This is a little cheeky as it was put up as V4 of 'Warhol Bunnies'. I do feel though that the whole concept has changed so radically that it now stands apart from warhol bunnies and the original thumbnail does not illustrate it properly. Still, I am just learning how this whole site works so if that is a no-no someone needs to tell me!!!

Oh thanks! i just commented on the other one... so look there.

no-no

I mean, if you somehow incorporated some sort of irony or comedic element this might be able to do well, but right now it is just a t-shirt depicting an animal that is about to die.

Travioli, you really don't get this do you? You have obviously never met a 'bunny boiler' either (and I sincerely hope you don't!) It's a phrase that became popular from a scene in a film that was a little before your time. So yeah, the comedy and irony is already there, just not in your age group sweetie.

In that case, you could stylize the text mor or try drawing it yourself.

Artwork is mine..font belongs to microsoft, is that the bit I should be redrawing?

Drawing is a little basic, text is a little WordArt. It's very literal; so it's a bunny being boiled, so what? You could leave out the artwork and just submit the slogan, and it would say the same thing, knowattimean?

NYC...if a girl was walking around with just 'Bunny boiler' on her shirt no guy would ever talk to her! Did you not see the film either? Is this possibly a geographical thing? Certainly in the UK it's a well known phrase- unless you are pre - 25ish it looks like. Confused!

It isn't really connected to the reference in any way (except being literal) and it is a bit obscure-- not matter the age group.

it doesn't seem funny to the people who don't get the connection (including myself).

Don't get it either *sorry*. What film?



And the font does look too basic.

The film was Fatal Attraction, and 'Bunny Boiler' has the same connotation's in the UK as it does in the US.



My point is, what difference does the picture make? Guys won't talk to you with or without it! If it was, I don't know, a water heater with big ears, it would be at least partly ironic; at the moment, the text says 'Bunny Boiler' and so does the picture.

Lose the text altogether then????

Yum!

Yes, lose the text.

Not actually convinced that this will ever work on a shirt, but hey, any bright ideas out there?

Whoops. Acidentally lost the shirt

Think you might be right. It's just too literal. It actually IS someone putting a live animal into boiling water. Can't be good.

Hey I wonder if it would work if a had a happy looking bunny in the pot with a back scrubber ---- like he was taking a bath. I coulod change the title to 'false impression' LOL!

i like it and i DO know the movie and the phrase and i'm only 22 haha!!!! no text is good coz you can see exactly wat is going on without it being spelled out.....

I may be way off on this, but shouldn't the focus be more on the human (the actually bunny boiler) instead of the bunny? As is it just kinda looks cruel and I don't even think of the unseen person attached to the arm.



If you can make this work you're way more imaginative than I am. I don't see a way to do it with a picture. How about just "bunny boiler" as a slogan shirt? Or maybe just scrap this idea completely and focus on a new design.
