If that were true ramy and seki would never print.

Seki, why are you hated so?

Because she just resubbed a design that was rejected for unoriginality by spraypainting the cat?

How'd you get a picture of my girlfriend on here!? Hahahah. Excellent illustration!

Re: Feed Your Inner Demon

Sweet design! Love that glow effect .

Re: On This Night There Be Monsters

Sweetness! It's like the cookie monster of the sea!

kdubbs29 wrote:I love the rendering of the tree. Great job!

Agreed! The tree is amazing! Definitely the best part of the design. Very unique.

Re: Creeping Darkness

Drakxxx loves his cranberry. :p

Neat design. dgmv, but I've always admired your style, and this is no different.

Re: I Like Candy

Okay, THIS has gmv. Wow.

Re: Zombie Vampire Robots from Space

Love the parody! Nice combination... or not so nice I should say. +1

Re: but srsly it's mai pumpkin

Wow. What little respect I had for you as an artist just dropped even lower. Have you no shame? Can't you except a rejection with dignity and design something original? It's true that, although a person may not care for your style of artwork, you are still entitled to submit designs with your own style (anime, shiny, curly, or whatever the case may be), just like every other artist does...but can't you just admit that it wasn't original, that it was rejected, and move on? Why do you have pull a stunt like this? Graciously step away from the design and start over.

Re: Requiem of The Soul Stealer

That giant sheet of ink will definitely help insulate that much more during those chilly October Evenings. :p

Re: but srsly it's mai pumpkin

Your blatant disrespect for this community is completely and utterly disgusting. Though, if this shirt printed, I might consider buying it. Because at least then I'd have a shirt that I wouldn't be upset about vomiting alcohol and candy all over after my three day Halloween party binge. I mean sure, the vomit would ruin it, but lets face it. This design is pretty much vomit anyway.

Re: The Monster Bash

The sketchy style is great on this. Its like comic book meets horror film. Nice design.

Re: but srsly it's mai pumpkin

Wow seki, and I thought Adder was cynical. This is downright insulting.

Re: Till Death Do Cat and Keys Part

Keyboard Cat from terrific Wisconsin! GMV!

I wish you would submit a lot more. Some of my favorites ever have been yours. Still a little pissed "Civil War" never printed.

lol, I can see the inside of the fridge.. blood oranges are loose causing havoc on the other inhabitants. The poor ketchup bottle has one sucking on his neck.. the tomatoes are bleeding profusely from puncture wounds, and you don't want to know what happened to the strawberries!

I really hope people take the time to realize that this is why ramy and seki have absolutely no respect from the community here. It's not because we are jealous and it's not because we hate their designs (though they are terrible).

It's because they have no class, no integrity and no originality, no creativity and most importantly no respect for anyone.

I'll have to check out your other ones.

Tjost had a couple in the Blue derby that were quite good and not Muppet related. I particularly liked "Earth Juice".

Zombie dogs don't have Chibi eyes. You coulda' at least made the eyes white.

But hey, the theme is Halloween, and as we have just witnessed....Ramyb has made a shirt on theme! This is something to celebrate, no matter how rehashed this idea is.

Re: Halloween Is For Everyone!

All children love to trick or treat!!!

I absolutely agree! The anger stems from this kind of BS, not from their bad art. The bad art just makes an easy target. This is PATHETIC.

Re: We Carves People

...so excellent, as always.

Re: fresh blood oranges

here's a second version

That one was really nice. The colors were amazing. i also liked the Igor's Harvest. I just didn't realize those were tjost. I love how easy SDS makes it to track artists and their submissions.

jewelwing wrote:Yes it is! Extra points to you for knowing that.

Haha! It just looked that way to me. Do moon-eyed monsters have an actual folkloric basis or is it something of your own invention?

xazothia wrote:I guess my problem with this design is I'm not really sure what's going on. Are they scared because there's a real ghost there? Or is it that two kids both dressed as knights? The text isn't very enlightening.

The artwork itself is fine, but the message isn't really clear.

Hmmm thanks for the reply! The kids and dog in costume are meeting their "real" counterparts... The kid knight is being challenged to a duel by a real knight, the little girl is shocked to see a real, scary witch, and the dog with the
ghost costume is being confronted by a real, scary ghost!

What could I do to make it clearer to you (or anyone) in the design, or even in the title?
Thanks for your help!

It's a big improvement but even from the first submission I could not help but think of Bunnicula. Even more so now.

Re: Creeping Darkness

Dual-fogged and well deserved. Go drakxxx go.

Re: Bite ME

the shirt to answer the door in...

Re: Zombie Vampire Robots from Space

Excellent...must have...

Re: Trick or Treat Terror

I had to read the comments to get the dog. It's really cute. GMV!

Did this make sense to you when you typed it?

Re: Feed Your Inner Demon

Not so hot on the chibi kid, but that gradient and monster design is plain awesome.

Me neither. Unneeded injection of 'inanimate-object-schadenfreude' always bugs me.

Re: BRAINS!

does it glow in the dark?? cuz that would be awesome!

:D

Re: Requiem of The Soul Stealer

Triple fogged! I know it probably won't happen (considering how early it is), but an all-Drakxxx Halloween derby would be kind of awesome.

No disrespect to other designers of course. There are plenty of great designs in this derby.

Re: RAWR! WE'RE MONSTERS!

The solid colors over the outlines and the bats on top of the heather gray really look great. Good design, good execution. Really deserves a print.

Re: the flavor of the season

Pretty cool. Reminds me of Jae Lee or Tomm Coker.
