This is a very, very rough version. It's based off of "Loops" by M.C. Escher. The figure is like a mobius strip: if you follow any one side all the way around, it will go over all four sides and end where it began. I turned it into an infinite roller coaster ride.

I'm going to add a second cart connected to the first, make better people riding them, and work on the various kinks in the track.

Any suggestion on color scheme or anything else is greatly appreciated!

Do more with the design of the coaster, make it strech a bit down the contours of the track. Great idea just need more attention to the cart.

Thanks For commentling on my T-shirt :)

Like the idea but i think you need more detail on the rollercoaster car, it needs to be more than just a red box.

Also maybe try and give the track more the look of an actual wooden roller coaster, or switch it too a steel frame.

better cart. Check out the giant dipper

This is a great Idea, I love the way you did the "loops" I agree the cart needs a bit of work, but it's close. with a little bit of work this will be a solid 5

Nice work! Maybe a little more to differentiate between your coaster and escher's design. More loops and a longer train car would make it really pop.
But generally it's very well executed!

This version has a longer cart with improved people. Thanks for the suggestions. Still has plenty of work to do in the tracks, but thanks.

Any ideas for coloring?

it looks like the second guy in the first cart is trying to hug the guy in front of him, still love the design

cool .. but the twist back onto itself on the right hand side feels a little broken ... great idea tho'

agreed... the twist are a little awkward... great design though...

i think the tracks are great. it's really effective and must have been hell to draw. but this does make the carts and people look a little bland in comparison. maybe a more detailed shape or shadowing?

Still needs more emphasis on the cart, make that baby shine, and really exaggerrate the peoples enthusiasm on the ride.

Interesting Escher like design. The figures need work. Try to add more detail to them faces . Even thought they are small expressions on there faces could help the design. Or if you don't want to do that
at least create neck and sleeve lines (maybe stripes on one shirt a small design on another etc...) so they don't look like the are just sillouettes or naked people. Also rollercoaster saftey harnesses could be a nice touch.

I did some slight modifications in this one. The overlaps are a little more clear. I also introduced the color scheme I'm thinking of. I still have some more rails to add, but I'm wondering if putting all of them in would be too much. Thanks.

i'd like to se detail on the people. faces and such

I'm definitely going to experiment with the people. Their outlines are pretty bad. I also intend to work with adding more detail to the carts (stripes, logos, etc.).

it might be nice if you got rid of the star burst. I just think it would soften the design some.

This is a cool design. I love it

bump

i agree that something would need to be done about the background/ burst, and i like the suggestion of detail in the faces. still, i wouldn't wear it as a shirt.

I don't think I care for the white shape in the background. A white stroke, maybe?

Really inspired concept, I'd love to see where you go with this! :D

it looks like an awesome design, ans as zipper was saying you need to do something with the starburst, i would recomend not nessarly taking it just out, but finding someway to make it fit into the shirt background and in coaster concept.

great idea though, i know this is going somewhere

can't wait to see more subs.

get rid of the starburst and then i'd give it a $5! Brilliant!

That's slick.
Madd nice.

Perhaps work with the background a lil'.
I really dig the design and I'd rock it.

Where on the shirt are you putting this?

the lower left inner curve has no track -

Yeah, there's actually quite a few pieces of track on this one that don't have rails. It was getting very time consuming to do them right, so I skipped ahead to see what the general concensus on the design was.

Alright well then I cant wait til v4 - I love the design and really would love to ride that coaster!

I'm finally about to start working on this guy again.

it will look good at the back of the shirt.. but i cant feel the white star banner at the background....

how about mine?

I agree, no starburst. I think you also forgot track on the inside of the lower left loop, and you should definitely draw it on all four sides even if barely visible (for example, on the bottom side of the lower left loop).

Other than those minor details, it's fantastic. Those people are so f***ed!

What about mine?

i agree with pretty much all that pelesl said. Nice job.
