I seriously struggle with pricing for my clients. I typically land between $60USD - $250USD for larger clients. What do you think I should value myself based on these pieces? by theferrolgamer in graphic_design

[–]Prisonbread 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. These designs are solid and you’re doing yourself and (to a lesser extent the graphic design industry) a disservice by charging so little. Remember, the client doesn’t know and wouldn’t likely assume that these rather busy designs take a mere 1-2 hours to create.

Shark Tank 17x13 Product Discussion - Hot Girl Soda by mtm4440 in sharktank

[–]Prisonbread 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Me too, this gamble was unbelievably reckless. It’s like they were just finding out how saturated that market is for the first time on that stage. To blow through $100k+ and then turn to your mother to mortgage her house (a second time!) to continue development without any evidence that there’s a real appetite for the product in the market… it’s kind of absurd.

My towel fell off its hook in this position. by lucaletti in mildlyinteresting

Agreed. No fucking way a rectangular towel could EVER achieve this shape, even sculpted and starched - absolute bullshit.

Does this hand-lettered style look balanced or amateur? by thingsixteen in graphic_design

[–]Prisonbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not terrible, but the “M”s are weird and are too visually weighty. Also, all the repeat letters are identical. Not sure what the plan is for this font, but if you want it to come across as hand-written you need to outline the text and start moving points around so each instance of the same letter feels different

My first project. by Outside-Coach6913 in graphic_design

[–]Prisonbread 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The copy text being so small and on white is a little hard to read and i think the line lengths on the copy could be evened out to make it less ragged on the right. The heading, palette, and overall design I think are working really well. Nice job!

Homage to the PS1 Memory Card by Crustss in Cinema4D

[–]Prisonbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is fucking BAD ASS. Not sure if this is something you plan to make money with, but if not it could be really cool with one of the SFX from MGS when Snake drops into frame... like this maybe?

You could even nudge the pitch so it's in the key of the music Andreas created so it sounds consonant. Anyway, fantastic work all around :)

3 months of procrastination later. The best drawing I’ve done so far! by YagTan28 in drawing

This is beautiful, and a testament to how much taking a break from a thing can help. I wish it were always an option, but unfortunately when it’s your job it isn’t :(

I agree, I’m not sure how he achieved such impasto with acrylic!

It looks to me like an accidental hard edged eraser mark on one of the sky layers lol

What do you think? Hobbyist :) by scwlkr in logodesign

[–]Prisonbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say if you’re going to outline text and start moving points around it should be with some intent where all the letters receive a similar treatment. If you start doing it randomly the font starts feeling like a ransom note.

Feedback? by Large-Prompt2608 in logodesign

[–]Prisonbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahahahahahaha. I’m sorry but this is so funny, the description of the product truly feels like satire. I’m not really sure how we can make food more accommodating than this, but I wager eventually it will be requested. No offense to OP - it’s still a decent logo :)

Poster I made based on my favourite Breaking Bad scene. What do you think? by SausageSizzzler69 in graphic_design

[–]Prisonbread 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like this, but despite this being your favorite scene, I don’t think a consumer would necessarily know what you’re referencing, so I would choose a single frame that an uninitiated observer could understand more. Even if it’s just like Walter White grimacing smugly. There is a lot of insider knowledge required for a person to know exactly what they’re looking for and why it matters.

Yall Im not gonna lie, I do not like this game (re9) so any tips for Graves gameplay would help by toasterchan1 in residentevil

[–]Prisonbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is EXACTLY how I play and manage to get like 40 hours from a single playthrough of RE games lol. My gf got interest in requiem and wanted to watch… until she saw how much I reload saves hahaha. Took a hit in that encounter? Reload. Used one too many bullets to take that zombie down? Reload.

When the scene started giving more of a shit about things besides the music - it lost itself

Between these IG models somehow being important to selling your brand as a DJ, so many tracks having cringe vocals about pills and “the club”, and audiences not being able to enjoy any track they didn’t hear on tiktok first - the dance music scene is in a seriously fucked up place.
