The Madness Within.

Re: The Madness Within

I dig it!

Re: The Madness Within

Crazy mad indeed. I love the effect you have going on here, Boots. Awesome.

Re: The Madness Within

WHERE IS MY BASEL STICKER?!

Re: The Madness Within

This is the coolest, most interesting thing you've ever done.

Re: The Madness Within

Ms. Arthur - thanks that means a lot coming from you.

Marz - thanks!

Copo - No text, fool! It's on blue, what more do you want?

Jewel - Oh noes. Then surely it will never win!
P.S. Bought your current GJ shirt the other day. So cute.

Re: The Madness Within

I love this, the textures are great, and I have trouble figuring out what is going on here, which is perfect.

Re: The Madness Within

It's mesmerising. I look forward to your designs every week BootsBoots, and I couldn't tell this was yours before checking out the the full image.

It feels like album artwork. Edgey, cool and slightly unsettling.

Re: The Madness Within

Crazy awesome! very nice job again Boots!

Re: The Madness Within

I will need to see this printed before I buy it, but seriously, it simply must win.

Honestly, I'm not sure how it would print either, since I've never done a design made up halftones like this, but it's got colors that I like so even if it ended up a horrible mess, at least it would be a aesthetically pleasing mess. And I will have learned my lesson.

Thanks everyone.

Re: The Madness Within

Whoa, this is a new side of Boots that I've never seen before. Crazy! But I guess crazy is kinda the point, isn't it? Good luck!

Re: The Madness Within

truly epic, Jamie.

your best work yet!

Re: The Madness Within

Nice Work Boots. GMV

Re: The Madness Within

By far the most original in this derby.

Re: The Madness Within

Madem Boots, you never sees to amaze me with your wymsical style. But this one blew my mind! There is so much going on in this, and yet looks so simple and balanced.

Honestly,I don't know why, but this is my favorite of your designs since "The choice was not hard"

Re: The Madness Within

Love. Madness within from the waffleiron.

Re: The Madness Within

I have no idea what I'm looking at, but I love it.

It's so elegant...all the fashionistas will be wearing it this summer.

This is crazy good. Do it up boots.

Re: The Madness Within

Great stuff boots. For some reason it gives me a "Naked Lunch" vibe. You know, the guy with a typewriter for a head. Anyways, I was crazy enough BEFORE you people made all these crazy drawings, and I don't appreciate being driven even further down the hole. Thanks for that.

Re: The Madness Within

Wow, Boots has gone off her nut! Cool!

If it turns out splotchy, that would only add to the point of the shirt, no?

Re: The Madness Within

Looks like something David Cronenberg might dream up. That's pretty madass. Best of luck.

THAT's it. I knew there was something tickling the back of my mind...

Re: The Madness Within

this needs more votes! I'm usually a fan of your stuff, but this is amazing!

Re: The Madness Within

Do you have a link to bigger artwork?

Also, in case you didn't already see, I sent you a PM.

I could--but I'm baffled as to how.

*look at thumbnail*

"Holy cow, is that Boots?"

*click*

"Holy cow, that is Boots!"

The only thing I can think of that might've tipped me off is the reflections on the screens. I mean, that's the only thing that says BootsBoots to my conscious mind.

Clearly, this is reaching me on some level I can't purposely access. Therefore, I must vote for it.

Re: The Madness Within

It is like a cartoon version of the work of Chet Zar...he does amazingly dark twisted art.

Re: The Madness Within

Haha, it works. Nice job yo.

Re: The Madness Within

Looks like something you'd see on a Bonnaroo poster. I love it, i'm in for one if it wins.

Something about the color scheme hinted that it was boots to me, but yeah, this is a dramatic departure from her usually easily recognizable style. A truly stunning design, one that'd make for one hell of a conversation starter of a shirt.

DANG! out of the fog again?!!

if this doesn't print, I'm gonna stomp some kittens

Trying to obtain the cute-lover vote with threats to hurt kittens. Nice strategy.

Thanks for all the comments, everyone. Even though this totally wont print, I really feel good that it's appreciated.

Re: The Madness Within

Wow.

There seems to be a remarkably large number of kittens dying, or in danger of dying because of this derby.

That said- this is amazingly wonderful

You had a design like this on your website if I recall. Loved it there and I still love it here.

Re: The Madness Within

I like how it's so symmetrical.

Re: The Madness Within

Someone please explain to me why this isn't in the fog?

Re: The Madness Within

Ought to be in the fog...come on now people...

Re: The Madness Within

Reminds me of when all the junk was pouring out of the river spirit in Spirited Away.

Or, more precisely, because this is such great art, it literally makes a bad t-shirt. I would love to have a print of this, but I wouldn't wear it in my chest.

Funnily enough, I think it would make a good t-shirt.
