Poster I made for my girlfriend- RumpRoast- The SuperCorgi

[bigdaveyj]

My girlfriend is a hardcore corgi lover, so I thought I would just make her a little something as a gift because, well, I can. This is what I have so far:

I just want to know what this community thinks about my design. Other communities like reddit and deviantart don't do anything when it comes to critique so I thought maybe I would try my chances here with this community for a few of my designs. Here's the first.Critique is greatly appreciated

The actual size of this is 11"x17", I am posted a smaller version.

Welcome to the forum, bigdaveyj.

I like the concept but - the background. Dark that it swallows the RumpRoast... lol...

Try a different background / color... a lighter background to bring out the text and shadow. As well as brighten up the RumpRoast text.

Give it a shot.... and let's see what you improvements you can come up with.

If you have TOPAZ, you can use it on the dog.

Cheers.

Ha ha this joke made me laugh. Really funny! I agree the text rump roast doesn't stand out well. Maybe outline it with the solid color used at the top or white?

Now don't tell us that's the dog's name?

 

[bigdaveyj]

Yeah they're all the same color, the rumproast is blended with soft light. I'm probably going to change it a bit though for that reason.

andto dv8_fx: this is a popular picture online, rumproast is just a corgi name I know she adores.

It's cute name...

I agree about the text not standing out enough, but this image is hilarious and awesome. I'm a Corgi lover as well, but I don't have one of my own unfortunately. I'm sure your girlfriend will love it!
