A+ as always Chris. I love both your designs this week sir. The mood you set with this one is some of your most effective yet.

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

holycrap, Chris, this is awesome! You just never cease to amaze. I'm hopeful and confident this will print.

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

I hope I'm not the only one that's reminded of Rapture...but that makes it all the better.

Are you sure you don't mean inspired by Waterworld, undoubtedly the greatest post-apocalyptic movie of our time?

Nope, me too. It almost looks like one of those posters that'd be up down there... I love Bioshock!

Did you see Waterworld?!

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Wonderful job on the city and atmosphere. You are so great with the use of color and tones!

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

I may not be getting whatever specific reference inspired this, but I'm getting my own vibe. The colors combined with the crisp lines.... Yeah. Just - Yeah.

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

And just BTW I think you and Drakxx are tied for most tees in my closet. Here's your chance to pull ahead!

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Wow..I love every bit of this! Plus, I'm a sucker for ocean-related shirts..This is a really good design and idea, though. Definitely got my vote! Good luck! (I want one!)

Or river..whatever, it's still water :P

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Fantastic design. The directional pull of the layout is great with nice color highlights, selection, and ratio with the grayscale. Good attention to detail with the complimentary elements. Nice treatment of the buildings in the back and the texture you applied to them to help recede back into space. Fun design/concept/execution. I don't think there's even a nitpicky problem about tangents. Whoo!

Good luck in the derby!
I'm quickly becoming enamored by your art style. (And I've been lurking for a short while now.)

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Love it! I scuba dive...I have to have this!

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

I glad you are in the fog!, your color choice, style and your themes always impress me!

+1

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Grats for getting in the fog! Hope you stay there!

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Thanks everyone for all the great comments! I'm glad I was able to finish this one (and glad I had the whole week to do it otherwise I probably couldn't have).
As always, thanks for voting!

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Very awesome!

excellent design. hopefully we see it printed by the weekend.

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Awesome work !

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

I can't believe this just got ousted from the fog! IMHO, one of the best designs this derby.

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Pull up a chair and have a seat in the front row with your pals CrescentDebris, Drakxxx and TGentry. We're just watching the show, scarfing down some chips & dip. We've got everything from water and coke to vodka and gasoline. What can I get you?

Pass me a rum and coke.

Though I can't complain as I still have one in the show.

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

Yess! This made it back into the fog in time! :D

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

I hope you resubmit this sometime - it's fantastic!

HOW DID THIS NOT GET MADE INTO A SHIRT

Re: City Without Words: Jumped Into A River...

This should be resubmitted (if they allow it) for this week's derby (154 - Cities). I'm sure it'd go far... this was awesome.
