Create a balanced T-shirt graphic
In an era of tough T-shirt design competition, Jared Nickerson shows you how to make sure your threads are quality.
In this tutorial I'll talk you through the creation of a well-arranged, busy T-shirt design, using 'Temper, Temper' - a design of mine that's currently available at www.designbyhumans.com - as the springboard.
While I'd recommend having fun with your own elements, to start you off, the drawn elements that I've used in my design are provided on the disc. When using the provided images, make sure you have 'Scale Strokes & Effects' enabled in the Preferences panel, as the objects have variable-sized strokes. That's the beauty of vector: nothing is irreversible.
