They finally came in and they look hot. I'm pretty stoked about them but I think the reaction of the girls who have seen just the blanks makes me look forward to putting my designs on them. They are very, very light and unnaturally soft. Definitely not something I would wear but 100% of the women who've seen it love the cut and style.
Of course, I have to make a logo shirt and I think the other variation of this is going to have the logo type and the bubble tea switch spots between the variations. I really like the positioning of the bubble tea in the corner, almost as if it's just sitting there.
My previous prototype of .m. had her entire head in the safety area of the shirt. That was a little too contained and boring so I made her face take up the entire front with her head cutting through the V. It's in your face and bold, which is how I think .m. comes across. I'm starting to sound like J. Peterman.

JADE and akane are going to be the other two designs but with variations as well. The softness and translucency of the shirts lends itself to a softer image. I lightened .m. a lot and even moreso for JADE and akane. As seen below, I have a solid version of each girl which stands as more of a traditional shirt print as well as a
ghost version. The ghost version is lighter and more subdued. These came as both suggestions by friends/fans and a by-product of getting the image onto the shirt. Fortunately, I'll be able to offer the bold and ghost versions.


Here's how it fits. Very feminine.

Finally, they all have the muz tag on them. Makes it feel legit and gives me a huge smile on my face when I look at it. I can't wait to take a photo of the lot I'll be taking with me to Asia. It's going to be
a lot of work to get even 50 of these done but right now, I'm riding the high of imagining the possibilities.
Exciting times...
