hehe he hates kites! =]
|
 |
why is it tyger? and not tiger?
|
 |
nonolarson on Jun 22 '07 Rather like this one.
|
 |
Tofurky, it's a poem.
|
 |
tofurky - that's the traditional spelling of tiger, using same spelling as William Blake used for the poem on which this is based
another $5 from me these rock |
 |
mj00 on Jun 22 '07 This is a cartoon. This is not a shirt. The fence makes things too boxy (why not trees instead?). Also, you are missing out on the coolest thing about kites- they fly away! Wouldn't this be much more interesting if some of the kites were trying to escape being burnt? The fact that everything in this is so static is really killing the concept.
|
 |
i like how tyger is holding the lit match with his paw. down with kites, up with static. :]
|
|
hahaha i love this!!!
its so random...great job |
|
i like the uni-brow..it cracks me up.
|
|
this is kinda cool... but if he was in a forest why is there a fence behind the cat??!!!
|
 |
I hope people can think abstractly enough to enjoy this and vote high, $5
|
 |
Very child's-rhyme like.
I like it :) |
|
love it
kites and tygers totally match |
|
the unibrow is most awesome!
|
 |
the unibrow adds the "WTF" factor to this shirt.
|
|
i love william blake so 5
|
|
5 from my pet tyger he hates kites too, but I don't let him near the matches...
|
 |
Blake is my favorite poet and painter!
|
 |
lol @ marvin
definite $5 |
 |
lizz on Jun 23 '07 They are trees! its just the style... and i was kind of going for a dead pan image hence no flying away kites or that kind of thing. Thanks for the comments so far :o)
|
 |
its kinda funny that most ppl dont know its a poem
anyway, i like it. but i agree w/ mjoo that the kites should try to fly, and also maybe trees instead of a fence? good job tho 5 |
|
I love the fact its a cartoon! This is my fave :)
|
 |
OH EM GEE I KNOW THAT POEM.
some dude made a really terrible song of it that my friend was listening to over and over again for like, a week straight to help him memorize the poem for a song. because all of this, i love this shirt. |
|
You guys it's not a fence, they're trees.
|
 |
Tonteau on Jun 23 '07 I love your work.
|
 |
Okay, that's pretty funny. Fix the trees-that-look-like-a-fence and I would rock the heck out of that shirt.
|
 |
hah-that's one great shirt! I love the expression on his face while he is setting fire to the kites.
|
|
its so random, i love it
|
 |
lolz what fearful symmetry indeed!
|
 |
fat pigeon on Jun 24 '07 I like this. Nice work.
|
 |
the expression is priceless
|
|
AHHHH
idk why but i love it. |
|
I know I've already said it but I have to say it again
I love this shirt so much Like the Clod loves the pebble I'd be happy even if nothing was altered |
|
I just looked at your past designs, I really like them! It's a shame they are not scoring higher, but don't give up!
|
|
Clearly superior stuff!!!!!! I'll be gutted if i cant get a t-shirt of this!
|
 |
Love Blake, and I love this shirt!! XD Very clever.
|
|
Very funny, I bet Leo Sayer likes it
|
|
I love it very much.
And you have very impressive work. |
|
um, sorry but it is ugly and it has a unibrow and it is napoleon dynamite reminiscent, which is old.
|
 |
Well I love the poem, not so much the style of the shirt...
|
 |
LOVE IT!
|
|
SO so so awesome! The best!!!
|
 |
The fact only a select group of people will get this is awesome, I love the angry kitty!!
|
|
This needs to get printed ASAP!
|
 |
What's that sound? Why, it's William Blake rolling over in his grave!
But seriously, this is actually kind of cute, as a cartoon. But I agree with mjoo; I just don't think it quite works on a shirt. Or not a shirt Threadless would sell. Maybe a shirt Hallmark would sell. (I don't mean that as an insult. I just mean, you need to know your market. I don't think the majority of Threadless buyers are your target demographic for this style.) |
 |
thats pretty halarious
|
 |
I think it should be on a dark shirt with dark trees in the background... and the fire would stand out and the tiger would be sort of lit up by the fire.. and some of the burning kites trying to fly away
that would be cool! but that's just my interpretation! I love that poem, by the way. maybe you could color this picture and it would be better? |
 |
AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!
perfect! don't change a thing! I love all the little details, like the angry monobrow and the "he hates kites" note. 5$ |
 |
agagadgdfgdfgdfg Simply the best. better then all the rest.
|
 |
love the look on the tyger's face :D Soooo pissed ;)
|
 |
oh i absolutely love it!!
|
 |
thats so cool
|
 |
So cute. The unibrow adds such a je ne sais quoi, too.
|
|
It really is all about the uni-brow.
I so don't want to like this shirt, but I do - 4. |
|
lizz on Jun 29 '07 yep i love those uni-brows. I always thought they were mono-brows though...what is the difference? thanks for the comments everyone i really appreciate the feedback :o)
|
|
I really reall really hope this gets printed.
|
|
just take off the "he hates kites" text and id buy it
|
|
Can't believe this scored so low
I reeally reeeeeeally wanted this DAMN |
|

