Freelance: Kyedae t-shirt graphic design

I had been approached via email by a merchandise company based in Los Angeles.
The brief was to create a series of anime inspired, one colour illustration prints to be printed on various products as merchandise for popular streamer, Kyedae.
The deadline was tighter than what I'm used to, only being a few days, due to this I was mostly given complete creative freedom so long as it was similar to the initial reference images seen above. The project eventually ended up changing course before I could finish the designs.
after some back and forth the above sketches were the ones that the client and myself decided we liked most. Going for a more edgy streetwear vibe.
The bunny girl design offered me a chance to do a type of design I had wanted to try for a while. This design offers a mix between a more modern type of print for the back of the garment more commonly seen in streetwear trends today with a more early 2000's, Y2K style font and design for the front logo. Of all the designs this is the one I am most happy with and the only one seen to completion as well as a full mock up before the project eventually fell through.
The last two designs were not completed before the deadline changed course, my original plan was to add more logos and smaller designs to accompany the main illustrations to give off a more modern edgy kind of look.
