I really like his "Come on you fuckers!" expression. Apologies for the swearing.

Personally I think this one is WAY better than the Tom Burn's one. Kind of reminds me of the Eclipse! one

Tom Burns design was pointed out to me while I had this up in critiques. I was not aware of Toms design before I started working on this design. I put a lot of hard work and time into this design and am proud of the finished product. I respect Tom as a great designer and would not rip off any of his work or any other designer for that matter. Although both designs are inspired by the same adage, I believe they are going in very different directions.

Thanks for your comments!

Maybe this is just me, but I had no idea he was a snowball until I saw the title (I thought he was the moon, so I was way off). A couple of tiny snowflakes around the dude would help out other confused people (if they exist, this could just be me because I am way, way tired right now).

Cartooner, this is a completely different concept regarding the same million year old phrase "not a snowball's chance in hell." The only thing similiar of the two designs is that. Tom Burns's design (which i love and own) has to do with the snowball about to die and be obliterated by the devil's heat with the funniest shit-eating happy grin i've ever seen, hence the irony of the piece. OOH_OOH's take is all about the snowball overcoming its enemies and triumphing over the old phrase, sorta Lord of the Rings style. Love this and would also add this to my collection alongside the Tom Burns design. 4$

OOH_OOH I think it looks great and the extra high lights and halftone really look awesome.

I only pointed out the tom burn design so you would be prepair for compairasons. I think yours stands alone on its own merit!

good job!

Thanks FA!

Edword...I am very glad that you made me aware of Toms design. As fast as submissions go up here on Threadless (not to mention the hundreds of other shirt sites), it's hard to imagine that there are any new ideas or concepts left to be tackled. When I have an idea for a design, I try to research the intrawebs to figure out whether or not "it's been done". Toms design never came up I guess because there was no mention of snowball or hell in the title.

This design is DIFFERENT than the other one. No one holds rights to the phrase "snowballs chance in hell"... this design is BETTER.

That is brillian $4 only reason it's not 5 is that the color scheme might be too glaring for constant wearing of the shirt

At first glance I thought it was a golf ball!

Lazara on Aug 07 '07
I thought golf too! and red lizards? ha maybe I'm dim, but I don't think so ;)

I do like it, now that I "get" it. I would make him smoother though, because otherwise it looks like he has dimples, hence the golf ball similarity.

ya i totally agree that this shirt is in a complete different direction then tom's
your snowball is kicking ass
tom's is slowly melting with a grin on his face
not that i didnt like his as well
good job--but the snowball should be smooth, moon and golf ball look other wise
great work

it tires me of the people that call out others for copying when they are common ideas.. these aren't new ideas... the snowball chance idea has been around for a while now...

I think the snowball looks a little golf ball-like. I agree with mjoo about putting something subtle in there just to make it clear.

actually he looks a bit like a golfball, but this is so well done.

i dunno if anyone ripped off anyone else, but that tom guy's snowball looks optimistic yet he doesn't look like he's gonna make it, giving that design an overall sheepish feel.

in this one the snowball is powerful, he came, he saw, he conquered. oh yeah.
