empiricist on Sep 21 '07 the text is hideous, the illustration is superb!
|
 |
Flying Mouse on Sep 21 '07 Love it! $5
|
 |
gorgeous technique!!!wow 5
|
 |
I agree with empiricist. The drawing is incredible, but the text needs to change!
|
 |
the otter is cuuuute.
|
 |
Agreeing with empiricist and akapiefiend..
|
 |
Are you guys talking about the typeface or the content of the speech?
|
 |
the typeface at first
|
|
but it´s a 5$ illustration
|
 |
alexmdc on Sep 21 '07 yeah the typeface is too plain specially next to that awesome illustration, draw the text out by hand, as opposed to typingitin there
|
|
typeface, I love what it's saying. That's what makes it funny!
|
 |
AWESOME!!! $5
on a light color shirt - natural, creme or even on white and use all text to name the shirt. |
 |
yep I agree, the actual speech bubbles themselves detract.. beeautiful illustration though and very funny
|
|
I would prefer it without the speech bubbles, but if they stay the text needs to change. Again, fantastic illustration.
|
 |
i love this, great illustration, the text makes me laugh, different font tho.
good stuff! |
|
http://wiltekirra.it-serv.info/art/sirtee.jpg - new text, no bubbles
|
|
is this a vintage scan of some kind?
|
 |
Nice!
|
|
Nope, drew it graphite and inks for color.
|
 |
text content is perfect, but Font needs major work. I love it tho!
|
 |
I'd hand draw the text to make it more integrated with the illustration (which is spectacular).
|
 |
kooky love on Sep 21 '07 GREAT $5
|
 |
you, sir or madam, are going places
|
|
no text. love the coloring though
|
 |
must have !!
|
 |
great characters. wonderful work!
|
 |
Great illustration, not sure about the text. One thing that bothered me is that the otter almost appears to have scales.
|
 |
love the illustration and the text...i find the content of the speech quite funny, change the typeface if you want, but keep the content
|
 |
Lose the text completely. Otherwise it's awesome.
|
 |
Tonteau on Sep 22 '07 Scrub the text entirely or do the typeface by hand.
$5 for the illustration, it's utterly superb. |
 |
Reminds me a lot of this T:
http://www.threadless.com/submission/134602/Now_That_s_Dope Which I like better... |
|
that's exactly the shirt i was thinking of!
|
 |
The text would look so much better if it was hand-written!
Otherwise, fantastic illustration! |
 |
thunderpeel on Sep 22 '07 text concerns aside ( i agree-- content is great but execution is lacking) i worry about how this will look in solid colors, without the benefit of all its subtle tones/gradients and such. It certainly won't look as soft and smooth.
Great illo though |
 |
The url doesn't work, but I agree. Change the typeface and you're set.
|
|
Great shirt, agreed about the text.
|
 |
I disagree. I love the typeface (old version). It reminds me of the Trader Joes ads, or the Married to the Sea comics (marriedtothesea.com). Amazing. Great style, beautiful colors. Everything I love in a t-shirt. 5$
|
 |
It's very like this as well.
But I think it's completely wonderful . . . except for the text. It just makes me laugh so much for some reason. |
 |
I like the characters a whole lot, I wish the text looked more like the illo and less like it was just pasted in there. But overall I still love.
|
 |
Uber Bedknobs and Broomsticks. But I love it just the same.
|
|
Get rid of the text.
$3. |
|
$5!
As it is, or with text alterations!! |
|
Oh man, after looking through another page of submissions, I love this so much that I had to come back and comment it again!
I don't mind the font, because both the drawing style and use of font remind me of childrens writer/illustrator Colin McNaughton (well worth checking out), and so kinda my childhood print print print print print or I'll cry |
 |
On pink!
Omg this has to print. |
 |
bad font, but great otherwise
|
|
I just keep coming back to look at it...
wow |
 |
Oh god the text lose the text.
|
 |
Wi Waffles, your updated design with the revised font looks heaps better (although you could probably tweak it some more just so it looks more hand-styled). Whatever you do, please keep the text -- it just puts the design over the top.
|
 |
I loathe the speech bubbles, but I love the characters.
|
|
The updated version is far better :)
|
 |
I want this so much. $5
|
 |
i fuckin adore otters
$5 |
 |
impossiblejosh on Sep 24 '07 leave the text 5
|
 |
I would get this if it were just the characters, it's great. I'd also end up getting it regardless, I believe.
|
 |
What the hell does pimping have to do with a cup of tea? Pimping is farting. I love the illustration, a lot, but the text fails.
|
|
illustration = ace - would tempt me to buy and yet...
