"About my design"

about When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth

Hooray! A mighty thank you to Threadless for choosing this design, I think it's my favorite of my submissions, as well as the one I worked the hardest on.

It's been a while now so I don't rightly recall exactly how this particular concept came to mind, but being as big of a dinosaur nerd as I am I'm sure it had been floating around in some nebulous form for a while. Eventually I started sketching some of the figures in my Educational Psychology class last winter (there originally was going to be a Polacanthus as well) and finally got a submission put together. I don't think the "critique" section of the site was open then (or maybe it was, I'm not sure) or else I might have saved everyone the pain of being asked to vote on it twice, since this is actually the re-sub of my first attempt. :)

In any case, I hope you all enjoy it and thank you for all your votes and comments!

awesome! its a well deserved print!

on a sidenote: does your profile name have anything to do with the Beck song 'Thunderpeel'? Its one of my favorites!

Kudos man, this one was destined to emblazon many a torso. It will join my closet pantheon along with sexy pack!

What's with the medals in the upper left on the model shots? Where'd they come from?

thunderpeel on Jan 07 '08 at 11:53am

Thanks, guys!

SoulfumeInc: Yup, my username is a direct reference to said under-appreciated Beck song :)

as for the medals, they look like the Alumni Club medals to me

mapmaker on Jan 07 '08 at 12:10pm

You're right, they do look like Alumni Club medals! What are they doing on your shirt though? It's odd that the design graphic doesn't show them but the product shot does...

Awesome shirt, I've been eyeing this since I voted on it months ago.

Boo to Threadless for not releasing this in Kid sizes, though - kids & dinosaurs go together like peanut butter and...dinosaurs.

thunderpeel on Jan 07 '08 at 2:39pm

i had me a peanut butter and dinosaur sammich earlier today. it tasted like epicness.

mapmaker: i think they put the medals on for the product shot because many of the dinosaurs in the design are donning sporty medals themselves.

congrats brian! it's a great design.

mapmaker on Jan 07 '08 at 3:24pm

Ah, so the medals aren't actually part of the shirt. Gotcha, thanks.

thunderpeel on Jan 07 '08 at 3:33pm

You know, I want to get it, but I just don't know.

It looked awesome before, I just don't know what made me slightly change my mind.

I was all ready to get it, too.
