Black Delta
I’d like to do a whole series of different common UFO shapes. Other than the standard flying saucer, the big black triangles were the next form that came to mind.
I doubt that is an actual UFO, but it seems pretty close to what people describe seeing. These large black triangles fly silently overhead, often at night, even in populated areas. According to this space.com article, they’ve figured it out, and they are actually secret government blimps that use silent electric motors. Ok. I guess that’s just as possible as anything else, but since there’s just as much disinformation as there is real information about UFOs, I’ll keep my perch right here on the fence.
The design for this shirt is pretty easy. I set up the triangle flat first, then used the 3d transform tool in Illustrator to give it perspective. I started with the design for light colored shirts first, with the lights and the surrounding triangle outline. I thought I could just delete the triangle background for the dark shirts, but I should know by now its never that easy. I had to recreate the whole thing from scratch and transform it again.
The design for light colored shirts.
The design for darker colored shirts.
I like the darker design much better, but I wasn’t sure if it actually read “triangle ufo” or not. Perhaps the light colored design is overkill, I don’t know.
