Urban Empire New T's (Fall 2006 release)

[dj analog]

After recieving constructive feedback on my last post, I tried to encorporate the advice I recieved into the my new line.
Im still currently hand screening and curing all shirts, however the new t's will come with custom tags as well as screened zip bags.
I might get the new line professionaly screened, Im talking to a screener on Monday.
Also for the fall, we will be releasing 2 hoodys which includes a full-zip hoody colaboration with the brand "Anti-Hype". (ill get pictures up once the samples are ready)
Im estimating the prices of the new t's to still be reasonable, around $15-$18 a shirt (including shipping).
*Note colors of the shirt and inks are not definite, I actually plan on doing 2 different color shirts, and 2 different inks for each design.*
**Also sorry to everyone that I promised a free t-shirt too, I didnt forget about you, I was just really busy, Therefore ill be shipping out Actual Samples ( not t's i fucked up on ) in the next week**

Lastly I created a design today, but im unsure if i should get it printed. Its an Audry Hepburn / Diamonds theme. I know the theme has been over done, so im still unsure wether or not I should get it done. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

the horror tee is the only one i like.

[Brick James]

Overall, pretty solid line you have going. The diamonds and the horror t shirts are your real standout ones. I'm curious how the diamonds one would look with different colors, same for the horror one. I especially like the horror one and I think thats more of an infrared than red, which i like. Everything else is solid, except the all over print one i'm not feeling at all.

[Brick James]

Upon further review, I still like the horror t shirt, but it kinda looks like two ideas combined into one shirt.

*cough* free shirt? *cough*

[Chad Hugo]

Only the ROYALTY tee is manageable.... the rest is THUMBS DOWN unless I was into Gothic apparel and L&D knockoffs. :o

[DUM]

Horror one looks ok to me.

[belladonna]

i like the royalty tee

[go2bed]

skulls? splatters? guns? crowns? diamonds? you read the streetwear hand guide i see. this shit sucks. didnt even attempt to do something original.

[GORILLARMS]

ok......................

haha that shit was funny, the streetwear hand guide....but overall line is decent, keeping it safe with the standards..

[PlaboY]

the Horror tee is extremely nice...the rest of the stuff is kinda ehh...it's cool to start with, but in later season, try for more originality

[etcetera]

uh i like the dimonds n horror but the other stuff is first of all, unoriginal to a high degree and it looks like you took alot of different pictures and just placed the around ur logo (needs work) but i do see how u improved and ur obviously puttin serious time into the idea of a brand period so props overall...im to wimpy n lazy to show my designs until i have a solid line out...for now, maybe ill get sum guts later...

[ballday]

line dosent look 2 bad....as far as the use of skull,guns, diamonds and shyt...noone seems to have a prob with all these other lines recycling this stuff over and over. keep working ...but looks o.k.

[coffee head]

i like the last one alot, the green might but to much on the eyes a white or yellow would look awsome, keep me up to date.

[bapelong]

How did you get that all over print like that and how did you do that with photoshop,and where did you get that font from?????

[dj analog]

Yeah the majority of the shit I made did involve the use of dingbats. I wasnt trying to front like I hand drew all this shit. Half of the people who display their shit on hatebeast are doing the same thing. Whatever though, if you dont like it, dont cop it.

[yeloh474]

stuff is better than the last time, but im not a big fan of freeware fonts. the LEAST you could do is take those and tweak them a little bit to make them more original. freeware fonts tend to have imperfections. anyway, i like the horror one like errrbody else

[Mr.BrightSide]

WTF is dingbats,and where do i get them from??????

[DUM]

Don't start questions with WTF, people are less likely to answer you.

www.dafont.com and go to dingbats, they're icons instead of letters.

Don't educate the newbies too much they might try and take over the world... @_@

OH MAN HEHE YOUR KINDA GAY.....

[Jack]

OH MAN HEHE YOUR KINDA GAY.....

Don't ever say "hehe" and then accuse someone of being "kinda gay" in the same post ever again.

(It kind of makes your post contradictory, in that you are the one who seems kind of gay.)

Anything else you need to know newb?

[Mr.BrightSide]

Yeah,are you gay just wondering????

[ballday]

:) funny kidz

[Jack]

Yeah,are you gay just wondering????

I'm probably going to have to find out where you live and kill you.

[BlameIan]

skulls? splatters? guns? crowns? diamonds? you read the streetwear hand guide i see. this shit sucks. didnt even attempt to do something original.

Werd. Speaking from a designer's standpoint, rosewood was the most overused font of 2005 and all of these graphics are clip art/freeware dingbats. You need to hire a creative instead of straight up using someone else's drawings. Good luck.

[clash and burn]

your designs look a lot like my designs are you sure you aint ripping me off?
