Getting to it...
The shirt is entitled "Mislead the Loyal" t-shirt.
In this t shirt we have the image of a squid creature similar to the character from Pirates Of the Caribbean: At Worlds End. The squid character is wearing a pope wardrobe as he hovers over a group of lost individuals (backs facing the viewer). All this is taking place in the woods while space shifts hover around. The bands signature type face is placed over the image while the title of the t-shirt is placed under the image.
What is working in this Design...
Considering the bands lyrics, that question the idea of a God and embrace the idea of extraterrestrials, I do like the concept behind the design. The actual illustration is symmetrical and well balanced. I also appreciate the negative space that help form the silhouette of trees in the distance, that helps eliminate the feeling of cluttered square.
What is NOT working in this Design...
The concept is there but execution didn't sit well with me as I felt like the use of the squid character made no sense. The header type face should have been bigger than the title of the shirt in the lower part. That alone did not give the design a proper well balance feeling vertical, just made it too bottom heavy. The use of yellow on the design would have made the design a bit more vibrant and appealing to the eye. Yellows were only use on the type faces.
Overall this design has potential but it lacked on several aspects.
