Re: Paleolithic pipsqueak

I love it!!! Love the teeny buttcrack. And I LOVE the dead cow = hamburger, lOl!!

I take it back, this is clearly the best of the titanic designs. Great work!

western culture by far! I think it's a solid concept.

Re: crossing the atlantic

Those must be the same super-strong seagulls that carried James's peach. :D

Re: Ben's Motivation

Light-hearted? Nice try, Drakxxx. We all know that rubber ducky is secretly evil. >;D

voted! ^_^

Re: EurekAHH!

"Eureka", while potentially applicable here, usually refers to Archimedes' discovery of mass, not Newton.

Re: That´s one small step...

Awesome - love it. I just wonder if it might not sit better on (can't believe I'm suggesting this) asphalt?

Re: Beer is proof that God loves us...

DUDE.

I almost think it's overkill to both have ol' Ben be drunk, AND have the Frankenstein reference, but really I just think it's awesome.

Awesome and overkill. They're often the same thing.

Yeah, lucky Lindy! Well illustrated. Good work.

just as long as her neck blood doesn't ruin my cake.

Billy took the first shot, but the Hindenburg may exact it's revenge.

Re: A Ballad of John Henry

wow, I love this illo!, awesome work!

Optimus Primes great grandfather! Excellent work.

Re: Paleolithic pipsqueak

Thanks for all your support guys!

In the late 1800's during the railroad boom, John Henry was a man that bested a new, steam powered railroad spike driving machine, but died of exhaustion from his efforts. It's a great story of man vs machine, although its veracity and details are debated by historians.

Re: The Angry Girlfriend

This is one of my favorite photos, and I love what you've done with it. The twist is great. =) GMV!

No one expects the laser Manatee! Very funny.

Somewhat less trustworthy. Excellent style!

great detail work around the eyes. Looks like you and Tim Burton would be buddies.

But what the hell. Got nothing to lose on this design.

I went back to look at all the available colors Woot offers. They don't have a grey like I was thinking (I was hoping for something imbetween heather grey and asphalt). As for the green, I was thinking along the lines of olive.

See, for instance, this one on olive:

It's not a cat. Duh. Cat's don't drink tea.

lol. I want it on your person too. Thanks!

Re: So that's why it leans...

That's an awesome creature. I like how you did the shading and the clouds too.

Re: Paleolithic pipsqueak

love these colors!

I am very sad that your shirts at MySoti only go up to XL. Us fatties like your designs too.

Re: So that's why it leans...

This is epic, I love it! I've always enjoyed your monsters, I hope this one wins :-)

Re: That´s one small step...

Thanks everyone
Glad this is still in the magic fog!
-I tried Asphalt, but decided it works better on Heather Grey. Also because it even adds more "sandy" structure to it.
-Greys are necessary cause the first man on the moon was such a b-w situation

Oh please please please please win!

I was thinking about how guys work on weekend projects with their buddies in the garage. You know? Like restoring a car or whatever. Lot's of beer is usually involved, so I thought that was funny. But obviously there's something about this that's putting people off.

Re: The Missing Gene

Also - re:copyright etc.

This is a tough call. Someone must know how to split the legal hairs here.

Is Gene Simmons of KISS a public figure OR is Gene Simmons of KISS a copyrighted character?

Re: The man who ended the war

Hello MOONBOY, I think its brilliant! +1

Re: The Angry Girlfriend

You know, from my experience with dating a guy in the military, this was probably pretty accurate.

Re: Grrrrrrrr. Make me some tea!

I love your style! you have skills!

Re: The Angry Girlfriend

Thanks everyone for the great comments!

Arparham's idea was a good one... for people interested in the creative process... her idea:
------------
V-Day! The nurse and the sailor. Then… do what you want in the back ground!

We could:
-his girlfriend being held back from trying to beat the nurse. (he was actually with his gf at the time and later married her.)
-have it be a photo shoot
-the world falling apart, there is only a little bit of land under them
-T-Rex is running after everyone
-THE MARSHMELLOW MAN after everyone
-Everyone is a zombie
-Anything… and they can all be changed to be more G or even use animals.
-------------

I decided to go with the girlfriend idea to keep it the most possibly happened/on theme... looks like that might not have mattered in woot's eyes, but glad people are digging it and props to Arparham for her creative idea

Thx for the compliment! I had wondered if it would be a little too obscure.

Re: Fast Times With Che

Thought the "joker" face needed to pop out more. So I put the most annoying face on there I could think of.

Also tried different colors--grey, olive--but it seemed best on Communist red.

Re: Fast Times With Che Guevara

I wanted the joker's face to be more prominent, and I liked Gratzy's idea of a more olive shirt.

Got rid of the white faces--with one it was cool, with two white faces they looked like a pair of mimes.

I went with the most annoying face I could think of for the Joker.

Re: The man who ended the war

Don't change a thing GMV and a buy if it wins.

Agreed. It also changed how we think of music and what artists rose to the forefront. I would have definitely bought this shirt had it been in the top three. Very few of the others submitted thus far interest me.
