Re: BIRTHDAY WISH

Wow! Such an original, cute idea and really wonderful work! I don't usually buy cute designs for myself but I want to wear this one! Hope it prints - GMV

Re: Awkward schedule mixup

Thanks to those who voted before. Sorry, but the detail wasn't really working for me so I changed it an re-submitted.

Re: No, No, No... You're supposed to EAT them, Ted!

I really love your work! The creatures and the cats, they are great! GMV

Re: GOOSE EGG

Hmmm... I admit, I didn't expect to see such great submissions in this derby. Guess I will have to adjust my budget, I want this shirt! GMV

You're making the assumption that it's the blade itself that kills things rather than the whole being touched by Death or a tool used by Death sort of thing. My impression was that Death can't be seen by everything in the scene, else the owl would have veered anyway before he met his literally untimely end. Maybe I'm reading into it too much. *shrugs*

Re: Something I condensated

Thank you missmissa!

DianaSprinkle wrote:Shoot, I hate to suggest that you resub again... but the navy shirt blank is so dark that black ink tends to be hard to see on it. A small outline or highlight where the cloak's edges meet the navy shirt might be a good idea so that the characters bodies don't disappear.

Sorry I noticed it on the first version but it was already in the fog.

Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep it in mind for future submissions. Don't want to chance it with this one again since I already lost so many votes. T_T I had a hard time choosing the color...darker colors lost the cloak and lighter colors lost the patronus. Some of the in-between colors just plain didn't look right. But I do really appreciate the feedback. I'm still new at this, so I'm learning! Any advice helps.

Really like your designs, by the way. I was sad your turtle wax one didn't make it through. That was one of my favorites.

Thanks! This actually happened to my wife, and she suggested I design this shirt when she saw the topic. Her moment was really awkward because she has cystic fibrosis...and well there is no tactful way to describe what happened! Thanks again...

Re: Inky got the shaft

Awww poor Inky. The spare wheel in the Pinky and Blinky triangle (future parents of Yum-Yum).

Love the shapes here. :D

Re: BIRTHDAY WISH

Dang. It's so hard not to smile when I see your designs. Awesome!

I agree with this.
Slow death was also a bit of the same replication of style that seems to win consistently.

I'm sure it will do well anyhow.

Re: Overgrown Breakfast

Let's see if this ends up being PS shirt ... ummm, #10.

GMV.

Re: GOOSE EGG

I like this.

One comment; B/W with a spot of color on only the egg would be an interesting effect.

llamassassin wrote:And re-adding my description from the original submission...

You know that awkward moment when your patronus gets eaten...?

And, I repeat what I said earlier... It's like that time that Snape killed Dumbledore.

Re: It's not what it looks like

This is cute. Not really my style, but cute. I really like the attention to detail; the wallpaper background, like the setting is a Victorian mansion or something... and yes, it looks like they are stylized little hamburgers! Nice detail, and since I am quick to complain when I think Ramy hasn't made much effort, I want to be equally quick to appreciate this.

Re: what the spork

I didn't even click on the thumbnail my first time through the entries, for some reason it didn't catch my attention. As soon as I did click I had to chuckle - very funny, really well done!

Thirded.

Re: [url=http://shirt.woot.com/Derby/Entry.aspx?id=57780]PB

Is this one of those rasberrian relationships I've heard of?

Re: Didn't see you there

Make sure you resub a design where the thumbnail color matches the shirt color 'cause the Rejectionator will be all over this one!

Re: Conglomeration of Awkward

Then the background color of the thumbnail needs to be black.

Re: Fur Kills

I love it! And - I'll never question your designs again ^-^. This really came out great, I'm not a fan of white shirts but this one works! GMV

I wasn't too impressed until I saw the shape of the what's-it-called in his hand--then, I realized this is the bomb diggety.

Re: Fur Kills

You should teach a class on character drawing... really great stuff. Bravo!

jasneko wrote:Love that raccoon - so cute and great expression

Personally, I love the tearful expression on the bunny. What a perfect shirt!

Re: Crimefighter

haha! I enjoy it so much! +1

This shirt would have been really cute if you had given the soccer ball legs instead of arms. XD

Re: An awkward death

Aww. That is adorable. GMV

Re: Something I condensated

SCULLY: Mulder, toads just fell from the sky!
MULDER: I guess their parachutes didn't open.





Love the design! GMV

Earlysong wrote:So first of all, let me say that this shirt is not really "my style" in terms of humor. But I mean, if someone walks in on you having apparently murdered someone else, you would probably feel kinda awkward.

I respectfully disagree- the LAST emotion I'd feel is awkward.

Re: Awkward turtle loses the race

The big problem I have is the multiple entries- and none of them showing us anything different. Why not spend some time on ONE new and on-theme entry instead of submitting the same old tired and over-used "designs"? Just seems like intentional pandering...again.

Re: A really akward spot

Big cat + small balloon = fun
Small cat + big balloon = awkward

6 colors on slate.

Re: Death Caught with Cutie

Great Look! I love the comedic quality, but enjoyed that you could keep it funny.

Re: BIRTHDAY WISH

I knew this was a walmazan just from the thumbnail. Great design, color scheme, and hilarious idea. You rock!

Re: what the spork

Looks like someone's been forking around...

Re: Expecting Donuts

The only thing that would make this better is if it could actually be available on a maternity tee. I would totally wear this while sporting a bump.

So wait...if this were available on a maternity tee you would get pregnant in order to wear it? Now THAT'S commitment to art!

Re: But, it's just a game...

Sometimes it takes a whole new generation to overcome ancient rivalries. Just don't get caught, kiddos!

Re: Fur Kills

That raccoon's expression is perfect!

Re: [url=http://shirt.woot.com/Derby/Entry.aspx?id=57780]PB

I think this may be my favorite entry in this derby. I like the style and concept. The one thing I don't understand though, is why the strawberry jelly looks surprised. Is Strawberry just finding out that Grape likes her?

GMV, but I probably won't buy one because I think both Grape and Strawberry should look happy.

j5 wrote:Yes, granted but that's not where I was going.
What you have here is a big bite on Righto guy and a bit of slightly darker orange on the mouth of Lefty. It makes it difficult to tell what just happened unless you knew what the title or theme was, stare at it for a while, or finally ask the wearer what the shirt is about.
Now, had this been Lefty having a lick and getting caught in the act, it would be more evident.
Just some thoughts. Ignore at your leisure.

I knew where you were going. I just like giving you a hard time. ;)
