Robots do not have pilots strictly speaking.

If I were to ask you to describe what 'mecha' means, the first words out of your mouth would most likely be "giant robots". Thus, I think we're good here. Robot is an incredebly broad term, that spans from free ranging science fiction creations to machines programmed for a single task to mechanical arms used in surgery and controlled in real time from another room. If you want to get really technical, it's not clear from the design if she's riding or piloting the thing. All in all, I don't think there's really ground for contention here.

Thanks. I thought about that, but I didn't know how to balance them in size with the rest of the items.

timelessblur wrote:if only we could make sure you and Rotation were to get printed I would be VERY VERY happy.

I would agree, but if Robbie's robot get's printed (which I hope it does) and the wind up robot sees it's first print, then I'm going to potentially be out of some cash.

Regardless, I hope to see this print.

Re: Terran Final Defense System

Thanks for looking at our design. It's what happens after watching too much Eva, TTGL, and Gunbuster/Diebuster!

Bingo! And yes, those bears...something is up if you look that satisfied with your tp. @_@

paigeg - haha Thanks?

j5 - Honestly, I have no idea. I don't know Ramy at all and Ramy hasn't posted on this design as of yet at least. I hope Ramy knows this is in good fun.

Yep, Even a Roomba is a robot.

Nice Design, Bass!!!

this was not the next one I expect to slip out of the fog.

Re: To The Clouds

I am color deficient and can't tell if this design is on navy or asphalt. A little help? I love it but I really don't like asphalt tees :/

Re: Crush... Kill... Restore...

sorry chump, I really wanted this to print, there is just something appealing about the robot. Better luck next design.

Re: Stop the Melting!

I thought it was because of the shadowy robot. I still am not sure if it's part of the shirt design or just you being "artistic". I think you may find you get rejected again since the grayscale robot isn't part of the shirt design but seems to be part of the design - though I am not sure why.

i am c0nfus3d about what will and won't be part of the final shirt design if i vote. it's a nice graphic just not clearly represented.

Re: Mirai

Here is a larger image of this design, for those interested.

Thank you for your comments.

I think it's made clear by the t-shirt representation that there will be no shadowed robot.

That being said, I cringe at the orange parasol. It doesn't make any sense. White ice reflects more heat than orange...metal? I assume it's metal. Bah, too nerdy for this shirt.

Sorry !! bad link lets try again: Correct Link

I am now able to show a bigger picture for this shirt. It didn't help that I was out of town for the weekend, but if you like the shirt it will shoot to the top no matter how much time is left, right?
I do hope you enjoy this though.

STAFF: Fixed the link for you. You were very close, just missing the first [. I deleted your other two posts.

too nerdy? have you ever walked barefoot on a white sand beach? as a matter of practicality, shade is cooler than full sun. ice on a shaded sidewalk will melt more slowly than that in full sun. ever felt your white car hood after parking in the sun for the afternoon? you must confine yourself to your lab full-time - maybe you should get out more. a parasol is just the ticket to provide shade and give that poor robot a little relief from the sun. and, orange is a very nice counter to the grey/black/white color scheme.

Re: S.O.S resub

does this fit the rules this time? Or is there more that I need to fix?

Re: To The Clouds

Love this! Is there metallic ink, or no? Gold?

Re: Saving the world, one small step at a time

Is this on black or navy?

More designs like this one from you, please!

Re: Destroy All Invaders!

Hi guys! This is my first Derby... What do you think of it??

Re: Versus All

I'm not exactly sure why there are pirates and somehow that makes me like the shirt more...

Re: Let's Plant

The trees on the rooftops is my favorite part!

Re: Saving takes forever...

New, improved, and totally recolored! Now the world is safe... unless you're using a P.C.
XD

Thanks for stopping by!!

Re: The Smoking Raygun Resub

This is AWESOME!

Hehe. +1

paigeg wrote:Kudos on the execution and overall composition - that is ONE endangered office stool. But, I don't know how the silver ink is going to fare on a heather shirt. I suspect it will look pretty wonky. Still got time? Resub on another color. Id'd also say lose the silver ink, but that's JMO - I don't think anyone should be using it. It looks cheesy to me.

So I went ahead and took your advice. Thanks!! I think version 2.0 is muuuch better!

Checkitty check it!

Re: Saving takes forever...

A little closer look!

Re: Robot Loves Save the World

Thank you everyone! :D

Re: Terran Final Defense System

I opened the page, saw a giant robot with crossed arms and giant drills, and all I can think of afterward was "who the hell do you think I am?".
I want this shirt.

Re: Silver Children Breathe Hope

Wow, where do I begin? Not incidental text, not six spot colors, no shirt template...

Re: W.W.Z. Mechanized Military Infantry

it's a killer one , i mean the design ;-))

Re: Don't Look Back, I've Got You

i'm fan!

Re: The Big Gentleman

i love this one

Re: Alien Vs Robot RESUB 2

wow it is amazing

Re: Saving the world, one small step at a time

Anyone else notice that the shirt image doesn't match the design detail? The detail has a white line on the arm that extends past the linework, which is not seen on the shirt image.

Thank you, your three laws shirt is amazing. Great scifi reference.

Re: Stop the Melting!

That's super cute! Love the style!

Re: That's an awesome design! Hopefully it won't be rejected because of the copyright from the Gurren series. Terran Final Defense System

Re: Silver Children Breathe Hope

What this person means, is Woot has a lot of rules for Derby submissions that you need to follow. You canfind them here. Good luck!

Re: Terran Final Defense System

I'm not an anime fan, so I don't know the references. But I did do some quick checking up on Gurren Lagann, and this doesn't looki in danger of violating any copyrights.
I really like the attention to detail, the star-clustering, and especially the city lights on Earth. A little disappointed that the two sides of flames are mirrored - though it does look like to did make an effort to modify one side so they were directly mirror-imaged. Not my kind of thing, but nicely done.
