For my first project this year I wanted to create a t-shirt design. I wanted to get my name out there and show off what I am am capable of doing. I used illustrator for creating the design, photoshop to clean up the design and then back to illustrator for the t-shirt printer to use. On the front of the sirt is my initials "KW" and on the back is the name of my deign complany if you would call it that with the shield deign I created. To achieve the design I used the line segment tool and paintbrush tools for the logos and live tracing to clean them up when transfering them from photoshop back to illustrator. Looking back, overall it was not a difficult project however getting the shield logo almost perfect in terms of what I invisioned it too look like was very time consuming as well as decideing a color that would look good aswell as practicle. Although I did not learn new skills persay, I did learn ways to clean images up useing photoshop then returnign them back to illustrator. On a scale from 1 to 10 my participation is a 10/10, I had no help with the design only having it printed. The project overal would be a 8/10, the project was successful however the layout of the t-shirt couldve been better and I may have rushed just to have the shirt printed. Please comment and rate, feedback is much apprieciated.
