Basically my idea was to create a design that "proves" that horizontal stripes make you look fat. But now that i'm done with the fat zebra, i think it doesn't really look fat enough (of course i know that horizontal lines don't really make anyone look fat) and the shirt is kinda empty.
So there are several options now:
1. Make the zebra fatter.
2. Add an extremely thin/anorexic vertically/naturally striped zebra laughing at the fat one, looking surprised or just walking by (with the fat one glancing at it jealously).
3. Add something completely different.

Suggestions and criticism are much appreciated! :)

I think you should add another zebra, like you said. This thing looks really cool though! Thats a lot of stripes!!

Check out mine if you get a chance:

This is completely excellent! Something bothers me about the snout, though...

Maybe if the nostrils and mouth were solid black, as opposed to having the linework you have right now?

Need some crit!

Gosh dang this hurts my eyes, but it is an awesome design to say the least.

You've pretty much figured out what you need to do next, so I'd work on that and see where to go from there.

Best of luck!

Help me?

I agree with a larger zebra. Maybe you could have thicker stripes that way ... may or may not help make it look fatter ... and a little easier on the eyes.

or maybe just have a zebra head and make that head really big. I know it would stray away from your theme, but I think that would just make an awesome shirt in general.

if you're not down with this, I agree in making a larger zebra and the tail is kind of bothering me.

hope this helps!

This rules! I like the obese zebra idea... make him really fat! I'd stay away from the "anorexic zebra laughing at him" concept, because then fat chicks will get offended and vote you low.

(I am an asshole.)

Critique me back if you can?

Ooo, if you have just the head on the front, you should definitely have just the butt on the back .... or you know, not, whichever.
