Broke-coli Apron

Description: Apron featuring a pun. The main piece of this design is what seems like a broccoli, or at least that was the intended result when depicting it and what the reference picture claimed to be. It has an unhappy expression and its tiny hands are pulling its empty pockets out, in the well-known gesture that implies that one does not have any money, while below it there's a hint of text that reads "BROKE-COLI".

This design was one of the last of the first batch before the use of vectors, and while it has some advantages, like the fact that the lines have a more authentic feeling, its disadvantage is that you have to use the selection tool, and it sometimes selects parts of the image that you don't need, which means that you have to redo the same step a number of times, changing settings, before reaching a satisfactory result. With the selected parts turned into layers, getting the outline is pretty straightforward.

There's a very mild gradient below the broccoli top. The rest of the broccoli, which includes expression, arms and pockets was made with the use of shapes, masking the lines that weren't needed; and the text has a gradient too. This design was submitted as an entry for the Threadless Retail Trends Design Challenge. Not a "best BBQ dad" apron, but a funny one for cooking nonetheless.
