Re: Charlotte's Web/The Lord of the Flies

Oh, you moved the spear, good one! The pig is pure awesome!!!!!
Me no likey spideys but on that Pigs head, I will take one, in fact, I would run like that with a spider perched on my head...
Really that pig you have outdone yourself, I want one!

Re: The LIttle Mermaid/Moby Dick

Jasneko, you captured the magic with this one, the little mermaid is perfect, she reminds me of the mermaids from my PeterPan book when I was a kid, but of course it's my favorite ...Ariel!

Really beautiful, sweet and wonderful, also a nice oceany feel with the whale.

Re: alice's adventures in wonderland/Land of Oz

Awesome characters!! Especially love the funky pumpkin with the boingy step to him..the picture tells a story taht is fun to read and it's got the magic going on too!!

Re: Green Eggs and Hamlet

This is amusing, but I'm surprised to see it in the fog. The artwork isn't really that well executed, and aside from the initial "heh" of the visual pun, I'm not really sure what others see in this shirt.

Re: Noah's Ark/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

Wow. That is some skill with color there.

At first I counted the six colors in the rainbow and the dark outline of the boat and thought there were seven colors, then I realized that the blue in the image is the shirt color.

Nice work, looks great! Good luck!

Re: Scheherazade's Other Tales

Each image is fascinating and beautifully done. I love the mermaid best but this is a treat for the eyes, especially wonderful for people who have loved these stories, or enjoy reading. Excellent!!!

Re: Huckleberry Finn / Moby Dick

I love this, great idea and funny!!

Re: Noah's Ark/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

Oh wow you're right it is only six colors! I really thought there were more. This is incredible! I want one! and accurate or not I really like the rainbow.

Re: Sherlock of Oz

It's elementary my dear Beefmoe! This shirt is a terrific mashup, a treat for the eyes and a fun one for sherlock lovers too!!!

Re: War Over Paradise

Jejey this is WOW!!! What an in image, excellent illustration, I am very impressed with this!!!!!

Re: Road Not Taken/Rainy Day

I like how this turned out Jeanerz! I like your solution to the placement and both roads look interesting, this is a great "make you ponder life" design!!

Re: War Over Paradise

As a side note: I could really really use technical advice with Illustrator. Is there a good online resource for illustrator tutorials perhaps? Or maybe someone would be willing to let me PM them occassionally who is well versed in the program?

goatcane wrote:Probably more so... The Cetology chapter is all fact based...

mmm...like when Ishmael says that whales and dolphins are fish, not mammals? ;)

This is a funny design, but way too obvious for my taste. A really good Moby-Dick/Bible mashup could be made, however...I'd like to see the whale in Gethsemane, or Ahab overturning money-changer's tables in the temple. Or Jesus in a whaling boat, manned by dark-skinned rowers and with one seat empty, hurling a harpoon at a mottled whale with a white hump. (The symbology of MD is all over the place, it could be God or the Devil or the destructive power of nature or something we don't quite have a word for yet or...)

Re: Noah's Ark/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

Eshto, the more I look at this the more I think you are one sick puppy!!! (JUST KIDDING!!!!) Seriously, poor Noah is going over board and that one LLamas mate is looking so bummed!!!!


All that aside...this is a bright and vibrant and detailed and carefully created image that is alot of fun to look at , I love the tough, heroic
portrayal of Noah...this is sort of like a comic strip my husband used to do.."Unknown facts in history..."


Very very nice entry , worth the hard work, for the visual you have given us!

You know what? Me too. ;) I never really expected it would get more than a chuckle.

But I'm grateful to everyone who has and continues to comment and vote on it. It's been a real thrill for this newbie watching it climb into the fog.

So, thanks everyone!

Re: Only Time will Tell - Resub

I really like this Pastorroy! Nice clean drawing, you might want to tell what the mashup is...I get the time machine, who is on it ,is that" Death"?

You could edit your original comment to say who the mashup is...

Re: The game is afoot!

This came out great Thrawnfett, the sense of mystery and the nice clean illustration are wonderful, plus I am a Sherlock Holmes fan...he will catch that invisible man!!!

Re: Treas.Isl/Finn/Mr. Hyde Mashed Potato Mashup v.2

UM< I want to eat potatoes now!! I will even eat these with the skull and hyde in there!!! Just cover'em up with gravy!!

Great idea and it does wake the potato lover in me!

Haha...glad ya like it SnowQueenVT, I'm diggin' your new design too...your style is so recognizable, and it works really well for ya! You're one of the few artists on here whose work I can spot without ever having to see the artist name!

I made up a happy little story for this in my head. The squid is just misunderstood and wants to join the other animals on the ark. They fight at first, but one of the platypi is a pacifist, and intervenes. The fight ends and Noah eventually learns the lesson that all animals are God's creatures, even the giant scary ones, and they all become friends.

The llama still gets eaten though. Sorry.

And thank you so much everyone for the compliments. I had no idea the color scheme would work when I started and I am super stoked that it does. All I knew at first was that I wanted the rainbow in there because I wanted it to reflect a children's story version of this. The rainbow and the dove are always there in the toys and kids' stories, and I needed that color and cuteness for the humor. It was a challenge, that's for sure!

Sorry, in my original submission I had put the mash up info but forgot on this one. It's "The Time Machine H. G. Wells" & "The Tell-Tale Heart Edgar Allan Poe" Thus the Title (Only Time Will Tell)

I originally planed it to be the white rabbit from wonderland (I'm Late... I'm Late) then half way through I remembered the no bunnies rule.

Re: Noah's Ark/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

This is incredible. GMV and a definite buy if/when it prints.

I would totally buy a few of these!!!

This is such a great shirt.

Thanks Pastorroy! Now I get it and again, IT 's really cool and I love the time machine!

Re: Romeo and Juliet/Humpty Dumpty

This is a wonderful drawing. I just don't know how you can tell that this is Romeo and Juliet from the drawing. (When I saw the title, I wondered if Humpty Dumpty was going to sit on the wall of her balcony.) Since neither the Montagues or the Capulets were royalty, the crowns look out of place

UNLESS,
maybe this is Cinderella and Prince Charming?

Re: Noah's Ark/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

(RE Eshtos ark and the giant squid just wants to be fiends too)



Oh! That is so sweet! The poor sweet giant squid! Poor bumbling destructive enormous misunderstood gigantic squid wants Noah to love him!! (And he just beats him with his staff!!! Gimme my LLama!!, bad squid!!!)

THis is wonderful...thanks for sharing the REAL story of what happened one day on the ark!

It can't get funnier, it just can't. I don't think it's going to print as totally awesome as it looks on-screen, but I don't care. This is hysterical!

Ah! The voice of reason! This could get you punished, but truth is like that.

Good idea!!!

Originally I did have her in a balcony ...and I had one of those little beanies on Romeos head...after a while I realized that they might not have been royalty...and so You have
hit upon the two things that were in the back of my mind saying " uh uh..." The real story ends so sadly, not this one, in this one their wishes come true!

But I was thinking of you when I was drawing this, I put in extra sparkles ...(To make it look like mardi gras!)

Re: Noah's Ark/20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

VOTE. I MUST BE ABLE TO BUY THIS SHIRT!

I can't believe it took me more than three times looking at this shirt before I saw the platypi. So much love. The colors, everything.
