkid"
Posted by: Gitarrero Mar 9 2010, 08:44 AM
Great shirts, personally I like the third one best, but the space invaders theme is awesome as well!
Posted by: Fran Mar 9 2010, 10:50 AM
Amazing Bondy, I wish the space invaders one became true
Posted by: Bondy Mar 9 2010, 10:53 AM
)Thanks Crazy very nice of you to say.

Hopfully we can get both printed.
I'm sure we can make it real if we all ask the Kris nicely.

Awesome job Bondy, these T-shirt designs are starting to deserve their own space on our knowledge base art section
I still love invaders 2nd edition the best
Posted by: Praetorian Mar 10 2010, 02:38 PM
Nice work bro! I wish I knew how to use that program. I have tried...it is overwhelming!
Posted by: Emir Hot Mar 11 2010, 02:25 AM
Great work man. I vote for "picman", looks RnR
Posted by: NoSkill Mar 11 2010, 03:14 AM
Space Invaders with a REC Score.
I wonder if "Picman," eating notes would be too much?
Posted by: Ivan Milenkovic Mar 11 2010, 03:01 PM
Ahahaha, the pickman is funny! possibly some notes would be a good idea
