If it is, well, I'm not sorry. I really respect the artists here and don't think they should get torn apart after working so hard on their designs.

There are artists here that take the theme and rules seriously. They put out great original artwork each week. Then there are those who plagiarize, or use the same design elements week after week. It gets old. But people pat them on the back and tell them how awesome they are, how they rock. They should be called out every week on their BS. I don't think it's a spill-over from last week. I think people are over these washed up artists who have no new original ideas, just living on their past derby glory.

thanku very much, We are happy you like it. :D

This design is not, in my opinion, an example of plagiarism. It's parody, which is allowed.

Artists have different styles and so do audiences. What one person likes another may not. That's just how it is. Disliking a style is not a reason to go around and belittle what someone has worked hard on.

Re: CTHULHU go - go dancer

This is a gorgeous shirt. I just don't see how this fits the propaganda theme. Maybe if you changed the wording?

This is a good time to plug the effort to renovate Tesla's last lab, so that it can be a science museum, and so more people can learn about Tesla. http://www.teslasciencecenter.org/

This is a great shirt, but Tesla had a huge argument in 1884 with Edison over money (He improved Edison's system and added controls) and they later had a huge rivalry over DC vs AC power. In '82, Edison was the star and Tesla was an unknown, but I love the irony of putting Tesla in front. (Bizarre wording used to avoid woot filters for the word F*I*R*S*T.)

Re: join technoscience rebellion

Hmmm, should I make that website?

Re: Rex the Riveter

This is awesome, obvian! Excellent color choices, wonderful pose, and sweet lineart.
I especially love the gag of the tiny arms still attached.

Re: METHOD NOW!

Nailed it!

Re: who is sciencing the scientists?

Good slogan. I'm a little bothered by the lack of a question mark, though.

kevlar51 wrote:There's a subtle line between life and death ... help us blur it!

That's another good line. Put it on a shirt.

beware1984 wrote:Thanks for the critique I appreciate it. I think If I got rid of the text though there would be too much negative space under the fist.

Yeah, you'd have to move the text up a bit and cut off some at the bottom of the design.

Who did I belittle?

Re: Slits of Uncertainty

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but I would like this entry a lot if it didn't have the words on it, just the picture of the slit experiment

Re: United for Science v.2

I like this version!

tomspc wrote:I agree, not crazy about the shirt color

Would have liked it on a darker blue but their choice of color was dark royal, very dark navy, and this blue. The Navy just off black.

Also trying to keep to the theme. This my take on it with 60's style and color scheme in faded pastels.

Thanks for looking.

Also if they print it they're going to change it for maximum selling. Nothing final here.

Re: Tou Decide. (distressed)

Submitted a distressed version... which do ya'll like better?

flattopfrank wrote:This is the best design in this derby. It fits perfectly with the WW2 propaganda style !!! (you nailed it ) But i think it would work better if you changed the bottom tag line to "and become something else"

Thanks!! I choose the tag line because it fits one of my favorite chemistry jokes.
"If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate."
When mixing a solid and liquid, the precipitate is the solids that do not become a part of the liquid/solution.
