I so hope this wins. I keep getting thwarted in my attempts to acquire silly, cute cat shirts. Maybe this one will break the cycle.

rejection reason welcome the holidays? If the shirt was rejected for "similar shirt designs exist" it would be fine, but off topic? bs.

Re: I felt like destroying something beautiful




While it's beautifully rendered, I'm personally unsure if this in any way captures the true spirit and meaning behind the quote. To any casual observer, I don't think this will resemble anything other than a big butterfly on a shirt. While I can appreciate the craft that went into the design, for me, this one's connection to the derby theme is tenuous at best ...

I like this better. the lowest position for the dial has to be zero, or you can't turn the thing 'off' level wise.

(sorry, have run way too many mixing boards in my life.. of course many modern boards go from a large negative value up to zero.. but that blows the 'goes to 11' joke entirely, so we won't go there.

Or is it pictures too? Is there an internet debate somewhere that I've missed based on whether they show up in pictures? I'm thinking along the same line as the fast/slow zombie debates.



I believe Heart is right. Not 100% on that though, and it probably varies between storytellers. However, this is art. Dracuala use to hire me to paint oil portraits of him, and those portraits never faded after his image was captured

I'm not a writer but here's something for fun.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They cried! Oh they cried! They pleaded "But Draqs, we won't be able to see the 000000 details you have so masterfully detailed!" with faces long and sorrowful.

"It was Dabreeze!" he said in a forceful voice. "The Dabreeze is the one who cast these precious details into the shadows. He cares not to define these edges. But then again, he may lack the ability to define anything. Perhaps someone should buy him a dictionary." he said in a witty tone turning toward his wine glass with satisfaction as the crowd laughed. Right then, appearing out of nowhere like the very colors themselves was Dabreeze. "Listen not to these absurd accusations." he said.

"You! Get back in your dungeon slave!" Draqs commanded. "There are more entries to complete. More votes to be gotten. More reckons to be reckoned and MORE DEFINITIONS TO BE DEFINED!!" he yelled losing his cool and then quickly regaining composure. "But... seeing as you are here, please, stretch your legs, take a moment to speak."

Dabreeze told them what his plan had been. He showed them the very thing they were fighting against. And they loved it.

Draqs threw down his glass and leaped from his seat as they cried! They cried "We like it better without the black! We like it better without the black!"

"NO! Silence!" Draqs screamed. But it was too late. The crowd was no longer one sided. Now there were two equal and opposing forces chanting two opposing ideas.

Buuuut after some painful powerpoint presentations and some refreshments, Draqs and DaBreezed convinced everyone to work together for the greater good. So they all came together and they voted. They voted hard.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

One of my favorite movie quotes ever, from one of my favorite movies. This is my first ever derby entry, so I hope I did everything ok.

It's hard to tell, but I'm pretty sure it's a crushed dead beautiful butterfly. I think if you understand that it's been crushed, that the submission represents the quote fairly well. That being said, I wouldn't be able to extrapolate the reference to the movie from just the drawing alone.

Long story short, it's really nice! GMV!

Re: How do you like them apples?




From Good Will Hunting, its my first derby, I should've re-done the bounding box in illustrator to include the actual shirt. But the two apples, well, I think you can guess where they are positioned.

Its not the best illustrated for sure, but I thought it was a good concept and wanted to see how it would do.

If anyone has any design, drawing recommendations please criticize me til the sun goes down, I'm new with using illustrator as a program to actually draw. Usually I just revise the plans or sections I make in architectural programs :P

Thanks for looking

Wow, if this doesn't prove to the rejectionator that similar shirts exist, I don't know what will. Unbelievable.

Well, you need to submit a shirt comp, which shows how the design will appear on an actual shirt (links to the template for shirt comps are on the submission page) -- see other people's submissions for how to make the shirt comp look -- and the shirt color on your design detail needs to match the shirt color on the shirt (you have white for one drawing and grass for the other). BUT, if them apples appear on the shirt where I think they're going to appear on the shirt, that's probably not gonna fly here.

Re: I felt like destroying something beautiful




one of the things I appreciate most about your approach to the derbies, is that you never take the obvious or heavy-handed approach to the theme. Your designs are how they are intended to be: a complete re-interpretation, NOT a quote illustrated on a shirt.

Ah fair enough, wasn't sure what the boundaries were :P I don't think there's anyway for me to take it down, so I suppose it'll get rejected shortly :P

Well, thanks for letting me know what to fix in case I ever think of a really clever submission for a subsequent derby!

However, after reading the rules, it appears that I did not read them thoroughly enough and this pucker style re-interpretation may not be "reinterpretationed" enough.

Thank you all anyway and have a great weekend!



If you'd made them priests, it might have passed the rejectionator. Of course, it probably wouldn't get nearly as many votes.

Kudos for taking the rejection so well. Yeah, sometimes you get an idea and you just Have To Do It, and accept the consequences should they happen.

Cute idea! The hand placement around the cane is a little odd though, he's only holding it with his fingers.
