she's so freakin cute. something off about the balloon. I think the outline of the balloon should be the same thickness as the outline of the figure. Love this though, seriously. On the bluey-green.

I've been seeing a trend of deer horms as of late. Not just here but all around. I think it would work a lot better without the balloon.

ballon can be removed if it comes to that.

here is the version without the balloon, the message is not the same, but the design is still spiffy. http://www.flickr.com/photos/plaid-duckie/630777846/

No baloon, just the boy, centered on chest or bottom and to the side. The character is great!

plaid-duckie on Jun 26 '07
Thank you Gareth1. Question, should i submit the design of the character without the balloon?

how about a cloud on the string, like a balloon? - even with the 'tie' bit at the bottom (now people will say clouds are overdone too :( )

I like it a lot minus the exclamation mark, it's tacky

I say just remove the words and keep the baloon. The words make it litteral instead of symbolic. 4.

Cute! I dont think it needs the written text tho. Too hard to read anyway. 4

Yeah, lose the text. Otherwise, it's wonderful.

It reminds of me a less cute version of the characters in the "Fishing" shirt

No no NO. No more asian cute stuff. I'm done with it. Bye bye la.

I'd prefer this as 1-color, but I doubt many will agree with me. Anyway, at the size you have it on the photo, I like it. The size on the template is way to big.
P.S. If you do lose the balloon, you need to lose the fill on the being too, and place it center chest.

Hmm seems familiar like I've seen something like this in a design i scored a while back.

aww.. very cute. I love the colours and how the text in the balloon becomes a textural element.

Degazio, asian cute stuff?

i like it on natural and sagestone. the placement's better w/ the model than on the little shirts, too. not too big... i like the body texture too!

(: Neat. I don't care for the text, but I like the idea. Well. I don't know, maybe I'd like the text better without the exclamation point, like Miffsible said.

yes I like the version (including the color) on the model - thugh the bluish shade is cool too. The words are fine, but it can be done without them....though then it seems like you'd have to have something else in the balloon to even out the textures, maybe. They're right about the '!' though, you don't need it, and it does actually work better without it. I don't see any "Asian cute stuff" about it, if anything it reminds me of the childrens' book from way back when about the kid that went into the woods where the monsters roam...I forget the title - great book though. I'd totally buy :) -$5
