He's only interested in fighting with you! So even if another person comes in and explains why he's wrong, even replying to him directly, he will neither notice nor care. He's already proved that much.

To repeat, abstract art is not the same thing as nonrepresentational art.

Re: 2012: A Collision of Calendars

Best shirt of the derby!

Re: Zodiac Wheel

Genius! I like the feeling I get looking at the design. Like each animal/year has to wait it's turn to come around again.

Re: Zodiac Nap

that rabbit is about to tip right over. and nice idea with the snake shutting the rooster up

Although I wish "light grey" was light grey/silver and not heathered... heather grey always reminds me of cheap walmart shirts. 8(

Eh... you can find shirts like this anywhere though. No gripe against the artist's skill, but I come to w00t for shirts that are... well, different.

Re: metal MONKEY

kewl...I like simple designs and clean lines. This looks great on the dark tee... n1

I've never understood pit stains as I've never had a problem with them, but an old roommate went through many shirts because of this.

Correct. I no longer use aluminum-based antiperspirant deodorant and I have no more yellow stains.

Re: Paw of the Metal Tiger

GMV.... I really like this, but I do not see 143c...does my monitor need re-calibration?

Wow ... so maybe that's what's causing the sparkly, shiny-ness under the arms of some of my black dress shirts.

And here I thought I was just so super-fabulous I'd simply started to sweat glitter from my pores.

Re: Twin Dragons

While I'm not a fan of your usual stuff Ramyb; cute animals, glowing effects, and rehashing the same ideas over and over...

This is better than your original and looks like you put some effort into it.

Re: metal MONKEY

reminds me of scorpion from mortal kombat haha

The Zodiac Emperor

Re: All Aboard the Roost-Aircraft

This still needs more votes!! And cowbell

The Zodiac Emperor

Re: 2012: A Collision of Calendars

If I'm not mistaken, the dragon in the Chinese Zodiac is always earth element.

I like how the original was structured, but wanted to make it much more detailed and generally better looking, so redrew it completely and tried to adjust things based on critiques of the original.

My hand still hurts from gridding and drawing scales for hours :P

ramyb, this is a great design. I saw the previous one and all of the hard work has really paid off for the design.

I don't get why all of the people are hating, you had a great design and you touched it up. It fits the theme. It's funny how serious people take this competition, it's for fun it doesn't determine your social status or anything. This isn't the louvre and there is no reason to criticize the submitted artwork like it is a piece that represents anything hugely significant.

Get a life and if you think you can do better submit your design and stop being a little girl. It's a good shirt and the glow effect isn't that common on the site. Personally i am tired of seeing heather grey shirts and mario designs, but it;s about the creation of the design, not what other people think.
