Design notes from the Three-Brains designer on Game Player – Red Controller – Classic Men’s T-shirt

• Our love of all things competitive and in particular video gaming inspired this design.  This design was intended for fans of X-box gaming
•  The controller we positioned so that it sits over the heart when you look front on at someone wearing the design. And it does have a (kind of) heart shaped look to it when you see the controller from that angle.
• To get the design, we start by taking a photo of our X-box controller and then tracing the main lines with the pen tool in Adobe Illustrator.
• There was a lot of manual adjusting with the direct selection tool to get this design looking right – we didn’t want an exact X-box controller replica and made some adjustments to give it a more artistic effect.
• The main colour is a rich Red (#e52541), close to a colour called Alizarin Crimson.
• We added some shading levels to make the controller look more 3D – on the sides and around the main circle areas. It’s a medium dark red (#a81918) 
• The text has two fonts, the GAME is written in Top Secret Bold font and the PLAYER in Impact. We used the same White / Red contrast colours as used in the controller.
• We added a WAVE effect when we grouped the two words together, with -12% horizontal bend, and a 10% vertical distortion to give it a slightly 3D rolling into the distance effect.
