Re: Crosshatch Crane

Beautiful design!

Re: Creative Flow

awesome!

Re: Dreamcatcher

I love this shirt, I am just afraid of how it would look on me, a woman. Sort of seems like it might be a bullseye.

Not really sure how this comment formatting works yet.

Re: Industrial Tea

This is really well done. Do you get to choose your own design?

Re: Zebro

I love it! I saw this and my first thought was "dude, that's awesome." Very cool.

Re: Three Wolf Harmony

I'm still chuckling as I type this. Nice job!

I really like the changes you made. It looks awesome.

Re: Samurai riding quadriga with VELOCIRAPTORS!

This is striking and hilarious. The red on black actually comes across surprisingly well.

Re: Three Wolf Harmony

You should submit some daily designs.

Love iit.

Re: Forever Crossed

Dang, this is good.

Re: Know Your Nerds

To quote jessicar from another entry that doesn't follow the rules: Time for all the "let's see what I can post while the rejectionator is out" submissions.

Hey, you name it whatever you want to name it. The design is great and your cross-hatching looks awesome. I would love to have this shirt.

I've got this weird obsession with old keys.

If ever there was a time for ppens to win, it'd be now.

Well sit yourself down and get comfortable.
Since the first Revolving Door collaboration we have used a site called Stixy that enables everyone involved to upload images and files to a shared page, and then add comments like post-it notes.
- Initially a page was created to suggest and comment on possible design ideas.
- Anthropomorphic instruments was a favoured idea and Spiritgreen suggested a piano quartet, so he got the easiest one to draw as a form of reward.
- A new Stixy was created where we posted draft sketches, research, title ideas and shared our secret hopes and fears, much like you would in a private diary.
- As each person's first character sketch appeared it instilled panic in the rest as we were challenged to match the quality. It also helped to iron out issues and ensure the four parts worked together.
- The first finished character was actually completed an hour after the derby started and the last one came in about twelve hours later. We clearly need a project manager.
-Various mock-ups for different layouts went up and discussion occurred over colour choice and the all important title. Decisions were made based on general consensus. We had tears a couple of times and only one punch was thrown. This didn't really matter much because two of the team are in America, one in the UK and one in Australia.
- This is what we learned:
Boots learned how to tell the difference between a violin and a viola (You'll have to ask her)
Spiritgreen learned how to draw 'goofy enthusiasm and a lack of class'.
Tjost discovered that knowing how to draw blue furry puppets does not make it any easier to draw stringed instruments.
PixelPants learned that lack of sleep and being out of his designing depth can't diminish the experience of working on such a dream team.
Thanks for listening. Story time is now over.

Re: Nature Owl v2

I love this design. Count me in for a shirt or two.

At this level, it looks like a drawing that was passed through a filter, and woot has rejected several entries for that.

Naaaa, no filter here dude, just texture on a regular made illo. But your remark is funny since 90% of the subs should be rejected on this basis, since they are also regular line work, not true "cross hatching" technique. Taking note of that, I thought I'd give this illo a chance. CHeers and thx for commenting. V.

Wonder how long it will take until the Rejectionator gets ahold of this one...

Re: Depth of Cthulu (on navy)

I tried to address all of the concerns brought up on the original version, hope you guys like the outcome. I also wanted to say thanks to everyone who critiqued the original and helped me make the design better

Oh my stars and garters! Who are you and what have you done with Ramy?

Probably not on votes but it has a better chance of printing now than ever with the new selection rules.

I think the shirt is gorgeous, by the way.

I nominate chickens to be the next woot animal meme!!

Thank you so much - that was exactly the sort of story I hoped to hear. And I love the title! Kudos to you all!

An alpine ibex. An experiment in drawing the highlights. It's harder than I thought!

Thanks so much!

California Condor facts:

Adults stand 3 1/2 fett tal with a 10 foot wingspan!
They prefer to glide, and seek out high perches so they don't have to flap their wings.
They are a prominent part of Native American stories.
They are prone to lead poisoning from bullets due to their extremely strong stomach acid.
In 1987, there were only 22 California Condors left in the world. Thanks to a breeding program at the San Diego Zoo, there are now 400 birds, half of which are in the wild.

I am working on one that I am not going to finish in time for this contest.
This was VERY nicely done. I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Re: PANDALYMPICS

Really nice!

Re: Dischordia

The easiest one?! Well I never.

;p

I often vote but I don't often buy. I will actually buy this shirt if it is printed.

That would so please my daughter.

Thanks for looking.
