    Lucky Sevens T-Shirt Design

    My boss turned 40 on 07/07/07 and was going to Vegas to celebrate. His wife asked that I design a party T-Shirt, so here it is. Any feedback is welcome! Thanks ~BoS

    too many dice - makes it look like you're playing extreme yahtzee...

    I'm thinking it would look great if you removed the dice altogether.

    Huh, no dice? Never thought of that. I was thinking (I dont really know) that seven was a good number in the game Craps, so that is where I came up with the dice deal, plus it was another way to add in seven to the theme. Interesting!

    thanks for the feedback!

    I like the dice personally. I'm not so sure about the girl with a gun - I'm guessing you're going for a James Bond thing, but I'm not sure it works.

    It'd be nice if you could put the Lucky Sevens/dice logo on the front, and then the cards and remaining text on the back.

    perhaps removing ALL the dice would be a little hasty, but there is a lot going on, and I do think it's pretty well designed, however the 13 dice seems a bit much and reads more like 2/5/2/5 rather than seven because each die is isolated and evenly spaced.

    three sets of overlapping dice 2/5; 6/1; 2/5; might be better suited to sell the 07/07/07, AND show off your ability to add dice...

    I think I like the dice too.

    The girl was a last minute addition, to try and tie the whole thing together, which is why she overlaps and is overlapped by the text on top and bottom. Maybe she needed a bigger gun or something...

    The cards could have tied it all together if they were moved to the back and made larger, and more transparent maybe...

    Good ideas, thanks

    Damn, and I have been looking for a reason to show off my Dice Addition Prowess!
    The 13 was intentional though, as I wanted to add a little ironic bad luck into the design, on the sly kinda... you caught me! Funny!

    Thanks ~BoS

    It's way, WAY too busy. If it was me, I'd take out everything except the cards and the type and center it all. Maybe change up the font after Tour and use the dice as the separators for the date.

    I know it's Vegas and it's all about excess, but less would definitely be more here.

    Thanks for the feedback. The dice would have worked very well with the date, I didnt even think of that.

    good points on every count.
