Thanks, Viridian! I'm usually terrible at drawing women. I tried to get this one right.

Hey buddy, CD and I have something similar in the works that I've been drawing up since yesterday. No zombies though. I wanted to just give a heads up so there are no hard feelings.

You piece looks great by the way!

No worries! This is a pretty literal interpretation of the theme, so I'm not surprised that you came up with something similar. I actually thought about you guys while I was drawing it.

My little brother is as red as they come. I sympathize with your cause.

This looks awesome. I was too chicken to try submitting something with a person on it, but you did it beautifully.

Hahaha, silly me, my comment pre-derby was just me misreading the derby description about spring...

None the less, glad you found a name! It looks great.

very clever, how is this not pop-culture?

There's a discussion in the derby topic thread about that. It's explained pretty well.

ok. thx. That was all added after I read the pre-derby thread.

Sorry Rads, I love Mucha too.

I guess I understand the definition of pop-culture somewhat better now, according to j5, copyrights. I don't see any infringement here. Just sayin', when I see a design like this, even as cool as it is, I say, "Wow, somebody really digs that Walking Dead show.(and all the rest of the genre: Day of the Dead, Night of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Mucha of the Dead)"

@anemality:
Thanks Anemality! I almost didn't make this because I don't draw women very well. I didn't get to sleep thursday, but I got it done. I slept for like 15 hours last night- it was great

@ladykatzuya: Thanks!

@fofmock: I was kind of confused for a bit. Thanks for the suggestions, anyway!

@fofmock: Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks.

@citizencoyote:
Glad you like it! I wanted a pretty woman on a shirt, but I also wanted a shirt the dudes out there, so zombies.

@piwerx:
t'sall good. A perfectly valid question.

@orabbit:
Thanks for clearing that up.

@tlwwoot: I hope you get to where it!

@:Spiritgreen:
Thanks spirit! I couldn't help but think of The Dr talking about his "Fightin hand" after reading your comment. British people are funny.

@brinemcallister:
Thanks! It looks better big.

@Wirdou:
That would be cool! I've learned not to make too many assumptions (I'm really good at losing, not so good at winning). We'll see.

@lucky1988:
Thanks Lucky! I like your velociraptor! The archeologists are mistaken- they didn't have feathers. Just stylish boas.

Wow, utterly and complete gorgeous! This is the only shirt I've seen in this derby that I would buy. I'm not an Art Nouveau fan, but I love steampunk and I think you've meshed the two together beautifully! Congratulations!

Truly awesome. You captured the art nouveau theme beautifully while still having the fun of the zombies included.

I would be down with that, but I'm not sure that woot allows that. Perhaps with a woot watermark or something...
I'm just not sure what is appropriate/legal

Wow, what an exquisite drawing! Artists here have such a handle on this style, I'm amazed. I love how carefree she is, great stuff.

Re: Mort-vivant

I already said this in the pre-derby thread, but you really nailed the style with this (for instance, the hair - the way you drew the ends and the way you lightened the hair... so great!) - amazing job.

Vote!

Hey, something I just noticed: is it me or is the cigarette holder not actually in her mouth? Seems to be off to the side.
