Premiership Cartoon for Tumby Bay Football Club (Blues) T-Shirts. Please only make contact if you have the skills to follow the brief in the style that we request.

Objective: Create an iconic cartoon to celebrate Tumby Bay Football Club's three consecutive premiership victories (2022-2024) against the Eagles (twice 2022 and 2024) and the Magpies (once 2023). The cartoon will be printed on T-shirts.

Art Style: (see attached images as reference)
• Inspired by the cartoon style found in Herald Sun's football posters.
• Vibrant and exaggerated expressions and postures to convey the dramatic victory.
• Reference AI-generated images provided for style guidance, but ensure distinct character details and Key Elements.

Key Elements:

1. Mascot ("Blues Man"):
o Appearance: Navy blue team jersey with white shorts and light blue trim. Dark hair, short back and sides. (No helmet required)
o Logo: 'TB' logo on the chest.
o Expression: Cheeky grin, looking triumphant and slightly mischievous.
o Action: Standing over the injured eagle and magpie, symbolising dominance.

2. Opponents: Eagle (Primary Opponent) and Magpie (Secondary Opponent)

o Eagle Appearance: Smaller in size compared to the Blues Man. Eagle to be badly injured, lying on the ground with ruffled feathers and visible injuries – perhaps the Blue man to be standing on top off the eagle with a boot on his head.
o Magpie Appearance: Smaller in size compared to the Eagle. Badly injured, lying in or next to the 2023 Premiership cup
o Eagle Colours: Royal blue and yellow.
o Magpie Colours: Black and white.

3. Premiership Cups (Three):

o Each cup represents a win from 2022, 2023, and 2024, styled similar to the Herald Sun posters. 2024 Cup to be prominent and held in the hand of the Blue Man. Other two cups to be less prominent
o 2024 Cup: Featuring the 'Blues snakes and ladder' logo.
o 2023 Cup: Featuring the 'Tour de Blues' logo.
o 2022 Cup: Featuring 'Hold the rope' with a rope knot. (logo was not designed)

4. Premiers Banner:

o Text: "Premiers 3-Peat"
o Colors: Navy Blue and White.
5. Background:
o Simple green grass field, focusing the attention on the characters and cups.

Additional Notes:
• The cartoon should clearly distinguish the brutality of the sport while keeping a humorous and light-hearted tone.
• Ensure all elements are visible and distinct for print clarity on various T-shirt sizes.

Deliverables:
• Final design in high-resolution JPEG and vector format for printing.
• Initial sketches for review before finalising the design.
