Few more updates coming soon

AWorldApart on Feb 01 '07

Nice.

BlameTheSuburbs on Feb 01 '07

With something like this there is a thin line between ambiguity and overt symbolism. This is a bit too generic to be thought or wonder provoking.

StopPickingOnMe on Feb 01 '07

Blames big words up there confuse me^

drmtama2 on Feb 01 '07

dude!!!!

its freakin awesome the way it is!!!!

sonmi on Feb 01 '07

i'd wear it, because i'm all about eyes and triangles, no matter what meaning it's actually supposed to have. i know it's supposed to be monetary, like us dollars, but i'd love to see some brighter color options like your peace & power sub, too.

tomburns on Feb 01 '07

i think it might help the design to make all the other stuff (ex., the pyramid, banner, masons thing) old looking like the wings.
looks cool though, i'd wear it! :)

jwalsh on Feb 01 '07

nice!
great to see it in color

pilihp on Feb 01 '07

love the details on wings. i agree with tom on making the other elements match the wings. maybe add a shadow around the design like on the wings to make it pop off the shirt.

renfrue on Feb 01 '07

needs something in latin written on the banner
that translates to blood oath or something

chelly on Feb 02 '07

not a fan of the sleeve design part, although i do like having that banner (trust). like the big'un.

Kerrn on Feb 02 '07

mean green!

i like the sleave part better

-k.

brain_stain9 on Feb 02 '07

It is a bit confusing. It looks like an upside down medallion necklace, the all knowing eye is rightside up on the sleeve design but upside down on the main design, what do the angel wings have to do with it? Maybe you just need to explain your thinking behind the design. I think your colors are excellent but you just need to rethink your elements because they are interesting. Just not clear the message you are trying to send.

Leenie691 on Feb 02 '07

I think it's lovely. Threadless needs more monochrome submissions.

tesco on Feb 02 '07

the eye doesnt look evil to me, looks more resigned. I like the theme though and eveything is looking pretty tight. keep going.

a few color options
more to come

ir0cko on Feb 06 '07

i like the colors on the white tee :)

Skipper6745 on Feb 06 '07

May still be a bit too simple, compared to its predecessor, but as always, I love the colour scheme on white. And the hoody idea is nice.

But maybe needs some more complexity.

angelito on Feb 06 '07

the colours on white really pop :)

speedyjvw on Feb 06 '07

i have no idea what im going to add to this
needs something more

help plz?

castle on Feb 07 '07

I will add to the consensus - White!

As for adding something - can't think of anything right now

redelephantlabel on Feb 07 '07

White's okay, the colors are definitely cool, but it makes my eyes burn a little. I like the way it looks on the back of a hoodie but the colors still aren't working for some reason, I'm really not sure. I actually kind of just like the way it looks on green.

Jhoudora on Feb 07 '07

COOL I LIKE IT ITS SO NICE I LIKE THE IMPROVEMENTS

sonmi on Feb 07 '07

wow, looks sweet on purple! i like how the hoody looks.

Luke... on Feb 07 '07

looks superb as a "crest" [on the side of the chest]
suggestions:
roman numerals in the banner [ MCMIVII, something like that]
maybe some latin text
maybe some "Cream" tones and greens on the green shirt.

ISABOA on Feb 07 '07

great job - Latin would be cool

pecunia est magna
rident stolidi magna pecunia
terreo pecuniae

Put a monocle on the eye to class up the design.

The only explaination for your disobediance is that you wish to be a nemesis again.

I like the green hoodie... It looks like the antichist of money! :P

Plase check my progress with Ram Memory, and this new idea Baseball bat

sonmi on Mar 02 '09

are you a FREEMASON?

xcarnoxometzx on Mar 02 '09

Pretty cool design. The green hoodie is reminiscent of the triforce symbol. I would def buy it. great.

Please take a look at my new design. (Please be brutal, as I don't know if this type of shirt would appeal to anyone on this site). Thank you.
Red, Black and Blue
