After looking through a few hours worth of NASA daily photos I found an interesting one of Saturn eclipsing the sun. It sparked the insiration I was looking for.

6 colors on black.

Glad you can finally post a description/make a comment!

Just whoa. Absolutely stunning. I really enjoy the unusual composition with the bar of sky. I would totally wear this shirt. The only thing is the telescope itself, it seems a little skewed. Or maybe the style is just a bit different. Either way I love it, awesome entry.

Re: Goodbye Earth

I have never seen you do a "dark" concept before... or at least a non-silly concept. This is great!

Re: The Race

I want THIS! Pluto as the water boy is Awesome! Nice one W.

Edit: I just noticed Uranus butt cheeks. Double Awesome!

Is it just a mistake or were you being very clever with Uranus?

Not really... but I guess if that's what you see, lol.

This is so great!

Re: The Race

Re: Astronomical Alchemy

Thank you!

I already see I made a mistake on the Shirt-Comp file (that won't show up in the shirt). After purposely saying yesterday "This is AstroNOMY, not AstroLOGY" a dozen times, I typed the wrong title on the file, itself.

Please forgive me, as I DO know the difference...

Re: The Race

Get thee into the fog! This is absolutely adorable! GMV.

Re: Where I Belong

2 colors on silver, I hope you like it!

Re: Anyone Out There?

Hello! This is a remake of one of my first derby entries. Thanks, everyone for the great advice and general awesomeness over the past year.

Here's the original entry:

Re: Einstein's Lens

Didn't need the explanation to know this is awesome.

Re: Anyone Out There?

This design touches me so...children are the same the universe over (and I love your celestial matter!).

Re: Dragon Nebula

Aww, I had almost the exact same idea! Im unable to do derby as Im out of town, -cries-. This is a great looking design, KDeuce! I looove it, +1!

I need this. Need it. I'm not even kidding. This better print or I will be eternally sad.

Re: Space Bunny

Inspired by the constellation Lepus

Re: Space Bunny

awesome work!

Re: Astronomical Alchemy

Fairly sure i saw an image almost identical to this last night when i was looking around google images at pictures of stars.

Looks nice though.

Re: across the mocha way

I love your illustration style and I think this has potential to be popular with the Woot audience so I'm going to have to pass you a vote.

Re: Black Hole In One

I love this expo!

Re: Storytelling

This looks really good!

Re: Storytelling

Most people don't realize how important the sky was to our ancient relatives. In addition to structuring their lives around the cycles of the sun and moon; they also built a culture around the stories developed from the identifiable star patterns in the sky. So many cultures used the same stars to tell their own personal stories. Our entry this week is an ode to that piece of cultural history.


Here's the larger version

I don't know, I think this should go to an editorial meeting.

Thank you.

The background is all random (from a mathematical filter), and the foreground was all done from scratch, using Illustrator brushes and tools. The Golden Mean commonly shows up in nature pics (there was a derby that had it as part of the theme last year, too, I believe) in various forms. And the alchemy symbols were all pulled from my college days, where I was a member of a Chemistry fraternity and delved into alchemical history...

Re: Goodbye Earth

Absolutely love this.

Ah ok, that makes sense. I wasn't accusing you or anything, just thought i'd seen the foreground part before somewhere!

Got my vote though, i would buy this for sure :D
