Description kopfmΓ€dchen (kopfmedshen): 1. a girl who isn't as in touch with her body as she'd like to be
2. A beautiful head without a body

ANYWAY
work in progress T-SHIRT DESIGN for who is opening a design shop in Eindhoven (NL) sometime soon.
Up in here: [link] (Onigiri . nl)

I hope to improve on this piece-- but here's the basic idea. We still need to figure out if this print is feasible as a silk screen.. but hey

i'm absolutely taken with the lines and the flow of her hair!! the way it seems to become a heart at the bottom to make up for the lack of body. i love the concept too, it's so funny the way words are born and the way they are used in modern day <3

Well! I have no idea. There's the dropdown menu beside the logo top left that has a heart icon which says 'daily deviations'... hope you find what you're looking for!

KΓΆpfmΓ€dchen...that's a really interesting word. I love how languages can have such specific words like that!

Anyway, I love this. It's very elegant and simplistic, which is perfect for a tshirt graphic. Love the colors! Good luck with your tshirt printing endeavor!

maar heb jij niet in fotosjop dat als je gaat half-tonen dat ie er allerlei andere kleuren bij verzint? dit moet zo weinig mogelijk kleuren zijn zodat het goedkoop printen blijft..

Je moet de kleurlaag eerst zwart-wit maken. Waar de hoofdkleur het donkerst is, zet je om naar helemaal zwart. Dan maak je er een zwart-witte halftone van. Die kun je dan vervolgens inkleuren met de donkerste waarde van de hoofdkleur en dan heb je een goede halftone :3 Snap je het een beetje?

When I saw this on tumblr I thought it was Jugendstil-inspired but when I look at it now I think it looks like it's a heart connected to her head. I don't know if that was what you were going for but that's what I see and I think it's an interesting piece to look at

The only comment I have to improve this is that you might want to define her bottom lip just a tiny bit more? And maybe play around with line thickness a little, see what happens when you accentuate parts of the drawing?

ANYHOW. I like it

yeap it's a heart I better go fix that so it's a little more obvious, I wanted to make it subtle but maybe this is too subtle.
thanks for your suggestions, line thickness is definitely a good idea-- i tried some things with her bottom lip, none of which really worked before, but i'll see if i can choose between the lesser of two evils.

arigatoo <3
