I know something like this has been done before, but I could not get the image out of my head, until I made the design. Then I started getting into Pop Art styles and made a fashion face design.
To me this almost looks like a Miley Cyrus face, but I can assure you, it is not. I used a random model as reference, no one specific, just an image I found online.
Before these I was also into Art Deco, and I still am. I love the geometric shapes and patterns that are all over Art Deco architecture. So the below design is what I worked up. I still have a few more ideas I am playing around with as well.
It reminds me of the front of a space ship, like the ones in Jupiter Rising. Speaking of space ships. At one point I was making space designs. I still think I like Science Fiction stuff the most as I am a bit of a Trekkie. So I put together a few simple designs that I had imagined with a fleet of ships.
Finally, I am also a gamer. I love seeing all the Geek and Game shirts online. So I wanted to add my own twist to the graphic tee market. I worked up an idea I had a while back but could not get my head around it until I sat down to draw it up digitally.
Do you remember the Maxell commercials, with the guy listening to music? This is the one.
This image has been spoofed a thousand times, from the Simpsons to Family guy and more. So I saw this as a perfect platform for gamers. Below is the concept I had for the graphic tee.
I kept it simple, but I think it conveys the point. A guy sitting, playing games that are blowing him away. Just like the guy in the Maxell ad. But this time, there is a flat screen TV and a console. I even have a controller for a game console in his hand, but it is hard to understand. As an extra push towards the Maxell ad, I even used the word "Maximum" to play off the name Maxell.
What do you think? Any of these designs are available for purchase in my store at www.zazzle.com/dafunkd
