LOL. I agree!

Re: I don't share

I love this. It's cute, funny, and artistic. It would be fantastic to wear on Thanksgiving! GMV.

Re: Harvest Heist

if theres a video game ban, i want a bunny ban.

Re: Brand New Love

It's cute, but I wonder if the placement might be a little high for the ladies. Nice work, though.

Re: The Hamburger Tree

I want this shirt so badly I could cry.

Re: Dream Harvest

I really like the idea. I get what you're going for with the screens. A few solid lines might add a little more depth, but overall I like it.

Can we add a "shirts that will print not even close to well" ban?

Re: I don't share

Can everyone please stop using halftones to create a pointless smoke effect. Yes, it looks cool. But it adds nothing to an otherwise very creative and interestingly drawn shirt.

Re: Shadesalicious

Don't even try to make sense of this picture. Sometimes absurdity just needs to remain unexplained.

Here is a link to a larger shot of the design.

If you don't get the connection to the harvest theme, the cucumbers have been harvested and the setting is on a farm. Pretty simple. The sunglasses...well that's another matter entirely, and we won't even attempt to go into that here.

Hope you enjoy.

Re: A bear feast

I see gluttony, not harvest. I also see hackneyed, not original.

Their harvest! They are packin it up to take home. Old bread, fish parts, pieces of vegetables, and other food stuffs you'd find in garbage cans: )

Thanks!

Re: I don't share

Thank you, everyone, for your support and kind comments. I do it all for you (and the possible pay-out) but mainly for you!

kylemittskus wrote:Can we add a "shirts that will print not even close to well" ban?

I'd actually like to see that as a reason for rejection. Woot should know what will print well on a shirt, and in theory it's something an artist could fix and resubmit.

I would love to have a real cornucopia that looks like this, for my fall tabletop. If it actually tried to bite people, that would be a plus.

Cukes wear sunglasses because they're "cool as a cucumber."

As for the cows and sun, "the future's so bright, they gotta wear shades."

Makes perfect sense to me.

Re: Lopsided Harvest

cool...

Re: He became attached to his mice harvest

Awww, I like how the eye's owls are slightly tilted at the top to make him look all sad... how cuteee

also, he can eat marshmallows instead (or something) xD

Re: He became attached to his mice harvest

awww!!! This is adorable! Loves it!

Re: Chock Full O' Nuts

Rofl this is fantastic. I love the squirrel's expression

truffleshuffle wrote:Thanks!! I feel like the whole time I was making this, I knew in the back of my head that it would work better as a painting or storybook illustration or something than on a shirt. I put a lot of work into it though, so I just wanted to give it a shot here. Hopefully it won't totally flop! haha

You should be an illustrator! :D

I love your style, as always. Personally the main guy in the front scares me a little but I like the girl dancing. lol

Re: Raccoon Harvest Time

haha I would wear this camping....we are always aware of the fact that the racoons may get our food if we aren't careful!!!! hope you win!

Mavyn wrote:I like the sun and the colors, but wheat and other harvestable grasses are pretty straight. So the bends are confusing. If the stalks were more straight, sort of a sweeping curve, I think it would flow better.

Soooo, I realize wheat is straight, and I actually started to draw something that was like a giant orange-y moon with flow-y wheat stalks as a semi-silhouette in front, but then I realized the style wasn't me. I wasn't happy with what I was drawing because it seemed overdone and not something I'd draw. So I went with something I felt more comfortable drawing -- I like the zig-zaggy shape of the "wheat" stalks I drew just because to me, it adds character. Maybe it's not realistically correct, but I'm happy with it.

naisemaj wrote:honestly the only one i like so far in the derby, and yeah, wheat is a straight stalk, but just because it isn't a picture of wheat doesn't make the shirt bad. pretty coloring and good placement along with a simple design; i couldn't ask for more.

Thanks for the compliment! I'm glad you see what I see.

truffleshuffle wrote:I really like the shading technique on the moon and how its sorta wonky rather than perfectly circular. Its just really appealing to me for some reason, haha

Hehe, I prefer the non-perfect-shapes as well. Thanks for your comment, as always!

thericochet wrote:i really like the cranberry against the other color(s), but i think it'd help if the moon was a crescent moon, because without the title it looks like it could be any type of sphere. it looks like more of a sun than a moon. a crescent moon would definitely help.

but but but.. it's a Harvest Moon..! If it was a crescent moon it would be off topic... T^T lol But point taken -- I just google imaged 'harvest moon' and they looked orange and beautiful, which is what I was going for (and kind of failed :x)

Hmm, I don't know which you're referring to.. but if you remember, I'd be curious to look it up. Thanks for always commenting & supporting Jasneko-San!

Re: Shadesalicious

I love cucumbers! So deliciously healthy. I like the yellow on the green :] gmv

Re: Smoke 'em if you Got 'em

Off topic?

Re: Time To Chillax

aww, this is cute. Personally I don't like the royal blue Tshirt color, but I like how you used the blue as the night sky with the stars -- pretty!

Re: Dream Harvest

I agree with the general comments of others about the foggyness, but wow, I love this. I love the idea, the little lined houses and the gold/white specks against the blues. Beautiful <3

Re: Fruit mixer

Awe-- the design got really stretched out looking. :c It's supposed to look like it does on the thumbnail just so you know.

Re: Harvest Mouse and the Pumpkin Patch

Great illustration, your technique very nice and I like the palette. I agree the mouse whiskers are a little cockeyed, but I think you've got a knack for this kind of design. I admire your style and I'd certainly gift this one. gmv

Re: Smoke 'em if you Got 'em

You're killin' me. It's been four weeks since I had one of those bad boys. You're killin' me. But I still like the design.

Re: critter harvest

Excellent work. GMV

Re: Scareperson

This design is absolutely awesome. Voted and will purchase if it wins.

vosges1945 wrote:This design is absolutely awesome. Voted and will purchase if it wins.

Adding a bit more after my first comment:

Aside from it being a great design, this is something that I first came to love about Woot shirts - unique and artistic.

Lately the shirts have become graphic illustrations of middle school humor or so obscure that no one can possibly understand them unless they knew about the derby they were entered in.

This one needs no explanation and looks great; that's why I'll buy it if it wins

Re: Sky Harvest

I really enjoy the look and feel of this. As others have noted, it's soothing and well thought out. This is also one of those few times when I approve of the halftones. The simplicity and the limited palette works well for this. Great job as always, Travis.

Re: Scareperson

I'm always envious of your line-work, Drakxxx. You consistently create wonderful pieces with such detail and line scratching and I think it was a perfect decision to go with the olive shirt. It's been a while since we had a really good olive shirt design win in a very long time (personally, I feel we haven't had a good olive shirt design win a derby since Fee! Fie! Foe! Fum! last October... though 3 olive shirt designs have won since then.)

binkdrop wrote:I understand your design much better now. I feel I should apologize for not initially recognizing the references, but now that I understand them, I can appreciate the concept behind it much more. Neat idea to incorporate the Ghost Busters with the classic American Gothic.

It's ok, it's kind of an old reference, (on both accounts). I'm also not sure that ghostbusters was ever popular outside of North America. Thanks for checking it out though.

He's a little sad and confused... thanks Mikan
Marshmellows - sure, why not?
