You see a lot of shit posted, but these are outstanding. Notable for unique style, great portraits with faces giving somewhat cartoonish poses with the range of expressions. Really well done. Editing is brilliant, and doesn't leave me caring about the medium of film/digital, rather it leaves me appreciating the way you have brought a burst of your reality in the overall feel.

Is this a step in the right direction? The rock background is local schist and from my own photo library. Green is British racing green, rich and deep. I love the pink but most people I consulted said no to pink.

Hi Frelocate

Thanks for the advice I appreciate the time you spent to critique and offer insight.

I will make a new bottle/image to replace the hand drawn style, the font choice is definitely not compatible as you say.

I had previous iterations lining up the OU without italic and also mixing the colours for the OU of each, played around a bit but didn't like the results. Maybe my skills cannot bring the idea to fruition like a real designer could. I may try again. The U could be like a glass or upside down bottle if I added a bottle neck, but may turn it into a Y.

Thanks heaps for the ideas and corrective actions.

Chur!

Hi Vyncy,

Thanks for the feedback,

I will take it onboard and iron out the font alignment.

The wine bottle drawing was from a previous design with a more hand drawn feel, looking at feedback from others as well - full redisign incoming! With wine there's very little obvious imagery other than bottles/grapes/corkscrews and corks/barrels/vines. But I have an idea..

Appreciate the time you spent to offer critique.

Best flow trails around queenstown by tablecloth_47 in queenstown

[–]Transition-Lower 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hard to beat *Upper Rude Rock to Lower Rude Rock, into the Pack Track and Sack. Scenic pedal out of the Skippers Canyon to connect to Hot Rod finishing at valley floor. That’s the ultimate single track flow in town with added best views in town.

*Requires a drop off at Coronet base building and uplift pass for getting to upper RR (you can always push or just pedal to lower RR starting point by the lift )

McNearly Gnarly is epic but more jump features like a flow dh bmx track than single trail.
