Re: From the Ashes

Re: I Walk the Line.......MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Well executed _and_ an in-your-face Cash reference?

Voted!

Something much brighter to give the the full effect. I understand the name of the piece and why it's dark, but I saw you were possibly considering a resub... that's why I'm suggesting this.
It is really good though.

Thanks, Jaden. I think I'll try one with a lighter color tonight. I think you're right.

Thanks for the comments everbody.

Here's Lomky's winning post, btw:


Also you cant get inside the heart under the arm- that will just take you to the cloud. Technically.

So what do you want, Lomky?

Nothing wrong with having your head in the clouds...

Unless you want me to be specific, carte blanche :D

Re: Resist

Perfect for winter... it's a heater! Or maybe a lightbulb...

Re: fibonacci

Weeeeeeeeeee!

Re: Zebra

I like the concept and look a lot... took me a bit to see the continuous line.

Re: continuous cheese

We got the point last derby. Now you are being silly. However, if you want to keep this in everyone's mind, find a way to use your favorite theme with only one line and only one color.

Re: fibonacci

Please ignore the pixelly nature of the image. As usual, it was just a result of shrinking the image for submission.

Thanks for looking.

Re: A rose is a rose

I like this shirt.

While some might say that the design is too simple, I find it is clean and sellable, Good Work

a love note over two tin cans and a string

Re: Burnt Out

....oops. I looked again, and now I see a scary face in the bulb. I need to go do something productive, my brain must be broke. 555 (ha, ha, ha)

Re: From the Ashes

Would like it on a different color shirt a lot more. But good design.

Orange or yellow and you've got my vote.

Re: Resist

This shirt design is very simple but very cool. I'd buy one, and I already have too many shirts.

Re: Just for the record

This shirt is bad arse

Re: Complete the Circuit

Very cool... kinda looks like a board from an old NES game cartridge.

Re: continuous cheese

Submitting this every week is like playing the lottery with letters instead of numbers.

Re: rise again

Way to go, Art!... love it!

Re: The infinite Etch-A-Sketch

It's about time... was wondering if this was gonna get posted or not. Perfect idea for this derby... gmv

...that is, assuming it doesn't get rejected for copyright or something. Copyrights smoppyrights... it'll have my vote anyway.

Ju crazy, Mary!

I thought it was some kind of internet jargon or a spoof of "Arrgh, here be dragons" (the origins of which, I know not).

Re: Living for the city

Hah... cool! I was just getting ready to ask what in the world that thing was at the bottom of the skyline, then I saw the face/hat/sunglasses...

BootsBoots wrote:I think this is one of the best. It looks great.

Agreed, this one is not your typical fish you would see on woot.... and hey, atleast it's not a koi fish.

I gotta give it to you, this is beautiful. Perfect execution.

That's what I keep telling everyone, but no one will believe me!

Re: rise again

Oh this is gorgeous! Very impressive. My favorite so far.

Re: Kraken

you definitely got my vote on this one. Tentacular <3 !!!

Re: ...been hanging around this old town too long.

Uh oh.... looks like we got one that will be gaining some ground quickly.... this is just plain farking awesome... love me some mobius strip.

Re: ...been hanging around this old town too long.

Ever get the feeling you can't escape from the place that you live? That you want to go. Just go. Anywhere else. But you can't.

That feeling is because the town you live in is a giant mobius strip of eternal repetition. Drawn with one line. Yep, just like this one.

you are g@y, you g@y gaytard.

I'd just like to add that you probably should've spelled it "g@ytard" just for consistency

Jiimiyo, this is a great piece of work. I always figured that designers were allowed to use a reference. One of the comicbook greats, Alex Ross, has models that he uses for reference on almost all of his superdude(tte) portraits, so I figure it's kosher.

I'm glad you were able to find a derby where your linework would actually _get_ you votes, btw.

[insert comment about woot voters here]

Re: beeline

i need this shirt!

Re: Burnt Out

This is wicked awesome, Boots. Your work is always so intriguing. I find it amazing that one line can look so fantastic – phenomenal job on this, as per usual!

Re: Owl

Oh man I truly love owls, only I wish the colors could be reversed or just a little different. Like maybe a white, yellow or cream colored design on a navy shirt. Either way I absolutely love the artwork and even though I'm not a big fan of the baby blue, I'd really consider buying this one. Good luck yet again jimiyo!

Re: Noah's Ark

This is absolutely awesome!
