eskimokiss on Aug 29 '06

very different. very cool

Luke... on Aug 29 '06

nice style mixture...the cast shadows tie the mixed style of head/body together.

(matthijs) on Aug 29 '06

sorry to be a cliché commenter, but looooose the text.

staffell on Aug 29 '06

very strange indeed

ghostsintheradio on Aug 29 '06

!!!luv it

nonolarson on Aug 29 '06

Fresh! lose the text as said before...

bananaphone on Aug 29 '06

ooo yay. Make the text a little smaller but don't lose it. I hate text nazis.

Gringz on Aug 29 '06

nice! 5

I like the words, and I understand the choice of font, but the design is stronger without the font as it is, both in placement and in style.

Keep the text, and the font. It reminds me of a Peter Rabbit book :) $5

sonmi on Aug 29 '06

thank you for all your comments/suggestions so far!

the text/font was indeed chosen to make it look like it was out of a book :)

lemonalle on Aug 29 '06

Awesome!

I_heart_ducks on Aug 29 '06

I like the angle, and the text.

funbackinsin on Aug 29 '06

The text totally makes the shirt. Maybe on a different color tee, though?

Jo$h on Aug 29 '06

this is sooo cool. keep the text. 5$

chisafer on Aug 29 '06

FUCK YES!

kypade on Aug 29 '06

5buy, best shirt ever. or something like that.

Quag on Aug 29 '06

Haha very interesting.

ShortyGotGaaame on Aug 29 '06

Freakin great! Just take out the text!

$5

realslimnatey on Aug 30 '06

ah ha! i didnt notice this new sub until you posted a blog, i should pay more attention to your sneaky ways...

i carnt spel on Aug 30 '06

different...

it's pretty sweet although i think it looks better without the text... but the text adds an element of Tarantino cool...

it's a conundrum:)

ayoungboy on Aug 30 '06

you don't really need the dropcapped T. otherwise, the text is totally fine and really ties up the design (both in concept and in aesthetic quality) nicely.

but I don't dig the colour splashes. they sort of detract.

but honestly speaking, this is one of my favorite submissions ever.

$5$5$5$5

mostsuspicious on Aug 30 '06

This is fabulous. $5

ohyoustealher on Aug 30 '06

I'll be another to say keep the text, just shrink it a little. A little reading never hurt anyone... well ok I've gotten papercuts... point is I like it

nanahachi on Aug 30 '06

nice design! I'm torn about the text. i like the content, but am not sure about it's presence or placement. great job.

theworldinyour_eyes on Aug 30 '06

$5 WITH THE TEXT, but without the green/blue things in the background.

yeohgh on Aug 30 '06

love it, nice colour!!!! $5

peacock77 on Aug 30 '06

Very original design. I dig the text. I like the contrast between pointillist head designs and pop cartoony bodies. Nice job!

phones on Aug 30 '06

sonmi on Aug 30 '06

thank you! and the varying suggestions are intriguing.

cuteheart1977 on Aug 30 '06

Totally radical...
Have to weigh in on the text issue. Sorry.

I totally understand why you chose it, and it does add a vintage storybook feel.

However the graphic is so creepy powerful, and is a total more elegant reiteration of the text. They are very obviously eyeing each other suspiciously. What if the text said something else?

C20Percent on Aug 30 '06

I think the text works. But either way I totally dig this shirt. Very unique. $5

~Cygnus~ on Aug 31 '06

I like it the more I look at it.
DON'T lose the text under any circumstances. I think it just adds to the feeling the shirt has, this mix between fairy tale and thriller.
$5 as it is.

tingmoo on Aug 31 '06

i absolutely love this!!
the text is perfect, i love that it looks like a storybook image. i would definitely buy this!!!

FringedGinger on Aug 31 '06

OH MY GOD!!! this is the most amazing thing i've ever seen. i know i've said that before, but this one trumps EVERYTHING ELSE. please, for the love of GOD threadles, you must print this.

jett on Sep 01 '06

this is so cool.

mezo on Sep 01 '06

This seems to be a slight ateration of your usual style...WHICH I ADORE. Really sweet perspective and marriage of slick vector with rough raster.

The text is fine, but lacks something. I think if you had the "T" as negative space, in a box with vines and stuff coming out...that might work best and better anchor the "T". That technique is also found in old books so it'd make sense.

Still....5

Xme3 on Sep 01 '06

very cool

ashtray1 on Sep 01 '06

i would wear this and i personally think the shirts better with the text.

sonmi on Sep 01 '06

thank you every one for the nice words!

mezo! that's a great idea. i can definitely see the text reworked with that type of ornamental style.

whootie on Sep 01 '06

the text is what makes this brilliant. DO NOT GET RID OF IT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES WHATSOEVER (i even used caps - that is a rarity which means that i feel very strongly on this issue). this is absolutely fantastic. $5$5$5. if it does not get printed, i might have to die.

marykelly on Sep 01 '06

this is awesome! i REALLY like the text.

cheerios91 on Sep 01 '06

SO PERFECT!

5$

Brzi on Sep 02 '06

you dont have to get rid of the text, just change the font
imho this one is not following the design lines
different font and you got yourself a 5

emmu on Sep 02 '06

awesome awesome awesome $5

pickledbib on Sep 02 '06

love the vintage feel... great

mstruk on Sep 02 '06

very cool! 5

KittyCate on Sep 03 '06

What are those little things on the backs of their heads? Otherwise, $4.

LeftoverSherbert on Sep 03 '06

i love the rasterbation.

Asawaki on Sep 03 '06

this is nifty :) i love the dotted printness

doesnt a tshirt website use those badgers on their product pics? or am i crazy. i think its the strawberry one.

singlewordedpoem on Sep 04 '06
