Re: The Rainguard

I really dislike the curved cutout, but I really dig the style.

Re: The Rainguard

The curve at the bottom bothers me (I'm more a fan of abstract/jaggedy bottoms that fade out) but everything else about this shirt is beautiful!

Re: The Rainguard

I'm with the others. Your style is so promising, from all the work I recall seeing of yours. this is simply lovely, but the shape/cut-off makes it a difficult "wear".

Re: The Rainguard

Beautiful color, texture, idea... but I will agree that the rounded bottom would hit unflatteringly on some folks. But it's not going to detract from my vote. Lovely.

Re: The Rainguard

I'm going to be the black sheep here and tell you that I love this design even with the rounded bottom.

Re: The Rainguard

Really nice. I guess I'm seeing it different because from a distance, it looks like a circle/globe with the umbrella being the top. The bottom doesn't bother me so much because of this.

Re: The Rainguard

The space needle looks great. Good choice of color splash.

I'll be in for one!

Re: The Rainguard

Beautiful work as always. :^)

Re: The Rainguard

I want this right now. Awesome. Granted, in Seattle, you're kind of weak if you use an umbrella, but this would be a good way to keep everyone dry and still cool. :-p

Re: The Rainguard

Great colors, great tee!

Re: The Rainguard

This is hands down my favorite entry in the derby. Your color choices are great, the textures are great and I like the subtle Art Nouveau line work on the space needle.

GMV+1

I would buy this shirt in a second if it wasn't for the curved bottom. With it, i'll have to think about it some.

Re: The Rainguard

I do see the globular feeling of the rounded bottom with the umbrella but I don’t think it really works to your advantage on this design. I agree that a fade-out bottom would give a more ethereal quality and reiterate the storm/rain at the top, making it more aesthetically pleasing. In other words, it would be way cooler with a jaggedy bottom 

Haha this is also true. I feel like this shirt does depict the Pacific NW rather well, but if you use an umbrella you basically are saying you are not from around there.

Re: The Rainguard

Great textures and style!

Re: The Rainguard

I LOVE THIS. I'm moving to Seattle/Bellevue at the end of the year and therefore need this shirt to print. And I *will* be one of those obvious outsiders proudly using an umbrella.

Also, I like the rounded bottom; reminds me of a raindrop.

Re: The Rainguard

Lovely. I'd be in for one, possibly two, I have a fellow damp friend who'd appreciate it=)
