Hi - I'm working on this illustration for a possible tshirt design. I feel like it needs another element of some sort. Thoughts? It also might need some more linework for the fur...I was trying to keep it relatively simple, but then I filled the antlers.
Anyway - any comments/suggestions? Thanks!

I'm not sure what could be done outside of the animals. I feel like swirls or extensive line work would make it too similar to mainstream fashion designs and I like the simplicity.
One thing you might think about is the deer's eye. I think adding another circle or a bit more detail might liven it up and give it more character. At the moment the deer almost seems dead in the eye to me.
Wonderful piece, I've always liked blues and greens and bluegreens

you may thing of making that fur...and maybe make it disappeare in the white bg...just maybe.
and you may wanna put some more color around the right horn, so that it doesn't "touches" the bg...visually that is quite annoying
nice work - i like it!!! hope i don't seem to b ann.....

thanks!
good call on the right horn touching. As for the eyes being a little dull, that's okay...I was intending for it to feel a little "off". I also like the faint fur.
chung dha - it's a little stylized, but is there anything that really sticks out as being "goatish"? The nose maybe?

I'm not sure about the colour.. although it would really depend on the colour of the shirt you're printing on
The bird's wings seem too small or its tails looks too big and the deer does look like some kind of goat..
I just checked your portfolio and really like your works =)
I'm eager to see how this one turns out when it's done..

update: I reworked the nose area and added some more linework/texture. I also redid the background (in case you didn't notice - haha) I felt like it needed to be more organic. I also think the lighter line was kinda making a lot of things look...um, weird? Kinda like when you look at a negative...things just don't seem right. Better or worse?

The update nose is much better now look more like a reindeer. Only thing the version the lines under the eye of the reindeer make it looks tired. Actually might be better to make the iris of the eye dark, instead of the tiny pupil.

chung dha - awesome! As for the tired-looking lines, they are intentional. I'm going for tired/vacant expression.
georgian - I was actually thinking silver (light gray) for the shirt. I'm trying to keep things light/colorful to balance the expression of the animals.
as for your avatar - is your avatar a light gray box? If so - it's working PERFECTLY! haha
