I was thinking about calling this "Never tell me the odds!"

I don't know. Star Wars mash-ups have been a little overused.

The last three jobs I've applied for want me to use it.

I only used it for like two years in college and haven't had much of a need for it. Is it something I should be brushing up on?
Apparently Bansky directed this:



I thought it was pretty clever.
It's never been on when I've been watching tv.

Pretty funny stuff. The dog has the same voice as Bender. I haven't IMDB'd it yet, but I'm pretty sure I'm right.
I bid on a job a few weeks ago, but didn't get the job.
Here's the logo I designed for the client.


The other night, I drive by to see this:


What the frak? I even sent the thing in a low res jpeg to try and stop this from happening.
I was thinking I could make the lines spell out "TRON" as well, or maybe incorporate the disc look from the costumes in the maze.

I normally draw everything in vector, but I could export to photoshop if I needed, I guess.

What's the best way to add a stressed look, keeping the design easily printable? Is there a good way to do it in vector? Maybe using a stress layer that's basically going to be the color of the shirt?

If you export a vector design from illustrator to photoshop, can you keep the color layers, and add a stress looking layer on the top, or do you need to flatten the image and then just let the printer do the color separations?


I was going for an octopus tree thing, with the flowers being it's suction cups. This is just a sketch and I was going to redraw it with actual detail on the flowers and whatnot.

I was thinking I could fill the entire shirt with the print, maybe contour lines at the bottom like waves.

Together we live in Lincoln, Nebraska keeping ourselves busy at the Frisbee golf park, going for long bike rides or wasting large amounts of time on Xbox live. (many people of the world probably think RobotWaste is a 11 year old girl thanks to Xbox Live)



My hobbies include refinishing furniture, fixing up the house, and occasionally getting the sketchpad out.
