thanks! I was thinking the wrists should fade out rather than stopping so abruptly. Any suggestions?

Use some grunge brushes to fade it, you can do it in vector or just transport it to PS

Like the idea. FAde would be a problem on the hands for the need for solid colors. What if you took the color out of the hands and kept them as line art… maybe darker tee. Can’t put finger on what isn’t working (for me), but idea is right direction.

Hey guys, the suggestions have been great! A faded effect would definitely be beneficial, I’m glad we all agree. So, my question for all of you is:
Do I need to re-submit this with the fade effect? Or do you all trust me not to mess it up? I.e. so if it gets printed and I send in the files with the fade in place, you’ll still buy it even though you didn’t see the fade ahead of time.
and Thank’s so much!

It would look neat, but remember the design guidelines.... you can’t gradient/fade/halftone…

About My Design:
Rather than handcuffs, the hands are shackled by the plastic tops to six-packs of soda or beer.
These sinister devices kill thousands of birds and sea creatures each year.The piece also symbolizes our dependency on plastics as well as our inability to manage the amount of trash we create.
