here's the link to the crit. it might be ready for voting but i want to see what people have to say.

elephant with peanuts. something for a broader audience. maybe this will be better received by the threadless community. These are just the elements. not sure how to design it yet.

thanks for the nick brandt inspiration carla.:)

:D

these are the colors that it is readable on. im not sure how many tee shirt colors we are allowed to have available. this might be too many.

...cleaned it up a bit. i added some white line work and now i think it works on any color.

threadless politics

Apparently it's frowned upon to rally your friends to vote on your design.
this is a post on a T-shirt made by someone else.

"wow, what great details.

no, sillies, not in the drawing details, but in the fact you were able to rustle up that many friends to comment in so short a time--with detail oriented kisses. you must find it hard to sit down at this point.

seriously, after seeing some of the other artwork barely noticed, but worth comments, on this site, and then by happenstance coming across this "work of doodle", leaves me rather..."

it seems that the users on threadless really value their sense of community and are insulted when someone pollutes the system with friend rallying. the social environment is more complex than i thought and now i'm worried that i will be subject to similar scrutiny if my obvious attempts at rallying "pay off".

now that i think about it some more, threadless encourages the "rustling up" of friends and gives you convenient links to your design to post and email everywhere. I now feel have not done anything wrong in this sense and i will use this as defense if anyone calls me out.

It's up let's do this!

look it's Giggle Panda! he only looks good on dark colors of course. This is directly from facebook graffiti so i might have to redraw it. Any thoughts on placement or size?

submitted!
they will be contacting me in 4-8 business days. My submission will be reviewed by their group of Judges before put into the running. They will send me an email when my submission has been approved for scoring.

Here's my progress on the threadless tee. I'm submitting it to the "threadless loves drawing" contest. I cant decide which preview image to submit, so here are both. The olive green is the only color that i think works, but I didn't want to limit people to one color.

I figured just one image would be good enough, considering this is my first time, and I don't know how to do the fancy flash stuff. :/
