Brewing company label

Here's our first attempt at a label for "Man Skirt Brewing Co." Any feedback is welcome.



We're going to be doing a few different designs, but this is the first in the series.

Thanks!

Looks pretty good to me!

I like it, but you know It could be pretty cool with some color it might make things pop.

I'd make the inside of the ring a tartan.

Here's a little color:

Thanks. That's really well done, and I appreciate the effort. However I wasn't looking for someone to do the label for us, just some input on the work we'd already done.

Sorry to have changed it then, I was just trying to help. I love the concept that you had, and that's why I put the time in. I also wasn't trying to do it for you, just point you in a direction.

I am a multimedia designer, and sometimes its hard to tell someone (in a forum) what critique comments you have and explain them properly. It was just easier to show you my thoughts.

Keep going on the path you are on with the design, it will turn out well.

sorry again-

-DIG

It's ok; I'm not insulted or anything. I do genuinely appreciate the work. And it is awfully nice

Just an opinion here. I really like the concept, but the background does not fit the foreground. I really like the foreground. “Cartoonize” the background to match the foreground maybe?

The one by digunderground illustrates some things I noticed. My first thought was to turn the oval so the label was taller instead of wide since theres a lot of unused space on the sides. This would also give you the chance to lengthen the skirt a bit and make it more the focus (to match the name). Also the "flash" beneath the boot really brings out the crushing of the letter...maybe more rubble coming off would do the same thing. Addition of color definitely a good idea since it helps seperate the individual componants.

I just realized this is a REALLY old thread! I hope your label turned out well!

hehe I was surprised to see it pop back up too

We've been keeping it simple with the labels, and they've been very well received. Here's our holiday label.

Wow, it is an old thread. Guess I need to cut back on the beer drinking... No, what am I saying...

I like the label.