how the crap did this get printed?!?!!????
i guess this gives hope for a print to anyone here |
|
i love it so much i just bought it, even though I'm broke!
|
|
Wicked, even if I do have to wait THREE WEEKS for it to turn up...
Still, WOO! |
 |
Lol, this shirt cracks me up.
|
 |
Seriously? This got printed. It's so stupid, something that honored the poem would have been much better instead of this I Can Has Cheez Burger crap.
|
 |
Joelnz on Apr 01 '08 Pssshhh. This is brilliant. you all need to get a job.
|
 |
If I get some money together, I am so getting this! My cat is named for the very same poem this references! (ie, my cat is named Tyger!)
|
 |
I'm wary of April Fools pranks today, but if this is legit, it's kinda growing on me.

tuffluffjimmy on Apr 01 '08 Seriously? This got printed. It's so stupid, something that honored the poem would have been much better instead of this I Can Has Cheez Burger crap. tuffluffblahblah needs to get some imagination before he criticises - this design ROX! :D |
|
lizz on Apr 02 '08 Woo! thanks for the comments. Its fun seeing such a mix of reactions to my design. The "...I Can Has Cheez Burger Crap.." comment made me laugh for ages, thanks! :oD
Its especially exciting because it scored so low I thought people must of hated it so its nice to hear the positive comments from people who like the tee. |
 |
It obvi got printed because of the supreme use of unibrow :)
|
|
dude this is NOT alumni material, i do not care which poem it was inspired from, the truth is i could have drawn this with my left foot --i start to question the quality of design that makes someone alumni, no bueno
|
 |
Torakamikaze on Apr 03 '08 ^you're not alumni material
|
|
lizz on Apr 03 '08 I'd quite like to see you're version of Tyger Tyger drawn with your left foot however...
|
|
lizz on Apr 03 '08 What does teh secks mean?
|
 |
hogboy on Apr 03 '08 To be honest I think the April Fools day prints were probably the strongest bunch collectively that Threadless have released for ages. They're just so interesting. Don't listen to the haters.
|
|
hogboy on Apr 03 '08 the sex
|
 |
secks= sex
|
|
lizz on Apr 03 '08 Ah i see. Ha. Thanks!
|
 |
wotto on Apr 03 '08 I am sorry that people had to make mean comments.
|
|
lizz on Apr 03 '08 Don't be sorry! its to be expected really, i didn't think my style was suited to threadless but i wanted to give it a go and people must like it for it to be picked! Lots of people have said nice things too. I find the hater comments kind of funny, some are so strange, its weird really...why bother saying anything at all? sigh! But that is the world we live in i suppose...
|
|
Tonteau on Apr 03 '08 I think negative comments are a sign you've done something right. If you please everyone you probably haven't really pushed the boat out, much. You did that with this and got printed despite the score and any negative comments. Q-dos!
|
|
lizz on Apr 03 '08 I hadn't thought of it like that! awesome! oh wow you did the viking bird tshirt...i love that!!
|
 |
who was the april fools's 'joke' on here?

this is a great concept well executed. "deadpan" is exactly right. obviously that's not everyone's sense of humor, but their loss.
"he hates kites" LOL. now, selfishly and maybe stupidly, i do wish it had been done on a black tshirt, with certain features (including the words and flames) in various colors of glow ink. (they do have multiple colors of glow now, right?) it would be tricky to do that and still retain all of the deadpan element, but i detest white tshirts so much that i won't wear them even when they carry designs this cool. i'll admire the heck out of it online though... anyway, great job. threadless needs to do a "Fools!" feature more often. Probably lots of great designs are getting overlooked out there... |

This is really fucking funny!!! Did you know that someone turned the tyger tyger poem into a song? I had to sing it in 6th grade.
Anyway great job! I especially love "he hates kites" |
