Hi Carol my proposed draft for the contest #38 - the nuts so hard to crack it need atlas to do the job

Thanks

Riza while I appreciate the idea it isn't what they want... the focus should be on a team that can find the right solution to crack the nut... the "nut" in this case is terrible diseases like cancers and more that need to be solved. So I doubt this will be good.

Also they want it to be fun and thought provoking...
Can you maybe try one of the other ideas I suggested?

We don't have any 'trust the expert' messages... this is more the team will work on it until they find the solution. trial and error - thoughtful scientific experimentation until it is cracked.

leaving one in just to encourage you to try a different direction.. your font style is good and your illustration style is good just didn't hit the concept the way they want.

Hi Carol would it made any difference if I color up the design, or do you think my scientist squirell concept is not quite right ?

Thanks

lets see what they say... I think it is clever but hard to read what they will think... you have some who say stay kinda on the serious side and others who want as crazy funny as we can get...

I will let you know the next time we review with them

Oh and you might have seen they changed difficult to tough ... but don't bother yet with that part.

I see... ok I will wait for the meeting result..

btw if you notice there is another designer using the animal scientist / lab coat idea like mine :/ .. you don't mention this on the brief so I believe it is same as dynamite stuff that could be protected too..

I know ... but not the animal with the lab coat thing... well it may debatable on the forum..but still I think you can agree stuff can get frustating for designer quickly right here.. especially when we try to be different from the rest or put some thought to the design only to get copied... hmm I blabbing stuff now lol.. back to the contest I guess.

#61 stylize it and add color ... there is a lot of detail ... they are not sure about the complexity but want to see it in color so they can actually see it better.

#92 - number of colors could still reduced if required, like the grass it only serve as indicator that this is off site gathering and could be removed if not very important

Thanks

they said it was still to complex... maybe take out all but one guy scratching his head and the nut under the laser take out all the rest but the text from #102
