I had a similar thought

Good job on this one, Bass. Poor guy on the end seems resigned to his fate. Reminds me somewhat of the "food horror" meme that was going around for awhile. I know some were sick of 'em, but I'm still a sucker for those shirts, esp when they're done as well as this one.

You know I've always wondered that too. Would be nice to get some official documentation from Woot on what the smallest size point is they can print. I've seen some various posts from artists in the forums, but with conflicting sizes, so I really don't know what to go off of myself.

Re: It Pours

not my best job but i though the salt girl and a slug would be funny so i did a quicky.

Re: Playground

Love your collabs, but it's nice to see your individual stuff, too, esp when it's as brilliant as this. Great job!

Re: Under The Weather

I am a few votes shy of 9000, if anyone could help me out with the other 8983 it would be much appreciated

Re: Sponge Rain Horror

If I wore this the day after wearing Donut Panic, I think people would start to think I have a problem . . . a problem of BEING TOO otterific!!!

Re: singing in the rain

I foresee a win, a print, and a listing as 'Most Kid-friendly".

Re: Tickles to Tinkles

How do you do this week after week? Your characters are amazing, your ideas just subversive enough to be guiltily hilarious

Re: Sponge Rain Horror

Thank you so much for your great words for this design. I'm glad it's as much fun as I thought it was when I made the original sketch!

I love the robot, his experession is great! I'd work on the rain. Maybe it's just me, but it looks more like background design rather than something that's actually interacting with your character.

Keep cracking, would love to see more of your stuff.

Re: Anything but boring

Beautifully done. I love this at least as much as I disliked the cryptid entry.
They just need a rug, so they can be as snug as a bug...

i was gunning to get this rule, but i guess 'twas not to be this week. oh well.

what makes you think i didn't?

I'm dead-certain it is, and they will. And even if it isn't directly in violation of copyright, it's certainly not going to pass muster as either original, art, or parody. "Homage" (if that's your intention) this close doesn't usually make it.

Another nice one!

Much thanks walmazan!

hehe ah well, a cat grumping in a puddle is cute too!

cantstopthesignal wrote:I don't like the stock-middle-of-the-chest placement. I would really rather have the side placement.

Aw, I'm sorry about that... I like side placements too... the design ended up being wider than I planned which didn't work quite as well with the side and most people in the pre-derby thread seemed to prefer the center. Look out for future designs though, because I do like side placements!

Re: Playground

This is marvelous! I get the same vibe I did with cmdixon's White Stripes. both of you keep messin' with us...

Re: Tickles to Tinkles

I want this. No, seriously. I want it NOW!!!

I thought they strut.

Re: Teabags

Return of the anthropomorphic food. This is not something to celebrate.

Re: Webrella

Beautiful!

Re: Hippie Shower

Love this madly. And if Woot does reject (better not!), you MUST print elsewhere!

Re: Too much rain

Man, I am too attracted to this one. I keep peaking at it!

I love cacti, love your line work, love the facial expression, and extremely love your use of color!

Geez, no kidding. It's full of win!

Re: Sidewalk Surfin

I had a little extra time, so I threw another design together this afternoon.

Re: Hippie Shower

Great palette. You really tamed the red by using the perfect amount of complimentary shades. This is really successful in the color balance.

Good job and good luck in the derby. I don't know how the bewbalage will work out with Woot standards, but either way, it's a really good design for the risky red background. :D

Re: Rain Dance

This MIGHT make up for the Goatsucker not making the fog...

zachizzo wrote:Matthew Patel?!

Ha! He is far too white. Besides, do you see any mystical powers at work? ;)

I agree! We all should be dancing in the rain and not moping in a bus stop.

Re: sparkling

This is cute - I think would've worked better with snowflakes as the theme. I keep seeing the donut as trying to catch the sprinkles in his mouth.

Re: Webrella

Is the only difference the small image? It looks like it... Oh well, I voted for both so delete which ever and you still have my vote.

Re: Watching The Rain

Nice first entry! The cat reminds me of something... Old Transformers? I dunno, but I'm betting we see more from you, and there'll be a theme where this style just kills.

This is our first Shirt Woot Derby. We hope you like our Wet Dog shirt. We are sure most of you with a canine companion can relate to our take on the rainy day theme.

We hope to produce more shirts for future Derbies. Thanks for viewing and your votes!

Cheers!

Lol, OK - I'll help. Now just 8982... I think it may be the slenderness of the frog. But I for one love it.

Not my favorite thing I've ever done as it was kinda rushed. Grad school, yall. Poor little dude keeps gettin' thwacked with giant rain drops.

Peaceeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Great artwork as always, and a really good concept, but I wish there was a little more to show that the rat's actually surfing in the gutter. Kinda hard to tell.

Re: Wet Dog

Great style - and nice first sub. Best of luck.

love the huge design.

Re: Check The Forecast!

I wish there was more to show she was flying when she melted, as you mentioned in the draft thread.

Re: It Pours

It is funny, but it's been done - and been rejected. I don't think this will get past copyright.

Re: Go Big or Go Home

you need more votes!

Love your coloring! amazing work!
