    any advice

  • #2
    Exactly what kind of advice are you looking for? What is this piece for? What is it trying to communicate? Hard to tell what's going on since it's in outline view.

    We ask all new members to have a read through these important threads with the rules, FAQs and such so you'll know a bit more about how this place runs.

      I'm not looking for a specific type of advice. Just any way you would think it could make it better. It's obviously representing the Aquarius zodiac sign. I don't see what's so difficult looking at it in outline view. It pretty much looks like I just removed all the color.

        Not sure why you're showing the outlines to be critiqued as this isn't how it's going to look like when finished.

        What do the strokes of the lines look like? Have you used varied widths? Obviously the lines won't all be overlapping in the final one so I guess it will look more simplified.

        To me, the water bearer looks less important than the thing with wings. Perhaps the water bearer should be more in the centre.

          We can give you a much more thorough critique if you show it in the regular colored view.

            They're both water bearers. The winged person is squirting water from their mouth.

                Oh, gosh -- sorry! I was tied up doing other stuff. *ahem*

                You have a need for other people to like and admire you, and yet you tend to be critical of yourself. While you have some personality weaknesses you are generally able to compensate for them. You have considerable unused capacity that you have not turned to your advantage. Disciplined and self-controlled on the outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure on the inside. At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing. You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations. You also pride yourself as an independent thinker; and do not accept others' statements without satisfactory proof. But you have found it unwise to be too frank in revealing yourself to others. At times you are extroverted, affable, and sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, and reserved. Some of your aspirations tend to be rather unrealistic.

                O_:-}

                  If this is more of an art piece with no clear message to communicate, then there's not much to critique. If you are your own client and you're happy, then you're all set.

                    Thanks.

                    I took a look at luxe -- looks good. Looks like it's digitally printed -- would that be as good as litho or letterpress?

                    Engraving sounds interesting. I'll look into...

                    Similar, but more expensive and classy, is engraving. Combining an ultra-minimalist, bare-bones design with something as elegant, tactile and expensive as engraving can really have a nice, exclusive,...

                    Typographic illustration intrigues me. I have seen many of the posters of popular quotes, or inspiration posters etc, online and in pins on pinterest etc that have words, lyrics etc in different shapes,...
