Shirt.Woot : One Shirt, No Shoes, No Service (SM)

Even though it'll be arriving late, I sent this to my friend for her Halloween package.

Hey, everyone, guess what I'm wearing on Wednesday?

Heheh. Give my love to Wiley. Did you buy him one?

heartluce wrote:Heheh. Give my love to Wiley. Did you buy him one?

No, I thought about it, but I didn't. He has a pumpkin shirt (but no cat) and a skeleton shirt.

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In for 2!!!

And that thing-that-should-have-been-rejected taking fourth means it will NEVER be printed here!

...unless woot bends the rules _again_...

Draxx, I love your work...There's about 5 others that I want, that just haven't been printed...

b1w2k3s4 wrote:This shirt just doesn't do it for me. For a Halloween Derby, I felt in general that the shirts were very boring. This shirt is just a skeleton sitting on a pumpkin. Nothing original. It's a fine shirt for what it is, but I feel like shirt.woot should be a place for more creative ideas. Of the top three, I definitely felt like the Zombie Candy Corns was the best.

To each their own, but I think Zombie Candy Corn was no more original than this. Seriously, any zombie shirt (regardless of quality) will be hard pressed to score any originality points. And Zombie Candy Corn wasn't as well drawn as this design either.

Regardless, originality isn't the strong suit of Drakxxx's designs. However, he is a splendid artist, and his designs are always atmospheric as hell. This one is no exception, and I'm thrilled that it printed.

Watch it win the Double-Take, or worse! An EC!

Or the woot item, or wine.woot for that matter... brooms, cats, carving knives... and if you wanted to really go there, kids.woot has a bag of 'goodies'.

You must have the biggest closet/dresser in the world LOL..either that or a whole room devoted to tees. How many do you have?

It's "deep-seated", isn't it?

Argh, that came off pedantic, didn't it? XP

They'll give the tiger an HM. It'll lead the next double take derby right to the end... when it'll finally get rejected. Then everyone will laugh heartily, and the audience will applaud at the splendid show.

Then, like the psychiatrist at the end of psycho, a guy in a lab coat will explain that the entire thing was a ruse to both annoy seki and guarantee Drakxxx a Halloween print (as he had been waning in support). And, like the ending of Psycho, we'll forget this hopelessly boring explanatory scene exists and remember only all the fun we had.

Way too many. I tried to count them once under "my account." That was several months ago, and it was over 70 (and was having issues because of randoms, trades, etc.). I hang a lot in the closet, and the shelf in the closet is stacked up. And there's also my TeeFury shirts added in there. Maybe tomorrow, if I'm bored, I'll try to recount.

Guys, thanks so much again for the tremendous amount of support I got on this and all my designs for the contest. I've said it before, and I'll continue to say it, you guys are the best!

I know the Halloween contest had several fiascos, but when all is said and done, let's all try to be friends.



Thanks again everyone, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Ditto, invisible... His art style is totally my thing. I love the whole Jhonen Vasquez, Tim Burton feel -- I could just wear all his shirts on rotation. :P Hope to see more printed later.

Great job D!! I'm SO happy to see this won/got printed. I anxiously logged on each morning this weekend, getting out of bed, to check if this made the day's cut, worrying if I waited too long it might be sold out. Saw Friday's candy corn sold out, yesterday's didn't last I checked... I wonder if this will? I could see it happening.

Snarky, I am getting to that point myself w/the T's. We have SOOOOOO many T's in our closet now, thanks to woot. I'd say 75% of them are Woot tees. Thank goodness our new house will have a bigger closet! I need to update my purchase list in my signature!

Congrats again dude. You deserve it.

wow, even your cats are spooky! that's a kitty that would kick your butt in a dark alley late at night, with his creepy master. they say that they are trick or treating but they are up to unspeakable things...
(what things?)
things are are cut up into little small pieces that are hidden in the pumpkin.

Amen.

those were my thoughts exactly. :P

Wow, squeaked by with a mere 10 votes. Our fate was just that close to a thread full of impetuous rage.

DCno10 wrote:never been so happy to see a 3rd place shirt.

Grats Drak!

Oh thank goodness.

It wouldn't have been a Halloween derby without a Drakxxx print.

Congrats, man...well deserved!

That was nice. Drakxxx, you are a class act. And not just in your drawing. Congratulations on your win.

Great Shirt!!!

strawhat311 wrote:Anyone notice the print turned out to look slightly different than the derby entry? The pumpkins eyes and mouth are not as yellow, and also the knife doesn't have that yellow outline either.

I didn't notice it until you pointed it out, but it is slightly different. The outline around the kid is darker and the pumpkin he's sitting on seems less sinister.

Regardless, I bought one! Unfortunately because I live in Canada I might get this in time for Christmas. Even though I can see America from my front yard. (did that sound a little Sarah Palinesque??)

Is this bones on candy?

Best B O C if ever I saw one, if that's the case.

I adjusted some little things here and there on the print ready with the resubmission.

I'd like to see how other artists interpret the cat in pumpkin.

Also, thanks woot for getting me to listen to Iggy Pop for the first time in years. That write up is awesome.

...and the peasants rejoiced !!!.....


truly a great comeback Drakxxx!

in for mine, oh yeah!

If I had to fight off a malfunctioning rejectionator and crazed kitteh lovers, I'd be a psychotic skeleton too.

Hope 'She Never Sleeps' appears sometime next week!

And this makes me so thrilled! I said in the submission thread (but it was deleted) that I voted for this design with all 10 of my voting accounts.

So to have it win by exactly 10 votes? Well, I'll probably be crapping rainbows all day long

Did he learn how to make a bat balloon from Shrek?

This is classy. I was rather tired of reading snarky comments about who didn't win. Almost stopped reading, but this made it worth staying.

So do I!

First derby in a long time that printed two shirts I desperately wanted. Congrats Drakxxx, and a belated congrats to Boots.

Oh! How nice! These purchases gave me my black box back!
