It's such a shame. I love the ideals behind this site, but it's become a victim of its own success.

Agreed . . . my shirt.woot buying has slowed considerable. There just isn't enough variety anymore. How many Facebook joke shirts have been printed in the last few months?

I love the fact that it doesn't scream "hipster" until you look at the details (the dinosaur's mustache, the giraffe's extra scarf). And I LOVE that there's a llama* on it! Nice change from all the sheep shirts (even though I like some of those too).

* I guess it might be an alpaca? It'd be hard to tell them apart in this graphic style.

I actually considered both when I was making it if you can believe it... I intended it to be a llama though, because it seemed like they had longer necks. When I was looking at comparison photos it didn't look like there would be much to distinguish them in this case.

Requiring a rule like that would be prohibitively expensive for many artists, since the free program options like Gimp and Inkscape don't have a pantone swatch system built into them like the Adobe products do, as well as pantone color books not exactly being free. There's nothing wrong with the system the way it is, really.

Thanks for the nice comments! :D

I love you! But not in that stalker kind of way.

Maybe it's just me, but the CC on the polar bears shirt appears to be text.

Re: Ironic Bunny

so cute and clever, this will be another print for you amigo!

Re: OSTRICHIE TENENBAUM - RESUB

I wish someone more talented came up with this idea..

Totally captured Smith's dogmatic hipster charm...he makes the camel look good :D
Great work!

Re: Stay COOL with Coke or Pepsi

Funny, weird and cool. I like the fact that the chairs are just the shirt color, and you did a great job drawing them seated- it's hard to draw things sitting down and actually make it look like they're firmly seated in the chair.

GMV (even though it is a tiny bit of text)

Re: Gila Hipster

theremin for the win

love the clothes and his shades.

+1

If you dont have anything nice to say......

Re: Hipsterness

I think this is one of your best designs yet Jaden. You really bought your A game, and I think it would be a shame if this shirt didn't get printed. Best of luck to you, and the lovely Hipster Ness. I would wear it till to shreds then beg for reprints.

Re: So Meta

I need to spend my money to acquire this shirt.
Apparently I can't vote until I buy a shirt, yet this is the only shirt in the world that I want.
Someone needs to help me get this shirt.

A turtle with glasses AND AN iPOD! DON'T YOU COMPREHEND THE GENIUS?

elviswind wrote:I don't think "Couldn't Care Less" is very hipster . . . a hipster would be more "Completely Obsessed About Something That I Couldn't Care Less About" like riding fixed gear bicycles or some band no one's ever heard because they've only played at that bar that no one's ever been to.

This is more like an average apathetic teenager.

So basically this is a Care Bear version of his target demographic. Gotcha.

Re: Couldn't Care Less Bear

Reminds me of that episode of Adventure Time when those party bears were in the Monsters tummy

Re: Hipsterfly Gal

I'd vote for it if the butterfly had six legs.

Re: The Apple Core

marzipan', prt19657, squarerootofpi and bennydougs - thanks! ^____^


Say what you like about hipsters, the mix of vintage, mid-century and modern gives you some cool stuff. I really enjoyed drawing this, thanks for all the encouraging comments and support!

Wow, thanks for the heads up. Definitely holding back any votes I have in the future for this artist.

Re: big hipster

Thank you every body for your comments and votes.
This help me to try harder for the next derby.

Thanks again

Re: Neighborhood thrift store

This is really an awesome design. I will never be angry at a raccoon messing up my trash again!

Re: No Thanks...

The marble eater reminds me of Rowley from Diary of a Wimpy Kid. :D

Re: The Chase

I like it, very reminiscent of Pink Panther!

I wish this could print too... let us know if you are putting up somewhere else!

Re: Ironic Bunny

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Re: So Meta

Reminds me of the Che wearing a Che tee shirt my son has from the Onion.

ElanorRigby wrote:I agree that the bear looks more blind than uncaring...besides, sunglasses serve a useful purpose. Hipsters seem to wear glasses they don't actually need. The idea and general execution, however, are hilarious.

Any chance we could get a derby focused on the blind. That would be a great angle for a number reasons.

Re: off deck dubstep

A little trivia for you:

Deck: "cool" in hipster slang
Fin: "un-cool" in hipster slang
Dubstep: type of techno dance music that is currently popular with hipsters. Fun to work out to, imo, but sounds like video games on crack.

But since I know about it now, it's probably no longer en vogue.

Re: Hipster Nation: DIY or DIE!

love it! great idea!
for a pony fan you're pretty good!
