Really odd placement, i don't hate it though. Sure, take a vote.

What's the element of the bottom left? Coral?

I'm a bit confused if this is supposed to be above or below the ocean (although that may be the idea. ^_^ )

I really like the squid and balloon, but the blob on the bottom bothers me. What is it?

The absurdity of a hot-air balloon under water (or for that matter, a squid in the air) would make this - but... I don't know. I can't decide if the coral is unnecessary and just the squid/baloon should stay, or someing more is needed to really balance the air/water justaposition... A cloud, to add to that faint half-tone of air? Or maybe a darker tee color would server the same purpose, to make the 'air' pop.

Oooo - I think Paige is on to something. I like the idea of a very faint hint of a cloud. (I guess I like the idea of the squid flying through the air better.) I think this color works well with the balloon and squid colors though.

Re: Count Toto


I like that there is still a difference in the other entry with the same two stories being collaborated. The colors look great in this shirt. +1

I think there are only 5 with a lot of small halftones:

Yellow, Green, Dark Green, Pink, Purple

oh ok the basket threw me off looks kinda grey to me. and there's black in the rope for the ballon so i thought 7, but it might be a really small halftone. cant tell.

Think I would have liked it better if the creature WAS the balloon....tentacles as the ropes holding the basket....would also cut down on colors as PP said.

pretty cool, I just wish there was more of an underwater vibe, maybe some bubbles?

If this got printed under any circumstances I would pay good money for it.
