Re: The Pig Fights Back

I just love what you've done with the sun, gmv

Re: Sunset Luau

Awesome sunset. I actually really like the cropping and how it runs across the shirt. GMV

Re: Fire Dancer

I have always found vector fire very difficult to look great. You have done a wonderfull job. Maybe you could share some tips sometime??

Re: Coconut Bank 2

*giggles*, I really like this! He looks like a little coconut santa claus gmv

Re: eventide

Wow, thanks for the votes, everyone. I always wanted to do a sunset like this with sea grasses- I have a similar photo hanging in my dining room which I took when I was in college. Unfortunately, the negative was ruined.

Re: Martini Luau

My original design had text, because I didn't see the big, bold "No text this week" at the bottom of the instructions. D'oh! So, this is the completely re-vamped version, and I gotta say, I'm as happy with this as I was with my Cookies & Milk design from 2 weeks ago!

Extra bonus, because my 82 yr old mother-in-law said she'd wear it if it came in her size. Hee!

Re: A Tropic Sunset V.2

This reminds me of graphics from "Saved By The Bell" I'd buy it strictly for that reason gmv

Re: Aloha

A: this looks like a stock PacSun or Beach Store shirt.

B: Remember when it said, no text?

Re: Hula Time

GMV

Re: Let's All Go To The Luau!!!

Love it! I too saw your early sketches and I think this turned out great! gmv

Re: Liquid Hibiscus

umm, sorry but can some one explain how this is not a copy of, I don't know, every hawaiian shirt ever made?

Re: Luau: 10% Metal

clever, GMV

Re: (Title eaten by giant fruit.)

HAHAHAHA. The fruit fights back Great twist on this derby, gmv

i think they were being facetious about the originality...

Re: Tiki God Awakens

I too really like the wood grain. That would be one monstrous tiki god! Poor little fellas on that island... gmv

Re: Pacific Sunset

This a really cool design. I dig the abstract presentation and placement. GMV

Re: Monsters like luaus, too

Awww i love the look on the monster's face, so sad!

This is great. The design looks fantastic at first glance and gets better as you look at the details - I love that water.

Re: Martini Luau

Now I'm thirsty. Mahalo!

Re: Hula Time

has my vote, love lizards. currently the only design i would vote for/buy so far

Re: Pacific Sunset

I agree, very unique style with this one!

Re: Tiki Dancer

Boy he looks really unhappy! I tried my hand at a tiki god, but couldn't get it to look right, you did a great job, especially just over your lunch break! gmv

The Best

Re: Liquid Hibiscus

Don't sweat it folks- it will probably get rejected. Not because it's uninspired, etc., but because similar shirts already exist...

Kevin Dart is relatively new on the scene, but within two years he's already worked with Pixar, Laika, and seems to be creating a new show for Disney TV. Also I think he already has a book out or something. And he's my new hero.

Whoa that's awesome.
I'm surprised I hadn't heard of Dart until just now...especially in knowing he was once affiliated with Disney/Pixar. I'm all over the animation scene and would like to make a career out of it.

Thanks for the info. and best of luck to you in this derby. It's definitely deserving of being in the fog. Good luck & take care.

Re: The Pig Fights Back

This is great Loop! I love the fire in the pigs eyes and the forks that the people are holding. It just pulls it all together for me.

Thank you for all your nice compliments and for your votes. I'm glad you guys think it's funny. I was worried how I could imply all of the luau party without making it too complicated, but fortunately the silhouettes weren't too hard.

Awesome work, and thanks for the link at the beginning- that guy is amaaaazing!

Re: Liquid Hibiscus

For some reason copy and pasting into a pattern is getting votes...2nd time seen this style and it got same votes off the start...maybe I'll try this next time. If it gets the votes, then something has to be done right.

Re: Houndstiki Pattern

Kinda needs to be the shape of a tiki idol too...the giant rectangle of art isn't very attractive.
