Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

ahuhu@ exercise in futility
even when you make childlike coloring book designs they are great.

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

For some reason I like this; I can't put my finger on why, I just do. Got my vote.

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Hilarious! But factually inaccurate. Rainbows come from leprechauns puking. I have a sketch of this, actually. Now if only a Binge Drinking derby theme would come along, I could bust it out.

Clown vomit, actually.

I also think I've seen one on Threadless where rainbows come from unicorns farting...

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Heh. This made me giggle. And Mothra has always rocked my socks. Kudos, jimiyo.

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Jimiyo, I'm glad you're exercising some futility with the rest of us wooters. This design is interesting, mainly because it's far removed from what we normally see from you. What's the inspiration? I can see some early Japaneses print style here, which would explain why I don't dig the colors that much. I am excited to see unicorns farting in Jimiyo style.

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Oggling my goat?, jimi! i love, love, love LOVE this!!!!!! the caterpillar is hysterical!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i so hope this fogs

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

The look of this is great great! Cute and funny and cool. I'd wear one. Will buy if it prints. GMV

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Wow Jimi... not your usual awesomness.. but def has cute factor

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Looks like some lesser entrants are probably gonna take you over in this (sad but true), but this is probably my favorite entry this derby, soooo, let's say, oh goshdarn, I dunno, 6 months or so down the line, if this were to become available, could you please let a brotha know? Thanks in advance, your BFF, CarpoMarx.

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

ah well... its cool. the ones winning are actually pretty quality. better than what i remember last year. and this one frankly took me less than an hour to make so... i dont expect to win 1000 for an hours worth of work. it was more fun. trying to make cute faces is moderately interesting. :D

ill try to put up my non winning woot shirts somehwere.. zazzle, cafe press whatever, if i ever get around to it. id like to wear a basement cat myself so...

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

I am a very swell person indeed! I don't tithe though.

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Awesome! Go, go Godzilla! gmv!

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

jimi, will you PLEASE put this on tee fury? pretty please! i have to have this!

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Awesome shirt! Sorry it's not fogging. Weird and frustrating, huh?

naw its cool. :D

its a decent but weak concept. art is just plain. i notice that concept/insta-funny is still king but eye candy is also now a popular contender.

^^ Ah, but woot eye-candy is like Dave Matthews Band... skilled with instruments, but unable to make anything cohesive with them

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

The main problem I have with this shirt is that I don't watch Sci Fi movies, so I didn't know who Mothra is . I of course know about Godzilla, but I did not realize that this is Baby Godzilla. He looks less like the grown version than the baby muppets look like theirs. jmo

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

Definitely GMV

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

this is the only shirt I really like this week :'(

Re: Gonna Be Big in Japan

I love everything about this other than the shirt color, but still GMV because the idea and the toons are great
