I haven't made anything new lately, besides 3/4 of a map of the south pacific and a dolphin and need to start on a southern right whale illustration as well.

It's really not ready for tshirt design. I hope you can see that.

Colours are WAY too strong. Check out rawksuga's vector stuff, she is pretty good at it. One thing she does that makes them look good is choosing soft colours and distinct outlines.

secondly. what's up with the content. I just don't get "lol! RANDOM". Doesn't appeal to me at all. That's just a preference.

First thing that was said to me when I showed someone the sketch was 'lolwut?'...so it kinda stuck.

It was only a quick job since i'm now practicing this kinda stuff, and a friend has a machine that prints designs onto t-shirts so I thought i'd try and make something so I can have 'unique' clothing.

Since I had to format the laptop i'm using the other day I havn't had time to 'purchase' PhotoShop and Illustrator, so I downloaded some free programme called 'Paint.Net' which is like a fusion of MSPaint, PhotoShop and Illustrator...made things much easier.
