Re: Orbital Hoopla

The sun having a little fun with gravitational forces. I almost called it "You know, for kids..." but had to resist the urge

Re: Orbital Hoopla

This is a great idea, the colors are really nice and the drawing is simple yet well executed. I expect this to rocket to the fog.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Shoop Shoop Hula Hoop!!!! This was the brand that added ballbearings to hula hoops so that they make noise.

I bet I could still win a hula hoop contest if I tried!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

love the colors! cute idea!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Mwahahahah, love it!

I rolled over laughing, it makes me a little sad too. This is a very fun and cool shirt. You've GMV, hope it prints.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Haaaa this is so cute! I like that you used blue for the orbital rings. It adds a lot of color in there. I would be more than pleased to have this!! +1

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Ye-ah, sweet design and the colors make it.

GMV!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Wow, sure is foggy up in here ^_~.

Awesome.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

aww...and Pluto was gone...

Re: Orbital Hoopla

I LOVE IT!!! Now I know for sure I need to get a hula hoop...to whittle my waist while I'm wearing the shirt, of course. Love the colors. Love the happiness of it all!

I'm pretty sure that only little kids in contemporary elementary science classes would complain about Pluto being there. The rest of us will just cling to our outdated beloved reality.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Clever idea! I like the angle of the orbits and the placement, it makes the planets really move.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

I haven't been feeling this derby so far... Finally found a shirt I can vote for! My son especially will be sad if it doesn't get printed. Another great idea!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Thanks for the support so far guys, I'm cooking up another design with Bass that I think will be really sweet if I can pull it off

"What if you tire before its done?"

Great shirt and movie reference. +1 for both.

really cute! love it!

Cyoooooot~

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Awesome! +1

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Laughing + like it.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

The art's nice and all, but I really can't see myself wearing it. I prefer wordless references, and unless I'm missing something this is pretty much just the sun hula-hooping the planets, end of story.

Who knows, I could be the only one. Congrats on fogging, though.

Nonononono, I agree with you copmpletely.

and Congrats

Re: Orbital Hoopla

This is a fantastic design!

I recently took up hooping (for fun and exercise!) and just today my friends and I were pretending to be planets, spinning 3 or 4 hoops at once.
Hopefully I can wear this shirt to my next hoop class!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Nice idea but I don't like the drawing style.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

You, sir, are a master of simplicity. Nice work!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Minor detail: but huge compliment. I love the stars: from far away, the way you did it does look like an actual starry night. *nice*

Re: Orbital Hoopla

I love this design!! It's cute and fun while being a little intellectual at the same time +1!

Re: Orbital Hoopla

sorry my vote for another shirt made this drop out of the fog. I'll go fix that and vote for this one too.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

Awww man. I was hoping to be able to purchase this one... -sad panda face- ;_;

Re: Orbital Hoopla

NOOOOOOOOO, I want this shirt!!!!! I can't believe it fell out of the fog :S GRRRR.

Re: Orbital Hoopla

is it possible to buy shirts even if they dont win?

Sometimes!

Woot's gonna do some honorable mentions sometime in the next two years. When those happen for this derby, they go into what's called a Double Take Derby, where they get another chance at life. And even if they don't win that, woot does a week (or two, i always prefer two) of editor's choices, and so that's like another 13 chances to print.

Plus the artist always can take it elsewhere once their period of waiting is up.
