Shirt.Woot

Re: Bento Break

When you gotta have bento you gotta have bento.

Re: Mister Roboto

Great idea. I wish it were a little less obscure, though.

I'm conflicted on this shirt, it looks amazing and I love the design, but just not digging the kanji. I would wear it if not for the hokey japanese writing, I think the art makes a more powerful statement when it's left to speak for itself.

Big Girl Tokyo rocks! Good luck, I hope it wins!

Re: Plaid Ninja

oh... my eyes! >.<

Re: Dragon Maiden

I started out just sketching in photoshop earlier in the evening and ended up staying up all night to finish this piece. Hope you like how it turned out (and hopefully it'll still look the same when I wake up)

Re: Dragon Maiden

Man I am really not on the ball with this derby- Anyway, this was a sketch that I was working on earlier in the evening and I ended up staying up all night to finish it. I went through a lot of versions of this, so hopefully it'll look the same when I wake up in the morning

But it also depends on the amount of respect you are paying to the person you are thanking so since this was the lowest respect version of the statement, maybe Mr. Roboto was offended and did not want to say "Your welcome."

I'm pretty sure the levels of politeness are more along the lines of

Arigatou (least polite)
Domo Arigatou (Middle)
Domo Arigatou Gozaimasu (most polite)

You also have to keep in mind the musical aspect of rythm, the extra syllables may have been left out for a reason.

Re: Dragon Maiden

The perspective on the umbrella seems a little odd, but the colors really pop on the shirt! Overall, I like it.

Re: Nihon!!!

Am I wrong, or is this one hilarious 300 reference?

I forgot to explain, for those who don't know, the Japanese text translates

"This is Japan!!!"

Re: Prehistoric Japan

nice detail with the bow in the tiger's hair...lol

Re: Kami of the Earth

This is really nice. I would have loved a nice warm brown for the tree. Either way you GMV.

Re: Super Awesome

Looks like a candy bar brand.

Re: Japanese Fighting Fish

this is really, really good.

I'd buy this no question.

consider this.....A VOTE!

Re: Dragon Maiden

I think this is a good effort, Ramy. I appreciate the deviation from your normal style. Just not sure about the teal squiggly/wavey tail - it seems too sketchy and rough to me.

Re: Bento Break

very funny!
you're really riding the wave of success lately!

Re: Rising Sun Samurai

very light and dreamy. Almost half-tone heaven...

Re: Dragon Maiden

I'm usually your biggest fan... but didn't you submit a dragon shirt that looks JUST LIKE THIS like... a derby or two ago???

Re: Dirty

Soot Gremlins! Dirty dirtys Soot Gremlins. So how many times do I have to wash this shirt to get it clean?

Re: Dirty

Oh and I like the typically late soot gremlin!

My favorite shirt in the competition so far - I really do hope it wins. Insta-buy for me! Great work Kdeuce!

Re: Dragon Maiden

I like this, but not against the gray. It just seems a bland backdrop to the bright colors.

Re: Sakura by the cliff

SO pretty. I can't see this one not fogging. GMV.

I agree! I'm sorry to see this not in the fog. Needs more votes!

Re: Sakura by the cliff

This would be perfect to wear for yoga

Re: Dirty

Any issues with copyright on this? I hope not. I love My Neighbor Totoro and I'd be in for one of these. GMV.
