YaS-O,

Your design is nice as well, but we are looking for something that is more mean and tough looking.

I'm having fun with this one. Here's the cleaned up vector version. I made the trebuchet look more like a trebuchet. I kept the rough look of the swoosh and the punkin (I tried flames in the swoosh, but thought it made it look too busy).

This one a keeper?

Kates,

Nice design! Just thought I'd point out that you left out the second "C" in "Chucker".

Good luck!

I like the concept (specially the gourd and country line), but we are looking for cleaner lines rather than the sketch look.

OK, that's an easy fix. So, clean up the pumpkin and the swoosh? Are the trebuchet, people and logo parts OK?

The words are good, but the trebuchet and people are too "sketchy" as well.

Here's a different concept for you to consider.

Well, that's pretty much the entire design. I'll get back to it if I have time. Thanks.

Kates, Nice design!

Thanks Tim! ... posted revised

OK, I'll devote a bit more time to this one -- let's try:

It's a bit less cartoony. The jpeg is of course lower resolution; the vector will print more sharply than this can show. The font in "For Gourd and Country" is one called Army Chalk, thought it looked better for this than what I used before.

If you use it, I want a shirt.

Hey there, design attached. A bit rough, but this is what popped into my head.

Madman,

That is a very clever idea. The font is very classic. Can you try a "meaner" looking font. Thanks for the submission.

Thanks, that is nice.

We'll see about the shirt. You could always come out and see us "rednecks" in action in November at the competition.

**davemies** · 08-06-2009, 09:45 AM

barra - do you mind if i ask what program you made the pumpkin in? it's pretty good

**barra12** · 08-06-2009, 09:53 AM

Hi davemies

Found it as a gif somewhere, can't remember where.
If my idea got any further I'd start to draw from scratch.

Barra,

I like the concept. Very creative. If were to put it on a shirt, we would probably place the design on the back a little higher. Is there any way the fade the edges of the earth so the design can "float" in the middle of the shirt and not have such sharp edges. Does that make sense?

Sure thing, here are a few more examples with different fonts you may like.

I know this one doesn't look mean, but the name of the actual font is Trebuchet MS, so I thought why not put it here :P
