Design Info:

So this shirt was originally designed by me to be a shirt I would like to sleep in. So the entire concept of it spawned from me wanting a sleep-shirt.



I toyed with the idea with a setting at "Night" which got me thinking of kids staying up late and monsters under the bed. Things along those lines. But the monsters under the bed thing was done to death. So I thought along the lines of Monsters INC -- why can't monsters be afraid of humans? How does a kid scare a monster?



After having the sketch of characters, I had to decide what color shirt I want this on. It had to help give off a feeling that the design was taking place at night. I wanted to avoid black and gray though -- and I wasn't entirely thrilled about doing this on blue. Going through NiNTH WHEEL's templates though, I found mint! Mint was too perfect to pass up -- and while Threadless doesn't consistently print on mint, they have -- so I felt it was ok to put the design on mint.



I cut up some water color stock in photoshop -- slapped a pattern on it -- and altered everything to the appropriate color scheme according to the mint shirt. Thus, "Did You Hear Something?" was born.

Awesome illustration! This is definitely worthy of being more than just a sleep shirt.

I'll guess 2.88 for the final score.

All about me
I am a 20-something year old guy currently attending the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design as an Illustration Major. I'm usually quite shy -- so internet forums and the like are great for me because I can hide behind my computer. I love Questionable Content and the character Hannelore.

I love Threadless, and I even founded the Threadless Meet-ups with a simple blog. I made a few designs that scored 'ok' -- but I had them cleared to start fresh. If you send me Street Points, I will love you forever. I sometimes find myself bothering Charles Festa whenever I visit Threadless HQ -- he's just a cool dude.
