Very rough idea based on my slogan submission giving me the mental image of those gals that wear shirts 3x too small for their boisterous frames.



Slogan, of course, rips on the famous line from Jaws.



p.s.

Can someone please explain why blacks keep disappearing when I submit? My computer shows them...

I found the circle tool, can you tell? heh.



FYI, I plan to actually draw the thing by hand, this is just to test the waters.

I like the play on the idea of wearing a t-shirt and talking about a t-shirt issue, which I a agree that you gotta fit your get-up to your degree of sex appeal. I would like to see it drawn. I don't like the idea of goofing on fat people, but you can manipulate the steretype of fat people in the US compared to that of Europe.

I'm big enough to be! Sourbitch so fat, back of her neck looks like a pack of hot-dogs. Sourbitch so fat, she's got smaller people caught in her orbit. Sourbitch so fat, she gets winded taking the escalator. Sourbitch so fat, she gotta iron her pants on the driveway. Sourbitch so fat, she sweats hamburgers.

I like the concept, but most people don't like text on the shirt, and unfortuanately, without the text the illustration doesn't make your point.

I think it's a really funny idea. But the design most certainly needs work.

You would lose the "Jaws" reference, which I think is cool, but if you wanted to get rid of the text you could just draw a Orca-fat guy holding up a tiny t-shirt against his chest.



He could be smiling, like he thinks it will look good.

He could be frowning.



I admit this is pretty subtle and probably not where you were going with the pop culture reference.
