"One Gear, One Year", T-shirt Design Competition.

price determines that it's two colour front/ one colour back

on black t shirts only [gildan ultras]

and as mouse says - it's a competition so there'll be voting on the submitted designs

//as mentioned before, it's about the idea, if you've got a boss idea but are rubbish at colouring in just do a rough sketch and if it's chosen we'll make sure it looks the business//

matt (baddesigner) [quote]nimhbus another thought -what about the great work done for the original spoke card competition? great designs, and only been used once, and only for a ltd. run card - Slamm's Underground map is superb, and could surely be adapted into a V2.0 for the T-shirt?
remember, we all may have seen it, but the rest of the world hasn't!

i agree, i'd vote for slamm's map[/quote]

I don't remember it but isn't Slamm's map in lots of colours? I thought this had to be a 1 colour affair.~~

Beaten by 9 minutes. I need to refresh more.

i just had a really good idea.

i shall submit ASAP

it's got to be black.

it's not metal enough otherwise.

DEATH TO FALSE METAL!!

Good artist's borrow. Great artist's steal!
Reworked enough and would look great on black and on white.
I was gonna add something along the lines of "Runs Like Clockwork" but wasn't too sure!?
Running Like Clockwork since 2007?
Could change the hat to a cycling cap too.

With cycling cap!...

I like it, what about more of an orange colour?

I was just about to say I love the clown idea (which I do), but that is ace! Could you take off the 'congratulations'?

ok wayne i'm in, in that case.
Really what i would like is for the finished image to resemble an instruction booklet, vector lines a bit like this:

My idea is roughed up below, (sorry for the sprocket again hippy but it 1 year 1 gear, a sprocket is after all a gear)
Basically i really wanted a baby with a dummy that is a sprocket and the little fella in these photos melted my heart, which is what i see all mercedes drivers doing when we unzip our jackets and flash at them......aaaaaaah i want a bike. Positive mental attitude rather than 'ROCK YEAH! we ride bikes'
Any way someone with some illustrator skills like this enough to taking from the drawing board? Neil?
b

Do we get different tones of the two colours?

squag I like it, what about more of an orange colour?

Can make it any colour. Was gonna do 'ultraviolent' pink to match the original clockwork orange press books and posters which came out before the film's release. I'll put some colour choices together. The yellow was from the penguin cover.

photoben I was just about to say I love the clown idea (which I do), but that is ace! Could you take off the 'congratulations'?

Could do. Would like to write something there though. Thought the campag style type worked and 'congrats' summed up the forums birthday. Ideas welcome.

put one there...

or put the lips back to normal, and put londonfgss, on the cap peak?

31t®um or put the lips back to normal, and put londonfgss, on the cap peak?

Like this.
If people are interested in the design I'll make a final version to put up for the vote.
What's everyones preference?
Colour?
Teeth?
Writing on cap?

it needs lips, but i like blue on black with londonfgss on the cap.

the one you've just done fella^^ the lips/teeth looked a bit weird for me

i don't think many outsiders will get it to be honest :)

most of my non-bike mates don't have a clue what i'm chatting about when it comes to bikes... they just think i'm mental :)

big daddy wayne the one you've just done fella^^ the lips/teeth looked a bit weird for me

Agreed!

clockwork orange with cycling cap is an excellent concept, really horrowshow, O my brother. i agree text layout needs work though.

i think the head/shoulders should be on it's own in the centre, with text underneath, or just on the back maybe.

and maybe the cap should have a rapha stripe to reprezent the west'ie' massive.

service medal concept :

on the back ; 1 gear 1 year

1 idea (I know, it's the cog again! but started this for the party flyer initially )

• got another in the pipeline, will hopefully get it finished before the deadline.
  
  

Not sure whether this would be better on front or back.
"http://www.londonfgss.com" to go at the bottom of opposing side in same font.

I think a very simple T-Shirt in the I love NYC style stating

I heart

"My fixie bike"

"Fixies"

....

PS I am only joking.

. . . with a cog for the heart.

that would be smashing.
