[QUOTE=NassimO PotatO;45898005]Like any promotional hat...[/QUOTE]
I believe Neo is comparing it to the Skullgirls promo hats that never came to be.
By plastering the "Digital Unlock" onto the T-shirt workshop page itself, it's promising something that isn't for certain yet. The graphics that associate shirt and item do look formal and all but I still have yet to see anything that affirms their connection, as WLF seems to be in charge of approving the shirt designs; I have not personally been seeing Valve cross-approving of them.
To me it feels more like WLF jumping the gun a bit, the time between the workshop going up and the shirts going into production was really fast. Fast enough that anything tied to in-game content, be it Valve-sanctioned or not, would not have any time to keep up with the in-game content approval process. Yeah I know goldstarring stuff is supposed to make it faster but there's still cases where they need something changed or corrected.

Companies aren't allowed to make things and put them up for sale without approval. All of these shirts require being approved by Valve before they can be sold.
My second (first one is [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=307135067[/url]) try at silhouettes. It's again as simple as possible and keep in mind that heavily WIP, I just want to know your opinions/where to place Spy/... Thanks in advance.

Looks like the spy is sneaking up on a very surprised bird.
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;45899021]It honestly looks like you used one of the sniper images on the main menu. At least recreate a pose and edit it a bit in SFM or GMod.[/QUOTE]
Well, it's the most recognizable Sniper pose
I thought I'd try and get us mappers some lovin'

It's a pretty stupid idea, but I learned something :eng101:
[QUOTE=NeoDement;45897736]I'm glad they didn't accept any promo items so far. It would set a bad precedent, and people could easily abuse it to get a bunch of potentially sub-par items ingame. Seeing how easy it seems to be to get new T-shirt designs accepted to the store, anyway.[/QUOTE]
I don't see the problem; the buyer is happy cause he have a cool rare item ingame and it boosts the sales. (plus the hat that evil, psyke an me made for the telemax shirt is more art fitting than most of the promos items...)

It's actually an occluder in the middle. Geesh.

On my list...
I think the next one will be a missing texture shirt and a NODRAW shirt.
They're silly and won't get anywhere. But someone at least did them.
Here's a sketch I started for a shirt. Anybody have any crits before I start the final drawing?

I think the solider should be holding the bucket defensively, like he does in the short.

First batch of submissions approved.
Congrats to whoever made it! :D

I thought about doing that one, but I wanted to do the "Dear God" scene more.

Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?[/QUOTE]
perhaps fill in the lettering with white, i realize its GRAY gravel co. but the words could probably stand out a bit more from the design.
i'm pretty sure gray would put his company name as the most prominent feature of his logo.
aka, bigger letters.

Some wear and fading and stuff would be nice. Like signs are in game.
So will you actually be able to buy this merchandise? I'd really like that soldier stash hat
some of it is already on sale on the welovefine site.
the rest, we're just waiting in the workshop.
Updating FreightWell atm:

I also updated Upgrades Vending Co., which is pretty much done now, I'll re-upload them both in a row

I think from Point A to B sounds better and makes more sense, since many maps use alphabetical points.
It seems that it's easier and quicker to get a shirt on the store than it is to get an item in game. :v:
Which is a good thing, of course. I guess I should be creative and try to come up with something...
[QUOTE=Serious_Greg;45901228]started making this design for shirt:

Any ideas for improvements? First of all, i want to do something with this text and font.[/QUOTE]
Use the [URL="http://www.fontriver.com/font/tf2/"]TF2 font[/URL], and make it italic.
