I like the cloud's expression, but i think the raindrops would work better if they had more of an angry expression than a scared one. And maybe some scars or something to make them look like soldiers (not that raindrops could have scars). I think that would be cool.

Re: pop that wheelie

Just to warn you, they have been rejecting shirts that are just a "livetrace" of a photo.

i agree.. this might look pretty cool if it were hand drawn.

Re: The First Cow Tipper

I don't want to come across as a "Cho Hater", but I just don't think this is as good as the votes indicate. It's better than anything I can do, that's for sure, but it's not as strong as his past work and the work of others in this Derby.

I think there are much better shirts than this one. I think, of the currently fogged entries, TGentry's is much more original and well done. I think the Pop and Lock is the most clever shirt this site has seen in a long time, and I really dig the Rocket Rodeo and Hellicopter Seed.

I see nothing that amazing about this shirt, and as such, I will make the statement that everyone seems to think is bunk; I believe the votes are because this is Cho, not because of the strength of the design.

I say that, not as a "Cho Hater", but rather because of it's rocketing up to the fog.

If this had a slow build over the course of a few days and then got fogged, I'd be fine with it, but the fact that this was posted at 5pm yesterday and was fogged in a mere 6 hours makes me call shenanigans. I don't think the same response would have occurred had anyone else posted this shirt.

Say what you will, that's my opinion.

The design is not THAT good to warrant such a strong fan response. Some of Cho's designs have been ( Cat Fu, Duck Hunt ), this one simply isn't.

Re: Motion Unhindered

nice choice of colors. Looks good

A simple version of the original.

Ohhh i thought my eyes were deceiving me when i saw this one so high up in the submissions sorted by date

Re: Army in my Pocket

Great job .. and congrats on the very fast rise to the top. You'll be hitting the fog in no time

Re: Fast Food

i'm not sure they will believe this one conveys motion. But good luck.

Re: Ninja awesome move of greatness

I love the movement of the ninja and the details.

unlike some of the other commenters, I *love* the faux-rice-paper behind the ninja, I think it looks great with the distressed touches. gmv, and I don't usually like ninjas.

Love the color scheme on this one... looks great with this design.
Hey did you do an orange shirt like you were saying you were going to?

Re: Burnin' Blubber!

Hahaha... this is a great design and i love the color scheme!!

Re: Herding Cats

oh noooo.. more cats.....
Great artwork as always.

even so, im a little disappointed. Ive come to expect more originality from a Cho shirt, as well as better execution, and quite frankly, the use of arrows is a cop out. this is mundane at best, and coming from cho, its a bit like a slap in the face. but i suppose a half assed cho shirt still beats out everything else.

Re: Peregrination - RESUB

Very nice. Looks great on Black shirt.

Re: Rocket Rodeo

great looking design.

Re: Blaze Far Away

Is this shirt color different than heather gray? (They said no heather gray this week, and I'm guessing because it is out of stock!)

Also, Woot will probably not print your shirt all the way to the edge

Actually, I like this one more than most of his work. Execution on all the shirts is of very high quality, it's just that . . most of the designs he makes overwhelm the tshirt. This might be my favorite cause there's more tshirt "white space" so to speak.

I LOVE this shirt. I would buy this the second it becomes available.

Re: Herding Cats

Re: Army in my Pocket

I love the concept of this shirt, but after seeing Cool Breeze (http://shirt.woot.com/friends.aspx?k=3806) printed, I don't think the black would show up well at all on the brown.

Great shirt, for sure! Unfortunately the black will not show up hardly at all on the brown tee. This design would have been tops for the tromp l'oeil derby as well!

Re: Perpetual Emotion

Oh man that's great. I love the facial expressions.

FYI, asphalt is not allowed this derby, heather is.

Re: paper motions

Thanks so much to all of you that voted! I really appreciate it.

Re: Marching by.

Odd... I don't think I would wear it.

Re: paper motions

I love the design but I think it would have looked better on black.

Re: The Occasional Stretch

I'm sick of Lincoln. But the concept is great.

Re: Fireflies

I really, really, really like this one. Which is too bad, b/c my picks don't usually make it. ^_^

Let's hope this one does! It's awesome! It feels very Soviet-era constructivist, but maybe that's just me.

thebrokenbox wrote:I love the design but I think it would have looked better on black.

Thanks! The brown is really dark already. Appreciate the comment, though!

The black is only an outline around the characters and there is so much more color to this shirt than Cool Breeze, it will print fine. I love this shirt.

Re: paper motions

i love the movement in this @_@ and you chose the shirt color very well <3

Re: katasplosion

Oh my god XD i want this shirt! a katamari shirt that harms onlookers retinas, ftw XD! Lovely job =D good luck.
