This must have been @Elle’s face when LDRVillage said big things were coming and we thought it was related to the new album

Wow it's crazy a few years ago I would have kms over this  This is an incredible opportunity, thank you Elle! If anyone needs typographic help, I'd be happy to help!

[Crazy Husband Thief 3,913]

It’s very unfortunate that they have to be fully illustrated and that we can't use actual Lana photography.

I honestly think they're too weird to get anywhere near a t-shirt 

The Village people (pun intended) would be WTF 

I do have some other ideas but no time to make them

Maybe I'll enter the next round, tho

[Beautiful Loser 50,600]

So I might be passionate about graphic design but I don't know shite about it - they only specify that the submissions should be in HQ (300 pixels/inch), but what is considered LQ? 72 pixels/inch? Because my illustration is 72 pixels, but it's huge so it might as well be HQ, y'know?

Um I’m not a graphic designer but I believe you can set the DPI in Photoshop and it’ll resize your art based on the DPI you chose? Sry if that’s bad advice lmfao 

[Beautiful Loser 50,600]

Well F, my laptop's memory is too full to create a 300 dpi file. I'll have to find a way to solve that tomorrow.

Anyway, here's a preview of my design!! Sorry for the low quality picture and uglee watermark, I'm just scared of what people can do with other's art online lol. I also blurred my signature. The gray background is just there so you can see everything, it won't be there in the submission (meaning that the little holes and everything will be see-through/showing the color of the fabric instead).

So! My idea for this was to use the iconic photo of Lana with her cigarette as inspiration for Ultraviolence! I wanted the cig smoke to create this oval shape to frame her but I don't think anyone can tell that it's supposed to be smoke anymore, haha. I'm also scared that the Village will think I've used the original UV logotype, which might be copyrighted?, so I drew it instead.   I'm picturing this could work as a print for t-shirts, sweaters and such!

Spoiler

Oops, I just noticed a mistake - good thing I haven't submitted my entry yet!

I really want to draw something for Honeymoon as well, and Norman but I have no ideas for Norman... which makes me sad, because I love that album so much. (    ;  - ;  )

A vector graphic can be scaled to any resolution and uses less memory, so I think you should use this.

@Clampigirl I LOVE YOUR DESIGN OMG  it’s perfect….I really hope this one ends up being the one. LDR Village and us fans would miss out greatly if they didn’t choose yours <3
