This was a final and I'd say the humor is in good taste. That's what worked well. What was challenging about this was managing the layers. I needed to find a way to keep all the text and layers separate, which was challenging, but I successfully organized them. Next time, I'm going to either get payed money to do this or pay a large sum of money in order to get a degree for graphic design. I used adobe illustrators text tools, along with a few custom fonts.

This project was about creating anything we wanted for a t-shirt design. A lot worked well this time around. I was able to make a neat emblem of one of my favorite masks from Bionicle, and it worked well because it pretty much looks exactly like it. You can just see the beauty in the figure standing up holding his arms up in a surge of vitality. The most challenging thing for me in this was the tracing of the eye slits. They were a bit difficult because I had used a bit map photo to trace around and squares are not an accurate representation of what something is composed of. Terrible system. Next time I would definitely not use a bitmap photo, those are the worst. I used adobe illustrator's trace tool and paint tool for this. I might actually try to make pen traces of other bionicle masks in the future, because they are pleasing to the eye and have a nice crispness to them.
