Hello, Ordering some shirts to identify crew members for hot air balloons. Rough idea is below, but there's a lot of black space and I lack the artistic talent to make it stand out more… even just some simple color accents would help a lot, I think. A few notes: - shirt will be black or dark grey - say/identify "crew" & use realistic balloon shapes, ideally like below - one balloon needs to have the star shape in center (logo) - have small “hotaero.com” domain somewhere on back & Colors: - only white ink on front - up to four bright, solid colors on the back - one must be white - must use solid colors since it'll be screen printed. Printable space is marked on pic. I'll give feedback and answer any questions right away. Payment by paypal as soon as contest ends @ 12:00 noon 10/16 MST Thanks!
Not necessarily, but these are worn in huge crowds where we need to spot 2-3 other guys quickly -- more color would help make that easier.
Here's my idea for the back. http://oi61.tinypic.com/119s8z4.jpg I vectorized all graphics so they will print crisp. The colors are also CMYK (I know you want bright... your sample colors are RGB that only display on screens) Look forward to your thoughts.
Looks great, love the concept. And 10-4 on cmyk vs rgb, was just a draft. With this design I think it's best to save a little and stick with 3 colors; make the orange balloon one of the other colors, keep the pink and white, and swap the teal for more of (I know it won't be like the draft, no worries) a green or blue since we use those colors most. The website also needs to be just a little smaller. Great job.
Not bad & thanks for submitting -- the shapes of the balloons are more 'cartoony' versus realistic though, and since these are for actual pilots and crew they will notice. My avatar is how most real ones look these days. Would also like to keep the 'crew' font clean & white, so it's easy to read.
Thanks for your feedback. I decided to go with the colors from your logo. Here's the revised back: http://i.imgur.com/EGVqGPu.jpg And for the front, I decided to keep it professional with a simple breastplate of your logo: http://i.imgur.com/SJ7Jn6H.jpg ... Though I could also revise it to say "Crew", use just white, etc. Happy to revise as necessary if chosen winner.
Font is a little hard to read but I like the layout and use of the balloons on front and back, nice job. No need to revise yet, would only change font if picked.
Like front #1 the most and back #3, good colors and nice job adding detail to balloons as well; have to decide if with or without the lines looks best. Size of star is perfect. No need to revise yet
