Lovely work! +1

Re: Rowdy's Roadkill BBQ

There actually exists a Randy's Roadkill BBQ. And while he doesnt use the "from your grille to ours" slogan, the Roadkill Cafe does.

It takes some nitpicking to claim this is an imaginary restaurant. Just saying.

Re: Fuego de la Muerte (New Text)

Cool art and much better text! :^)

Re: Big Smokey's Medieval BBQ

This is a revamp of an older submission I did. It is definitely different in color and overall composition. 6 colors on cranberry - a very tasty color.

Sorry about the image. I followed their directions and it looks horrible. I resubmitted. Not sure if that's allowed or not. The other one looks better

Re: The Flame

Great illustration, and perfect font choice. I may buy my first ever red shirt!

Keeping it simple this week. Who needs puppy chow when you can have puppy chowder?

Is it just me or does this puppy look more like a koala?

Re: Fuego de la Muerte (New Text)

This is great! Of all the shirts so far, this one feels like it could be an actual restaurant.

Re: Wine & Spirits

I really like this though I don't really see a restaurant...

Especially when the can looks like it has acne.

hahah! maybe when Fang gets a Food Network show, he'll write a cookbook.

I like this shirt. it matches the theme, is wearable by anyone, and has a good joke.

Re: Late Night Snack

Haha... Every city has at least one of these joints.

If you were from Texas, this would be an armadillo...and I'd snap it up in a minute.

I remember this! I'm glad you resubmitted it for this derby. Dragons are natural chefs

Re: Hand-made Food Cafe

There are so many great entries. You guys are talented. Congratulations on your fantastic entries. They are all so clever.

lol those are sesame seeds

Re: Food Chain Cafe

Who knew unicorns were carnivorous? I'd always suspected there was a reason they had the sharp horn; now the truth comes out. Quibble: the dragon should be sleeping, b/c I'd heard the saying as 'Never bother a sleeping dragon...'

Re: Noah's Sandwiches

it looks nice and I like it a lot, but it just seems a bit desaturated. the colors just don't "pop" for me. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but just an observation

Re: Fuego de la Muerte

Now this are the halftones.

you know sometimes we do get dillos way up here in Nebraska! Very rare, but they have been spotted... most likely stow aways on a big rig.

I had so many different options for many of the elements. It was so hard to pick! Thanks for the feedback.

Re: Noah's Sandwiches

What color shirt is this? And does it use the woot template?

I agree with others that the washed-out effect detracts from the design and I'd prefer that it wasn't as washed out, but overall, it's a nice design and I'd hate to see it Rejectionated next week, losing all its votes, for shirt color/template use.

I love the apron idea!

Re: IF ...THEN... JAVA!

I like the concept but think it would work better with:

if (sleep < 4hrs) {
Java cup image
}

But its hard to use code in a design effectively ^^.

Re: Chip Off the Old Block

LOL - Raisin' Hell!

Navy is ok. A lighter (even a little) color (not green or white) would be better.

This would have looked great in a number of ink/tee color combinations. I liked the way it popped white on navy without being on a black tee. It's so hard to choose tee colors because somebody always dislikes the color you choose. I hope everyone likes this combination and as always, huge thanks for the votes and support.

Re: Library Diner

Firefrogh, I really like this and I deeply appreciate the reference to books/libraries - GMV for that alone (although there's plenty of other things that I like about it!). However, I feel like the white tagline over the light blue arrow is a little difficult to read - they kinda blend together, so I had to concentrate to parse the text. I hate to make critical comments once entries have opened, but I fear the difficulty reading the text will have a negative impact on votes and/or sales; I wonder if it might stand out more if the arrow were a darker blue?

It sure is! I chose zzz because it was shorter and it seemed funnier.

I agree there are many ways to achieve this joke, but I ran this by reddit first to see if they thought it was funny, and they did/do so far, so I just went ahead and submitted.

Your post actually made me click through to find out the artist's handle. Ha!

sorry! I meant to put zzz instead of sleep (my brain switched)! It's a nice design, ^^. I suppose it's just my like of curly brackets.

Re: Byte bistro

I would so eat here!

That's Randy's not Rowdy's. Totally different Icon too.

autsey wrote:I remember this! I'm glad you resubmitted it for this derby. Dragons are natural chefs

Thanks. Yeah, it seemed perfectly suited, and a good exercise in redesigning an idea. I think this version is much better suited to a shirt. I'm glad you like it.

Haha glad to know zzz worked. Thank you for the kind words. I truly love those curly brackets too, wonderful shapes they are

I figured I would get a comment like this, but since its a fairly well known joke i'm using there were bound to be similar shirts out there.