text = not so much |
|
debora, no that's 'pumping'
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pimping I wants!!! |
|
this is amazing
|
|
My friend used to say pimp for a fart. I was less posh, so I said pump. All this pimp my ride shite is ruining the english language. Unless that fish and otter are american whore-masters from the 70's.
|
 |
very very odd-cool. id wear it for my drunk weekends and id be the star of the party
|
 |
better sans text
|
|
since when was 'pimp' in the oxford english dictionary for farting? surely it no more holds that meaning, than it does the 'pimp my ride' meaning?
fact is, it's not 'ruining', it's 'evolving', as language always has. |
|
It seems this shirt will not make sense in Britain at all. Alas.
|
|
i think that this would be perfect with a better font for the text
|
|
wow. your art work is INCREDIBLE. and its amusing.
|
 |
just straight up lose the text, and its bubbles
|
 |
I like the text, though you should definitely hand-write it.
|
 |
I think the updated type without balloons is much better.
|
|
I'm in Britain and I think it makes pretty damn good sense..
we're not completely out of the loop! |
|
aside from the fact Brits love taking the piss out of themselves (Monty Python for example), and whether you meant it or not, these are definitely upper-class English stereotypes
|
 |
This is not only a beautiful illustration but pretty hilarious as well. I agree with AGil that your second go without the balloons is better.
|
|
beautiful illustration! but the font must go.
|
 |
good design but horrible font!
|
 |
I dig it with the font issue resolved the way you had done in that link you posted. Excellent illustration. I live in the United States and I'll buy it if it prints and all my friend will laugh at it because it's funny. Period.
|
 |
Super cool illustration. But i have to agree with most that the font has got to go. Those two are funny enough on their own.
|
 |
Ellsswhere on Sep 26 '07 your second design makes me cautious to vote, and how you plan to get these colors printed worries me... but with fixed text this would be a sweet shirt so i am giving you the benefit of the doubt
|
 |
If you really hart your text, I'd like it better if they didn't both say sir.
"Jolly good?" "Pimping, sir." |
 |
i like the speech bubbles but not the look of the typed font. however i don't like the type style of the handwritten version either. a handdrawn type that looks more like the original type would be good. also it really looks like there are gradients. is it really five colors?
5$ nonetheless. |
 |
way too big, but nice job. still way too big.
|
|
As an Englishman, I can totally dig this! 5$
|
 |
I love it, but must agree about the typeface. It really doesn't stand up to the quality of the rest of the design. Amend that and you are only aq winner.
How about using the 'Old Chap' in one of the bubbles? Jolly good old chap pimpin sir |
 |
nice, lose the text altogether
|
|
No, don't lose the text, just improve it.
|
|
You have to drop the text it ruins the drawing.
|
|
Yet another vote for "use something aside from bleeding Times New Roman!"
The rest, however, is quality work! |
 |
Font horrible! Maybe try Halda? 4
|
 |
sub of the month!
$5 |
 |
Classy, and with new font, spiffy too! $5!
|
 |
$5
|
|
Scrap the text, it sucks. The illustration is quite impressive.
|
 |
OMFGSJKHFSHJBFHDG MUST HAVE IT MUST HAVE IT NOW
KEEP THE TEXT KEEP EVERYTHING THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No seriously... I love it. If it doesn't get printed here, I want it regardless. $5 $5 $5 $5 |
 |
drop the text...
|
 |
renfrue on Sep 28 '07 just wondering, are they gay
or just British? a fanciful $5 either way |
|
the drawing is so strong and the text bubbles are weak, but large and take away from the drawing. i think if you keep the bubbles they should just be outlined and not filled in, and yes agree with above comments please change the typeface.
excellent drawing! |
 |
5$ because it has an otter
|
 |
re-do the text, that's all i can say about this.
great colours, great linework, funny as hell. |
 |
PLEASE THREADLESS PRINT.
I'll make you a deal, if you print this shirt I will personally do your laundry for a year. And I seperate whites and darks. |
 |
I love it (including the content of the text). I'm pretty impartial about the font.
|
|
I love this. I also love the text. Fonts were used like that in old illustrations for children's books, ad's ect...... Pre- digital. I think it is a lovely stylistic choice, and makes the content even funnier.
|
|
Going back to something way back up there. Pimp my ride type English (axe instead of ask, exscape instead of escape) is ruining the English language. It may well be evolving, but in a very bad way.
|
|
PS I don't want my language pimped.
|
|
ok, I gotta agree I prefer the original 'ask' and 'escape', but there's really very little we can do to stop it!
It's happened for thousands of years, and I'm sure scholars of the times were distressed at apparent misuse and alteration of the language. 'The English Language' isn't a fixed thing, it's fluid. And there are different strains of the language developing in different areas, it's not like it's lost |
