Shirt.Woot

Re: PAYBACK

I think it's an awesome design for a shirt, I love it.

Re: Ask Mr. Owl

sorry i voted for the first one, i liked the simplicity of it. I don't care for the background, i liked the more subtle coloring of the branch and gun, and i liked it much better on the red. although i do like the addition of the turtle

I dunno. Maybe it's just that I'm not into guacamole.

That looks about as much as a jalapeno with arms and legs and a big ol' smile can. And I like that it's a fairly unconventional take since it doesn't have to stem on top.

I get a lot of my inspiration from the 70's and 80's Grindhouse era of films, so I was instantly motivated by the theme to pay homage to (in my opinion) the most kick ass time for the horror genre.

Some of you guys might remember 'The House of Madness" when I submitted it over at Designs By Humans some time ago.
I've reworked the illustration with different colors, and added in the film effects to make it look like a special promotion item for the film. I think it looks even better than my original DBH submission.

The motivation of this piece, as I mentioned over there, was the absolutely awesome artwork that was created for Grindhouse era film posters. I thought it would be cool to bring the House of Madness back for this contest, and coupled with the still in progress, but nearing completion thanks to Mr. CrescentDebris (we temporarily ran out of funds from the film studio) "Zombie Doom Squad" make the 2 designs a special "DRAK DOUBLE FEATURE."

I've had (and am still having, since Zombie Doom Squad is still in production) a boatload of fun with these designs, and I hope you guys, especially the genre fans get a kick out of them.

Thanks as always, and here's the poster:


And heres a link to a larger comp to take a look at the details:

I REALLY REALLY WANT THIS AS A SHIRT

overeating much favored grits!!! Drakxxx, I've commented on both shirts before, but the double-feature comp just blows my mind. Could you do both - Zombie Death Squad with the House of Madness as the lead-in? Then publish both someplace for us to grab them as posters? Lol! No, I know it's not realistic, but damn! Too good, and too reminiscent of my day watching every blood-drenched movie released to the drive-ins. (No, NOT Grindhouse - we didn't have a name for it then.)

Re: Italian Counting

How do I vote? Yes, I am stupid.

Re: sliced bread

I'm totally buying this if it gets in places.
Stellar work!

Re: Holy Guacamole!

If this doesn't make it as a shirt, any thought of printing it as a print? I'd certainly buy one.

Re: Woo Curling!

I can't believe this one was pulled. It was in the top 10 and looking like I was going to purchase one. I'm sad.

Eh, maybe it just seems like six months... ;)

Re: Dr. Feelgood

Thanks again, for all of your support, guys. I never expected to get this many votes, and it's truly humbling.

I'll be back this next derby for sure. Hope you continue to find my designs interesting and wearable.

Re: Vinyl Is Dead

I completely agree ! If it is ever available, please let me know. I would buy in a NY minute

Wish I had returned in time to see this. I've done stick and TIG. I thought stick was more challenging (LOVED the sparks), but TIG was pretty cool. As for the tools, I may not have used those, but you may not have used a steering wheel puller.

Rosie is not sacred, but she was an icon at a time when symbols were important.

Re: Rap Attack Version: POP!

I definitely like this one more than the yellow version. I hope you win a Resub derby :/

If this shirt doesn't print on Sunday I'm boycotting Woot.

Re: McFly Skateboards

Well - I'm probably not going to boycott, but I fervently hope thatrobert has this printed elsewhere. SRSLY - I'll buy 2.

Yeah man... I was really lookin forward to this one. Anyone know if there's still a way to get it?

.....All we can do is hope for an Editors choice. I really really wanted this shirt...*sigh*...gristle.

Re: Holy Guacamole!

WHAT WHAT WHAT. How could this not have won?

itstak wrote:.....All we can do is hope for an Editors choice. I really really wanted this shirt...*sigh*...gristle.

I really wanted this one too. My boyfriend and I already fought over who would get to buy it. I won. But now I see I have lost. Oh irony! Hope it gets an HM.

Re: Mista Mista

I am so bummed this didn't make top 3. I love this shirt, and these were my favorite books as a kid.

darel wrote:WHAT WHAT WHAT. How could this not have won?

I was wondering the same thing. =(

Dang, I was really hoping for this one too. My girlfriend is a curler and was hoping to get it for her bonspiel tourney at the end of the month. I would be a happy man if you choose this for editors choice!

Re: Curling Adventure! New from Smacktivision!

You have to give yourself a Best Losers award for this. You just have to.
