Re: Polo Bear v2

I love the simplistic feel of this. And how effective it is in being funny. The placement makes it amazing! Love your sense of humor.

Oops, meant to say it could be titled Ralph Lauren Polo Bear... since the thumbnail doesn't show the picture.

Another 'would so vote if the text were monotone' person here.

So you're willing to become personally affronted by a fluffy bunny for $1000........maybe you should look at your own signature line btw for a clue on not taking things too personally

narwhals aren't ugly!

Re: Desperate Measures

The colors you chose and how crisp this looks make me want that ice cream bar real bad.
Also, even though this is 'cute' you haven't left out an actual message. It's cute yet aware commentary.

Re: No, Mother, it's just the Northern Lights.

I can't believe I'm the only one that got this, but nice Simpsons reference! Anyone care for some steamed hams?

thank you julipuli!
I wish others felt the same.

AdderXYU wrote:Yknow, I just realized:

I was so concentrating on the fact that Ramy has zero creativity that I totally neglected to notice that this is PROBABLY LESS ON THEME THAN EVEN MOST RAMY TEES ARE.

"I love some snowy place somewhere" is not the theme

It's an arctic hair...stop being butthurt because his things are repetitive and sell.

Re: Don't even ask

you know honestly though ramyb...you should just stop entering here make your own site and just base a shirt every week off woot entries...you would make more money and people would stop complaining about your entries always taking up spots. It's painfully obvious that you're designs are always going to sell. It's at the point where it's not so much contest anymore.

Re: Don't even ask

I have read this entire thread. I gotta tell you guys... I'm tired. All that bull just exausted me. Yes he likes cute animals and he does them a lot but can you really blame him for doing what he likes especially if it sells?

Besides until I see a shirt worse than that "Hello Polar Bear" daily piece of $#!% I won't be baggin on any of these designs. I couldn't believe shirt.woot tried to sell that crap.

i'm so happy to see another jewelwing entry and the collab is sweet. i would buy this one even if it had the labeled animals and the names!

That's what I first thought when I saw it. It doesn't help that kdeuce has been caught lifting from stock vectors before.

MULTIKILL!!

I'm sitting in the airport and I just burst out laughing as I read your comment. Thank you for embarrassing me. =]

This deserves to be in the fog, it's the only shirt I would buy this week without hesitation! Quite well done, I hope to see more animal themed work from the artist.

You summed it up for me, you big palooka, you!

Seriously. Every week there are any number of designs Id love to wear on a shirt, yet these cutesy animals with little button eyes win every week. I dont understand who wants to wear this crap, but - judging by these contests - apparently they are out there. Or is everyone just buying shirts for their children? If thats the case, I am much less angry. Id totally dress a 5 year old in any of these designs, and at $9/shirt its pretty reasonable for children's clothing I think.

agreed. vote, people! I want this shirt!

Re: Sixty Six Degrees North

The detail on all the antlers, horns, wings, and tails, as well as the stances of each animal, are beautiful renderings. The more I look, the more I appreciate it. Way to go, Spiritgreen. Amazing!

LOLOL! YES!

Or, come to my house, we have rats. :D



(loved 'Kenya', so I did this based on it, haah!)

Ah, the joys of peer pressure.

Enjoy!

Re: I Triple Dog Dare You

LOL, I had this exact idea only with bunnies! I wasn't able to draw it though as my day job has been so busy. ;_; Most excellent!!

Re: dont wake me up unless you want to be eaten

Technically, polar bears do not hibernate.
Though really, this entire derby is anything but technical.

Re: Plunge

I think this shirt really embodies the spirit of this derby more than any other. Very artistic and very wearable on a shirt. +1

Except if Ramy started his own shop he'd have to worry about production, distribution, all that jazz.

With woot he just doodles some bunnies and gets paid a thousand dollars put 2 dollars per shirt sold after day 1.

Plus I doubt he'd even go the red bubble route... I doubt anybody would pay 18-20 dollars for one of his shirts.

Re: Sixty Six Degrees North

I can really appreciate all of the research you must have put into this to get all of these arctic critters put together.
I also really dig the circular layout and the limited use of your text. It really works for me. +1

Re: Hallowed Howl

Umm Huskies don't live in the arctic dude, cause that thing you have there is no wolf.

Such as this entry for the phobia derby that got rejected?

Re: Curiosity

Very nicely done, the thing that bothers me though is that the aurora cuts out so sharply on the one side. I know you're restricted by the design area, but it would be better to either move it over a little or fade it out earlier so that the design doesn't look boxed in.

Re: North For The Winter.

Appreciate the support, y'all.

Re: Our turn

The thumbnail was enough to make me want this! +1

Re: Plunge

Very well done.

manikx66 wrote:well i have photoshop my biggest issue is i suck at drawing with a mouse in photoshop and dont really have the money for a tablet. Will make due for now with what i have though

Have you tried using the pen tool? I sketch my designs or paper, scan them, and then use the pen tool to draw my lines. It takes a little practice to get used to, but works better than a mouse for me.

I agree completely! Haha! That's brilliant!

Re: We have narwhals!

I'd actually like this design a lot more if it was JUST the narwhal, without the socks slogan.
