agree on the typeface.

Maybe try it with a sans serif font like Futura (and without the white outline)

Futura is my default font sine I use it a lot for RN stuff

I had a thought that since it had been considered using a pot leaf that we could take it to the next level and have a guy(junkie) laying back passed out with x's for eyes with a huge syringe hanging out of his arm and inside the syringe is a nano-reef!
I think that they call this "tongue-in-cheek" humor.
JK about all this, of course. I do very much like the direction that this is all going! A bunch of grapes next to the glass with the wine bottle is totally cliche' but looks cool anyway. Isn't some Calerpa called grape something or the other?

Craig. Just to be a tool, since I am in that kinda mood, "grammar" not Grammer. Or was that intenshunall? I have a friend who does shirts and does top quality work at a good price. He is in Afganimastan until mid Aug. and will likely be printing shirts the day he gets back. He is quite the miser/capitalist.
Let me know when you need a bid. Will the artwork be in Vector or AI?

AI is vector.

Just a new concept

Hey guys had some time this am and tried to work on my design.
I incorporated more coral and less leaves. Same basic design but less complicated. Let me know what you think.

p.s. Dan I left this one in layers I bet you only make that mistake once

Nice Craig. Can I suggest moving the coral enough right that one can see the label on the bottle? Maybe frag off the branch at 10:00 if that helps? I think the idea that the label has a map of the county on it is pretty neat. Or maybe move the bottle more centered and the coral more left?

Dan, couldn't see yours, so I went to Photobucket and checked it out. Very creative. My personal opinion is that visually there is too much emphasis on grapes / wine versus reef.

Thanks Ken,

All suggestions welcome

Here is a version where I moved the coral.

I still need to work on the label a bit.

 

[justin_freebord]

would this be on a banner or a t shirt? or just online. I feel like it wouldnt look that good on a banner because theres so much going on. In general it looks really cool though

 

[kokaneejr]

Hey Ken here is a cleaned up version. Moved the coral and added a branch. Cleaned up the label and deleted the photo from my last post

p.s. per my wife I opened the wine bottle.( oops )
