Hey Tshirt fans! You think you know what the best selling new shirts are going to be next monday? Here's your chance to prove yourself! Welcome to Threadpicks, where every week you make your picks and get points. We will keep track of top picks of the week month and hopefully the year.

The object here is to Pick the top 5 best selling shirts in order of how they sell. Points wil go as follows

6 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #1 pick
5 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #2 pick
4 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #3 pick
3 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #4 pick
2 points for putting the best selling shirt as your #5 pick
1 point if you put something that doesnt make it into the top 5

Also say you pick the best selling shirt as you #2 pick, the most points you can get for that will be 5 since you didnt pick it as the best, you can't get those points

No matter what you pick you will get points. Results will be posted the following Mondays. We are going to tally scores quarterly and the highest over all score and best average will each get to pick a shirt to print!

I probably won't get to all of them like those other show offs but Im giving it my best. I want an iPad to read comics











Last one is a collab with Ross
I know there is a way to do this but it is totally escaping me.

Im looking to automatically blend a bunch of lines so they conform to the shape around them. Basically take this




and have it filled in like this



i thought its something with blending, or maybe brushes? There has to be a few different ways to do this.

I also want to be able to play with the number of lines I can have in there if possible.
Hey dudes, check it out I'm curating an art show with good old Paul Octavious

Our site is now live


and follow us on twitter for updates!
If not (well atleast) Im subbing this right meow



I cant actually win the Loves but this still can get printed!
Trying something completely different, had this idea. one of those that just needed to be done.

Maybe something like "build your own" or "brick totem"

if you dudes have any thoughts about the design too id love to hear them. Keep in mind this is kinda the first color draft, i still need to go through and clean up little things.

Also I played around with making it look like there were actual legos in there too but it didnt really work too well

I just launched a new project on kickstarter. I am trying to gain funding so I can buy a laser cutting machine and create a new series of art. These things cost a ton of money so I'm going to need some help. Any amount you can donate helps. I have some cool rewards for backers, so check it out and help me spread the word!
