About my design
by stickymike   
Their day WILL come..and when it does..where will you be? You will be dead of course! With a cockroach sitting on your head, drinking the finest wines, and smoking the most expensive Cuban cigars, among other things.

Check out a higher resolution version here! http://www.sirmikeofmitchell.com/marvelous.jpg

Mike, posting a res image is not a good idea, it will end up on a tee in Thialand guaranteed.

Awesome work, love the skull and, ofcourse, Mr. Roach.

nyx, thats always something i consider, i think it could look really nice off center, but doing that in a sub, causes too many complaints..its always an option though

did the cockroaches force the cubans to make millions of miniature cigars before they died?

(I must add: the roach is reminiscent of the plankton from spongebob squarepants... just tossing that out there)

I like how unknowns are reamed for making "yet another" skull design but this guy is getting commended. Methinks there is some exclusivity going on here. I do happen to like it but I just find the whole thing a little suspect.

dude you should use some gold foil to accent his rich demeanor. :)

haha if only i thought about that earlier!

I never think about the foil stuff, its not really my style i guess

"I like how unknowns are reamed for making "yet another" skull design but this guy is getting commended. "

first of all, sticky mike has been missing. so we miss him.
second. there is an idea behind this skull.

so yeah, dectective. you nailed it. mike does good work, and that very very fishy.

Johnny was a tractor pull enthusiast. Since he was 7 he spent every waking moment watching tractor pulls on the telly, reading Tractor Pull Weekly, and staging his own tractor pulls with his Huffy. He loved it with all his heart. Johnny dreamed of the day he could be like his hero, Borgal Von Hoppakahn, 8 time World Tractor Pull Champion. The dream finally started to feel like reality when Johnny received his first tractor on his 9th birthday.

Day and night he rode, pulling everything in sight. Trashcans, puppies, his brother greg... nothing was out of the question when it came to this. One day, Johnny was walking past a closed down Sizzler when he noticed a flyer hanging on the lightpost. "Tractor Pull for 9 Year Olds! Be Like Borgal Von Hoppakahn!" This was it. Johnny knew this was his chance to finally live his dream.

So the big day came... surrounded by cheering desperate single parents, Johnny hopped on his tractor and pulled like he'd never pulled before. He pulled the haystacks. He pulled the bleachers. He pulled the sun just a little bit closer. The crowd was wild in excitement.

It was all over. Johnny was on top of the world. "3rd place goes to... Rico McLankanbak!" said the announcer, "2nd place goes to... Mablo Boogleflab!" he continued, "And 1st place, for the prize of $5 goes to... Stickymike!"

Johnny couldnt believe it... his dream was ruined. So he locked himself in his room watched nothing but 90s teen horror movies, never to be seen again.

impossiblejosh: I like how your first reason was that you missed him. Because that changes the design somehow, you're right. Gosh you schooled me. I recant my statement. Favoritism is definitely a reason for doling out high scores.
Kookaberry
Kookaberry on Jul 24 '07
stickymike: I'm not knocking your design at all. I happen to judge designs based on whether they are good or not, not whether the theme has been explored a lot at any one given time. I just feel sorry for the poor noobs that haven't been "missed" by people, know what I mean?
stickymike
   stickymike on Jul 24 '07
Kooka, I think josh was just trying to say that its not a skull design, just a design featuring a skull....or something like that...no worries..

I really like everything about your illustrations, I just really hate cockroaches. Living in the South for your college years will do that to a person.

I'm not personally going to buy it, but it deserves a good score anyway. ::thumbsup::
stickymike
   stickymike on Jul 25 '07
Ha! I hear that man, I lived in a warehouse in a not so good neighborhood in Chicago for my college years. I HATE cockroaches....

but something about a nice smoking jacket, top hat and a monocle that makes me forget all that...

because skulls never do well, no matter what else you do.

sure, you might find an exception, but 1000:1 that's the case

it's cool though, a pity.
mindtrance
mindtrance on Sep 11 '07
it's not just a skull it's a fucking roach man... if it was a roach... smoking a roach... perhaps using roachclips... and saying far out man, and eating a brownie... it might just work!
