Mea Culpa! In designing my submission for the "hellogoodbye loves..." contest, I used another dinosaur design as a reference when building my ZombieAlienVampireDino. The design must have been way too close to the original, and raised some eyebrows.

Frankly, I have to agree. Especially when the dino I worked from came from another T-shirt design. I feel pretty crummy about it.

So what to do? I'm working on an entirely new ZombieAlienVampireDino, using no previously created dinosaur image other than some museum photos for references. I should be done with this design very soon. It's too bad that I've put this black mark on my design already. Will this new one make up for it? How poorly will a "redesign" fare when I resubmit it? Who knows.

So at least for my own good karma I'll put the more original design up there.

I'm working on another shirt, too. This is really bringing back some great memories of my early design days, and I'm glad to have some fun exercising my artistic skills rather than just playing around with typesetting!
