Must say... I really love this. Spread the love, vote for this great design and rally for a print. I'm PINK with love for this shirt!

The Sub is in the running... vote and comment!






It is the FIRST drawing I did (mostly) with my new Wacom tablet. The process was super fun and I was able to make changes much easier. It was also a good example of the critique blog. Special thanks to everyone who helped me along the way.

Check out the progression "CIRCUS FREAK" Critique session.

So, I've been working with the design called circus freak... and I just can't decide on the colors that work best.

BUT - this happens to me all the time?

Is it just me? I didn't fail color theory or anything but sometimes I just can see the solution clearly.

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU'RE STUCK on Color LIKE THIS?

Suggestions please!

I'm not going to sleep until I get it right... ahhhh!

UPDATE:

I was surfing through the new subs last night and I saw a sub that was using the same concept that I had been working on. I was totally bummed, I know this happens but all the same I was hugely disappointed.


----original post------
I'm sure there are some of you who love them, some who hate them (speaking literally as well as on a tee -shirt) however... I had this idea over the holiday and tried to illustrate it.




What are you thoughts on guns... in general and on a tee... this tee...

Critique it here. Now in Version 4! THANKS TO THE SUGGESTIONS HERE and in the Critique!

Hey I just wanted to say that the Critique blog was HUGELY Helpful for my most recent sub... it came a long way with the help of other threadless users that keep after it and went above and beyond to help ME take it to the next level...

Special thanks to bortwein, robsoul, Againstbound... and all the others that stopped by and give me a boost. oh, and of course I'd like to thank god... and my mom.

Where it Started...


Work in progress...

I'm really excited, the FLY SPI has been well received. Thanks to the critique blog, it's got my largest number of votes as of yet!

I'm Super stoked about that! THANKS.

GREAT!
Nudity, Monkeys throwing Poo, dogs playing poker... seriously, this is art.
chuckle. Love it.

Enjoy

Anything cityscape right now... love it. I'm waiting for FREQUENCITY to arrive any minute and I also just ordered Stat City

Trendy? I dunno? it doesn't matter, I'm all about them right now. Any other obsessions out there? ummmm... t-shirt obsessions. ; )

It used to be cool, the image of Dean Martin, Cary Grant... smoking! However in the last several years it's become taboo - at least in the states.

The truth is, we've all either seen it, done it or been given it - the evil "stink-eye". More infamous with the crying baby in a restaurant - now the common smoker catches it all too frequently.

I think there is going to be a backlash, the rebels and 'cool' kids will bring it back in vogue. So the next time you see a smoker, don't give the stink-eye, wink or nod with acceptance like your hip to their game - you're in the 'in' crowd.

oh, by the way I'm not a smoker but I support them. We all want to look cool.

Should I delete the design from the critique or does it just stay there until the design is either accepted or denied? uhm?
I see that the submitted version is "Pending" right now as well. Maybe something went wrong? I would guess it should leave the critique Blog after I push it to Threadless for approval ... It's another first for me, your comments will be helpful. : ) Thanks!

I'm new so forgive me if this is obvious. I notice a lot of great tees that have been completed in the voting for several days, even months, and they have not printed. I've marked "watch" and I assume if that tee gets printed I'll be notified or something? But my bigger question is what is the time frame to either print or remove a Design? THANKS for any info on this.
