Shirt.Woot

I love the texture of the waves. Great rendering. The gray parts seem a little weird on light blue on my screen but I'm sure it looks fine printed.

That snorkel ought to save the duck.

Congrats Sokowa! Glad to see you get printed here again!

Alas, after a traumatic childhood incident with a Rubber Ducky, this shirt frightens me terribly....

I'd wear this, and will. It's aesthetically pleasing. I don't know or think there is a joke behind it, but I'm sure there is some sort of interesting story as to how the little rubber duck ended up riding the waves. Or I could atleast fabricate one, if some one were to ask. I enjoyed this design very much.

thanks for the boss shirt, boss.

Oh, geez. I am so unprepared for my baths and I never even realized it!

Cheers~

Thank you, for such a great design. I love the little guy and his high seas adventures. I have a friend who is a huge fan of rubber ducks and I just have to get this for her. I am so glad this made it to print. Thanks again.

It's actually pretty simple.

Step 1. Open the shirt.woot package
Step 2. Put on the shirt
Step 3. Flaunt it around all of your jealous friends

Congratulations, you just successfully wore the shirt previously thought to be "unwearable."

So... what was your first shirt you purchased? That way we can get an idea of your style...


wait... the box is blank. My bad.


Grats Soko!!! Well deserved. You should have also had your 'Joust' shirt printed this last Do Over Derby... I hope you put that up someplace as well.

Wow artists can get a little sensitive, remember we're still the ones buying the shirt, so our opinions kinda matter no matter how many shirts we've sold- zero for me,

Congrats Sokowa! Nice way to make a comeback

Congrats Sokawa!

This derby produced a trifecta of some of my favorite designers!

Great job Sokowa. This was a nice surprise on a Sunday morning. I hope it sells well for you.

Congrats, Sokowa!! So good to see you here again.

The "we call this color" for today is amazing. "Baby Blue Duck?" Pure Woot / Lonesome Dove Gold.

So glad this came up today! I was worried when it wasn't yesterday's shirt...Congrats!

Nine years into Millenium Two
Rubber Ducky sailed the ocean blue

He eeked three squeaks and fled the drain
He bobbed past wash rag, soap, and ring stain

He bobbed all night and the day throughout
'Cuz nobody drained the water out

He followed the tub ring along the side
Lacking a compass, it was his guide

He sailed out hunting the ducky wench
A quacking desire he sought to quench

Our rubber ducky he could not sleep
His fear of the water being so deep

Then came the waves from the plungers work
The drain was clogged which seemed a quirk

The waves rose so high along the side
Sending our ducky on the wildest ride

The waves tossed him to an unknown height
Water on the floor such a messy sight

At last Sokowa cleared the drain so clogged
Good for ducky 'cuz he was waterlogged

He found his wench at the bottom o' the tub
And they got down with their rub-a-dub-dub

I would've been in for 2; too bad it's baby blue.

Congrats on the print...

O.M.G... an original design that's not 100% cute animals or silk-screened dragons? On woot?!

Hmm, I must have clicked on the wrong bookmark...

love this shirt! congrats artist!

I think it's a great shirt. Got one for me and my daughter. She's gonna get a kick out of it.

you still have woot bookmarked?

I actually often get here without typing the "r". it makes me feel more honest about where I'm headed

I really want to get this for my daughter who LOVES ducks- but she's only 16 months, I wonder how long it would take for her to grow into a K4...

Looks too rough. Pass.

Is this shirt day light savings proof?

It lasted the evening, so I'm going to wager a guess and say yes.

For those on the edge, the image is blurry (even the large image looks blurry to me).

You can see a Detail here, on the entry discussion page

As for the design itself, I love it! I'm just worried about whether it can be printed to the resolution it requires. Anybody know the actual resolution of the shirt printing process? Every Woot print I've seen looks good, but those are really fine lines!

This t-shirt makes me think of the following event...

The true tale of rubber duckies lost in the ocean!

Did you mean bought, not sold? because I think that makes more sense here. If you mean sold, regardless of if you've sold a shirt or not, I still think opinion matters... however, he basically said that all woot sells is artwork that shouldn't be on a shirt. He's been on that account for almost 8 months without a purchase and almost squat for posts as to his opinion. There have been MANY various shirts to come along in that time, good, bad and indifferent. There must have been one he could have snagged to show his taste or he could have voiced his opinion more than the pittance he's done in his time here. I can understand someone who's only been around for a week or two not buying a shirt yet or not yet voicing their opinion much.

He just sounds like he wanted to be a jerk about it.

I think I need to get my eyes checked or something, 'cause I think that the shirt's waving at me!

I really like the artwork on this shirt and the other derby winners, I just don't see these as something I'd wear much. I was really hoping that the Atlantic Chainsaw Massacre would win.

Love this shirt! It reminds me of the children's book by Eric Carle "Ten Little Rubber Ducks". A box of ducks falls overboard while being shipped and they all go in different directions. Makes me miss teaching preschool.

hmm.....no Quality Posts today?

Either we're just not very clever, original, or noteworthy, or woot's taken the day off...

Yay Sokowa! Congrats on the print, even if I can't afford one now, and I'm glad to see you back.

Concured.

Also, I wanted to add to Sokowa that I saw this shirt when it was over at Threadless and I was very disappointed when it didn't print. I'm really happy you got it this go around so I can flaunt it about. :D Love your work!

Everyone went to church to pray for quality dailies this week ;)

Woot should have infant sizes too. =^)

Brillant. You art mastery makes me wish my art were better. Also, ducks are straight up awesome...I might just have to buy this shirt!
