Cute idea, I can imagine kids really liking this one. The pack really pops off, great job with that.

Dont know why, but i like it. Nice work.

Yes.

heh, I know what you mean I'm always wondering if I chose the wrong thumbnail. Just to clarify - I don't think the red border was totally necessary, but you did pick the right part of the design - definitely attracted me!

The Yeti or Abominable Snowman is possibly a creature and an ape-like cryptid said to inhabit the Himalayan region of Nepal and Tibet. The names Yeti and Meh-Teh are commonly used by the people indigenous to the region,[1] and are part of their history and mythology. Stories of the Yeti first emerged as a facet of Western popular culture in the 19th century.

This makes absolutely no sense that a Yeti would be tossing penguins, as penguins are not part of the Himalayan region of Nepal or Tibet. A polar bear would fit here a lot better than a Yeti, and it also wouldn't reference a Video Game.

Re: One Flight Per Customer

That Yeti's got one hell of an arm! I hope he's throwing those Penguins into water

Re: Cheese Cracker!

I want 10 of these...GMV for definates. :D

That's the one I thought of. Though there's been a Cid in every game in the series.

I'm going to have to disagree with the face, something about it makes me feel queasy. Maybe he looks too much like a vampire?
But other than that, it is really good. As a da Vinci fan, I quite enjoy it.

Re: Simple math

I'm confused...

Re: Invisible Jettison

I've a fellow comic writer friend who is a HUGE Wonder-Woman fan. GMV, and in for one as an X-mas gift should this print.

Re: Leonardo Da Vinci's cat

It is "cute", but cute with a purpose. GMV, as I think my BF could pull this shirt off.

(And oh how I love to pull his shirt off! ;p)

Re: Unsafe Skies

Hehe I love it (and want it). The coloring geekily reminds me of Tails from Sonic the Hedgehog but is very cat!

Maybe it's an albino bigfoot ;o) or perhaps I don't care because as far as this shirt being factual I'm going with the fact that penguins wearing clothes are right out.

I was thinking the same thing... I love cats, but this one looks a tad frightening with that mouth and only the canine teeth! Maybe that's why I have more sympathy for the robin too:D

H-how, NO
just, no.

I agree...

Re: Your Time to Fly

Just out of curiosity, how many similar shirts must exist and be linked before a derby starts for someone to say "man, I should not submit this in hopes that woot will be inconsistent, because if they DO reject this, and all signs suggest they will, all I'll do is make people wonder why I submit an idea that has already been done to death"?

Re: 99 Luftballons

Shouldn't they be nuclear missiles instead of balloons?.

Paradox55 wrote:This is cute done right rg...just in case of rejection, please have a substitute with a replacement for the yeti waiting!

I was thinking the same thing. I love the design and I would hate to see it rejected, but I have to admit the first thing that came to mind was Yeti Sports. It would be a shame for such a great design go to waste, so a backup may be prudent.

Re: Cheese Cracker!

Poor sock mouse does not realize that he is on the Chinese firework express and there is only a BOOM in his future.

No moon for you sock mouse!

Re: Grand Battle of Flightless Birds

This is awesome, as usual.

Re: One Flight Per Customer

This would probably be rejected if the reference were to a more popular video game. Not sure if woot is going to reject this but this is a clear reference to the video game, whether or not it was intentional.

Re: Grand Battle of Flightless Birds

This is awesome. I'm not usually a fan of animal characters, but this is the exception.

Why should they?

rglee129 wrote:Hopefully the story here is pretty self-explanatory, even if it takes a second or two. Big thanks to all the folks in the forum who helped me work through the details.

Rglee, as I lok some more, from the thumbnail I noticed it looks like some lines/ fills are with a color pencil or china crayon or something like that... what program do you use to get that look? Or do you do your work partly with the real tools and scan it?

The style reaallly looks awesome. It's too bad one has to be so close up to really see it. Really great.

Re: One Flight Per Customer

want it!

Re: Fail

This is a top notch design. The layout is nice and the illustration tells a funny story. I can't wait to buy this one.

Re: The Joy of Flight... almost

i am glad you didn't put this on blue now because there are already 4 blues in the fog.

although, originally i thought baby blue for the sky, but what would it look like on navy for the night sky? hmmm....

Re: Stay Grounded

clever! and freakin' awesome.

Re: Master of the Earth and Sky

Great rendering. I"m not sure how I feel about the color of the shirt, but the design is pure class.

roselenasz wrote:The colors are great and of course, I remember that 80's song...!! ;D

GMV

Great, now I have the song in my head...too catchy!

I like the red and yellow combination here.

Re: Grand Battle of Flightless Birds

I always like your illustrations but the use of penguins is cliched. How many penguins are going to be submitted in this derby?

cmdixon2 wrote:Wow, after I saw Robbies penguin shirt I didn't think I would see another that I actually liked (especially as sick of penguins as I am), but I must admit, this is awesome. Great job on this one.

agreed penguins with weapons, fighting battles
on a shirt?
GMV!!

Re: Flying

This needs to fog.

flusi wrote:Why should they?

Because the title is a reference to a song about nuclear war.

Re: One Flight Per Customer

GMV, as I've a younger sister who is a rabid fan of anything featuring penguins. She loves the rest of the penguin woot shirts I've purchased for her (The Aviator, Imposter, and When Penguins Bribe Polar Bears), and I foresee myself picking up this design, Draxxx's, or both, by the end of the week as gifts for her.

Re: Your Time to Fly

this is a great design. gmv.

I'm new to this.. so.. woot can do back prints, just not double sided prints from the derby, right?

I really hope this prints.

Re: Flying

There is something very whimsical about this design and the purple was a brilliant color choice. Voted.

Re: I Hope Cid Made it Out Okay

This reminds me of castle in the sky.

I need to see the picture in detail.

Re: Cheese Cracker!

Nice! GMV!
