well i dont know much about design myself but i do know what i like, and personally i really like that! i like the colours youve used and the kind of 60s/70s psychedelic (sp) feel to it,and i like the way they are standing-getting smaller then larger if you look one way but can also be getting larger then smaller if you look the other.
Probably not very useful feedback im afraid,as i said i dont know much about design, but i like it !

| I really like it although to be honest Im not really sure i like the closest siloutte shape....something odd about it but that could just be me. Theres a lot to look at and the colours are great... really interesting. Is it for anything in particular? |

Looks great - my only feedback would be about the 2 closest figures and their arms. I would put the "holes" in - if that makes sense - otherwise they look a bit like wings.... Also the figure in the bottom left looks a little out of place. Otherwise - love the colours and the general "feel" of it. Well done! ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Agree with Caitlinsmygirl, very psychedlic 60s/70s esp with the lime green. I don't get the figure in the bottom left hand corner though? The first figure looks angelic is this what you intended? Whats is for? ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

when i first looked at it i thought it showed a progression from person to angel at the end - with the differences in the arms etc.... is that what you intended or am i reading WAY too much into it????
very cool, looks like a diet coke ad  ------------- Lyla - mum to Xanthe -  my big 4 year old

Aheh...Thanks all for the comments.
Interesting thoughts there. Wow. thats high praise (Coke ad & Album cover) methinks. Thanks.
That was a very interesting exercise. Now to answer your questions. I made it...for no particular reason. I'm stressed at the moment and I was up way too late last night, doing that green/pink stuff when I should've been sleeping or doing the ACTUAL design work I was supposed to be doing. I saw something in a brochure I am doing for a client. I took that silhouette (which I also did ages ago for that guy) put some things around it, changed it and cut it up, added things, deleted things, did some random things, added those funky circles, cut them up, chucked some text around, deleted most of the text, move it this way, then that way, turned some things upside-down and back-to-front, pulled stuff to the front and moved others to the back, added colour, didn't like it, changed it some more, wiped all the colour out and only had one colour. I chopped up some "Edwardian" font letters (thats that twirly stuff) glued them together, made something completely not like a letter, twirled it around more, splattered them around, pushed and prodded, pulled and poked, turned and twisted until I could hardly keep my eyes open. I had a feeling of "change" when I was making it, but I think now, I didn't get those two front people right. They looked weird when I posted it, and they still do. Your guys comments about angel was interesting. I don't think that was my intent but I liked hearing what you thought of the pic without my interference. I think, once somebody mentions "angel", suddenly everyone starts to see it.
I was originally going to make an orange design but that never happened!!
Again thanks for all your comments. I appreciated all comments, and quoted ones who I wanted to bring a point out of. If anyone wants to use this for anything feel free to PM me and I'll send you a better version. I scaled it down for the forum. ------------- Defending the male species since 1980

I can see the gradual change in the people but the last one is too different from the previous like there are no legs AND arms are different where as the previous ones have only had one change made but thats probably just me being pedantic!
Glad you didnt go orange, i like the colours (and i hate orange) |
