Re: The Sex Drugs

Excellent illustrative work. A+ and GMV.

Things like this remind me that I really need to brush up my techniques in vector.

The Hear no evil panda sure looks like the drummer one.

No way! This is clearly a brand new design.

This is pretty cool! GMV

This is adorable! GMV :]

re: the wizards

This was a combination of Aerosmith, the beatles, and TOTO...

Play off of two ton boa? Or am I being silly?

Re: The 5 Panda 'lectrical band

Whoa, deja vu.

Re: The Caterwaulers

I think they played here last night...

Never heard of 'em. It was a band name a friend of mine came up with a long time ago- thought it was hilarious and used it.

thanks tgentry! I usually draw strait on my tablet, when doing shirt designs. but I occasionally sketch ideas out on paper first. this one I did on my tablet but it really depends. you cant beat a good old pencil and a piece of paper! I love tactile media!

Re: Under the Blues

Well, I guess if they're influenced by Jars of Clay, then I'm cool with it.

marmls2m wrote:i have not yet looked through all the entries in this derby, but i am fairly sure this is the worst band tee i have ever seen. is the green swirly supposed to be the band logo? if it is, that is also a very poor decision on the part of your fake band. a band logo is supposed to be something easily recognizable to help brand the band. the only way this would work is if your fake band was so popular, the name struck immediate recognition, which is the opposite of what this derby is going for, coolness through obscurity. without it, i would think the person wearing this shirt was a jamba juice employee wearing their work shirt out in public

What....? I have a feeling this made sense in your head when you said it, for serious, what?

Just about everything about this is fairly unique and if you've ever been to a concert, it fits in with just about all of the merchandise sold unless death-core speed metal bands are the only shows you go to. Between the font, the colors, and the symbol which is unique enough to stand out and immediately be recognized, this is just about everything a band would want in a shirt. And this derby has nothing to do with obscurity, it was simply a lead in by woot that obviously if an obscure band is cool than a non-existent one but be absolutely fracking awesome!!!

It was a joke. Get it? Jokes are funny. hah hah?

Re: Let The Procrastination Begin!

This is pretty awesome. Could this be your larpers all grown up? It's absolutely criminal that someone with as much talent as you've shown with your incredibly detailed entries has not printed more.

Re: Let The Procrastination Begin!

This has the feel of the old Al Hirshfeld drawings. I wanted to look for the name NINA in all the places where lines intersected.

Re: The Mighty Mighty Eucharists

Please print this somewhere! I would love to have it!

That's why they fired their manager. Not enough college towns.

A special thanks to Victor Bagu for letting me use his free font, KonQa Black, for a "perhaps commercial" use.

Re: The Caterwaulers

They play outside my window every night. I wish they wouldn't...

brendan948725 wrote:See you all at the Wucitiliolus show!

Everybody will be there. It's going to be epic. I hear they've actually bought a gold plated cowbell.

hewtab wrote:On a side note, why did the artist use Hermione's wand for this shirt? Shouldn't it be Draco's or even Voldemort's.

I'm going to hate myself for admitting I know this . . .

The artist used Hermione's wand because she's the most famous "mudblood" in the series. Draco is a pureblood and Voldermort is, I believe, a half-blood (like Harry).

Sometimes, the strangest ideas come from work.

Thank you so much! I can't take all the credit. My boyfriend came up with this name a while ago and we joked that it should be the name of our band. When I read the derby theme this week we both knew it would be perfect. I will take the credit for the artwork though

Thank you for your encouragement, maybe one day one of my entries will get printed! That would be really really awesome! It must be a pretty satisfying feeling to know there are people walking around with your art on their shirt.

Re: Gonna Make You Lunch

!!! Im very unhappy to see this out of the fog...I hope you get pushed back up there soon!

Re: Space Owl Solo

Don't think me crazy because I like owls.

Feedback and votes appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: Space Owl Solo

This is my favorite of all your owls! I like the purple on navy and the outer space that's in the background. The whole design looks kinda kooky and I love that. What's that on his chest? GMV!

Re: Slave of the Senses

I am so disppointed that dumb bunnies and pander bears are fogged and not this. No wonder I haven't bought a new shirt since...um...I don't know when.

Re: The Sex Drugs

This one basically needs to win.

Re: Space Owl Solo

lol, so the lead singer quit the band and decided to try to go solo?

Re: now appearing in Seattle, Portland, NY, San Fran..

LOL! Im in for one!

Re: now appearing in Seattle, Portland, NY, San Fran..

- Great! - I really really want 2 of these!

When will it end????? Personally, I blame Woot for starting to offer children's sizes. That was when the downfall of the Derby and IMHO the quality of shirts offered as dailies started and the cute began.

I know, those darn kids. :@ How DARE they want to wear clothes! Everyone knows they should just be stuck in rags and sacks till they're old enough to wear big people clothes!

I'm guessing this will get all the "cutesy" bashing, but if it prints, I'm in for one.

I love it and would totally buy it and vote for it, but again because of the crappy scratches, I just can't.

I have been enlightened. My life is complete.

Re: Space Owl Solo

Hahah, awesome! I REALLY like this, especially the colors! I also like how you tease us in the other thread with a work in progress design, and then you come out with something totally different!

Re: [url=http://shirt.woot.com/Derby/Entry.aspx?id=33048]Vlad

This is absolutely the best shirt in this derby. Too bad it's so low on the totem pole because I would buy at least 3 of these.

Re: Interplanetary Bunnies

Fogged? Ugh.

Re: The Liberty Bells

Yes I went there... I did a fake boy band shirt. Big whoop.. you wanna fight about it?
