Re: Master of the Earth and Sky

The colour combination is delicious. I'm really enjoying your work as of late.

Polar Bear - Far Northern Hemisphere
Pneguin - Southern Hemisphere.

Yeti = Imaginary

Nice to know. One of the comics that I color is called "Battlefields", it's all WWII stories. One story there was a lot of pages with p-40s, the other had a bunch of Typhoons. They are all very similar, but really cool looking planes. I'd love for this to win.

Re: Mach-ers Marks

I had some type in mind originally but wasn't sure if it would be "incidental" so I left it on the drawing board. the only one set in stone was for a fighter jet squadron called "the com-bats", and it was the bat faced one there on the left side.

made up little badges and things. this is what i doodle for fun.

Re: Stay Grounded

This is really adorable..but..I want to vote for it but don't know how? Woot is confusing x_x;

Re: Open Sky

It looks like the planes are holding hands.

Re: Your Time to Fly

Not much i like this week so you get one of my 3 votes.

rglee129 wrote:I see your point- shirts should win on their own merit, not because they're alluding to a video game. But are people voting for this design because it's a video game reference or because of the imagery itself? It certainly originated without any kind of video game reference, so I guess it's hard for me to imagine it being perceived as one.

I, for one, voted for it strictly for the imagery. I've never seen the video game in question; I have never even heard of it until now.

What got my vote was the third-in-line penguin, the one with the colander on his head, peering impatiently past the penguin ahead of him to see how much longer until it's his turn. Love it -- that really makes the deign for me.

As for the yeti, to me he is just a large hurling thing, the specifics of which are inconsequential. I'd have voted for it whether the flinging was done by the yeti, a polar bear, a catapult, or the robot from your "My Favorite Program" shirt (which I love).

Re: Invisible Jettison

haha! love it! make me laugh!

Re: Unsafe Skies

hahaha....nice one!

Re: One Flight Per Customer

The only thing I wish is that the thrown penguin was a bit closer so that it was larger and more detailed so it would stand out more. The shirt would make a lot more immediate sense, I think.

But the point may be to make people figure out what is going on so who knows.

Re: Leonardo Da Vinci's cat

Nice idea and excellent execution!

It's what I first thought of, but they should be different enough in concept. I'm not really a fan of pop culture shirts in general, however. Probably because I never get the joke. :/

not exactly that one, but thats pretty much the same thing. the one i saw was just a white silhouette on black.

also, does woot have some kind of language filter that changes certain words automatically? cause i know i didnt write "cancellation" in my previous post -.-

Re: Master of the Earth and Sky

This illustration is BEEAUUTIFFUUL.

Re: First Flight

cool concept, but too cutesy for me to wear.
wouldve been better if you "badassed" it up a bit, and by doing so added some more detail and shadowing etc. to the design.

Ouch, that's harsh, Bass.
(See, it's funny because I have different taste in music. I'm sooo hilarious.)

I'm a sucker for cats, and this is using kitties in a fun and different way... Nice job!

Re: Leonardo Da Vinci's cat

This is one of those rare designs that I just laugh at seeing it and then continue to laugh each time I look at it and for that I really hope it wins.

Re: Flight of the Ostrich

Great idea!

That's really impressive. I'd totally buy one of these.

Re: Weapons Upgrade

I hope this flies right to the top of the fog...

Sachmoe - any chance of seeing cowgirl riding the rocket rejiggered and resubmitted? I've loved that one for a long time now...

edit:

I think part of the problem as well is that the silver really blends in with the blue which may be making the blue patches seem larger.

I see what your saying. Overall I think the blue shirt shading came out neat, but if this one goes the distance, I'll get some more color behind the kiwis to bring them out more. Thanks as always sir.

Keep up the good work. Maybe this can be retribution for your kiwi balloonist which really was amazingly executed.

THERE'S SOMETHING ON THE WING!

My thought, too. Had there been a bullet hole in the glass, I would have voted for the reference...

If you have made at least one purchase from woot, there is a little button above the picture that says "I'd want one." Click it to vote. You have to be logged in to see it.

please recall, however, that I am NOT the rejectionator. I think it's fine because I reason things through, and because my life isn't nothing but videogames. Woot's rejections are often mysterious and inscrutable examples of "huh?"

Re: The new guy

this one's really great. love the color palette. nice work!

Re: Weapons Upgrade

great work on that propeller!

Re: Flying

This is a really joyful, happiness-inducing design. It makes me smile just to look at it.

Re: Grand Battle of Flightless Birds

This is hilariously badass. Great artwork. Good luck.

Re: Stay Grounded

As someone who takes great joy in pushing my falsetto into comedic ranges, I love this.

yes it does. if you see something weird in a post, you can hit the reply button and see what the person really typed.

Re: Flying

100th vote. Beautiful shirt

Yep, there's an automatic word filter that changes naughty words. For example, here's Carlin's infamous "Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television":

Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966)
Piss
fire Rocket Number 9
Gypsy
goatroper
Cambot
pick-up sticks

Re: Master of the Earth and Sky

WOW nice job!! The T-rex's face looks incredible!

Re: Leonardo Da Vinci's cat

That cat looks so damn happy. Of course, much of that joy must be coming from how it's tormenting that poor robin, but then that's how cats roll.

Great work.

Re: One Flight Per Customer

o_O That's really sad. Especially that the penguins haven't realized that they're going to land really hard. GMV

LonChaney wrote:This is pretty neat.

I don't get what this is, but it looks pretty cool. I like version 2 better though. That one got my vote.

Re: Flying Pucker

what the heck is this thing?
