I was just working on how to design my slogan optimist, pessimist, economist...still havent figured out a good way...the nihilist one makes me smile

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 11 '11 at 7:45pm

Thanks!

Nice, I like the Master of evil one, you could use a second line to draw the mouth and a couple of explanatory circles ( notes ) for the hike up and down of the main line which could be use as eyes.
or just give the outline a more similar look to the evil guy you are referring to

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 11 '11 at 8:38pm

Thanks Nestor. New outline, and new hand-drawn lines. I'm also toying with the idea of a series of graphs on one shirt (e.g. Number of Star Systems Through Fingers as a function of Tightness of Grip)

Clever stuff! I like the handrawn feel :)

The Nihilist Cup Really Ties the Design Together.... And Reminds me of the Big Lebowski. And that's a good thing.

Love love love the glasses, - when you are finalizing it, one of the best things would be to soften the palette, IMO

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 11 '11 at 10:28pm

yeah, i always have trouble with color because of my laptop screen. I need to tilt it way back to a certain angle to see how the colors really look.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 12 '11 at 12:06am

New color scheme, and look, Happy Hour is back!

FRICKINAWESOME on Sep 12 '11 at 12:13am

Really like the half/empty/full idea, I'd love to see actually maybe 9 on the shirt in a three row grid pattern to complete the piece?

Awesome dark math piece. Don't think you need anything but the outline, just on the finished piece make the outline more identifiable.

nathanwpyle at gmail.com on Sep 12 '11 at 12:19am

Palette looks a ton better and I like that you eliminated one of the colors -

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 12 '11 at 12:28am

I may have to do a 2 x 2 grid to fit it on the shirt without it being tiny.

ivejustquitsmoking on Sep 12 '11 at 1:57am

I like how the glasses have white lines. If you're nitpicky you can push (shrink) the blue content even more to match glass' thickness

Did that make sense? Also you can try picking shirt color that's on the cool color side.. Although they've printed something with similar color scheme as yours (see aled's mirrors)

I just contradicted myself lol

d3d on Sep 12 '11 at 2:02am

the nihilist one should say "probably poison" rather than "who cares?" but otherwise i love that design. and maybe it could be stacked two on two instead of four in a row because wide designs have to end up so small on a shirt.
the other one is also pretty ingenious but i'd smooth the line out a bit and sharpen the corners so it describes a vader helmet a little more perfectly. not that it doesn't, i just think that line looks a bit shabby.

ivejustquitsmoking on Sep 12 '11 at 2:50am

to just illustrate my point ^ on the glasses

any which way, your idea is excellent, I'm just being trivial :)

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 12 '11 at 10:48am

Thanks for the help!

Yeah I'll experiment with a 2 x 2 grid, or maybe taller glasses. I'll also choose a shirt color from the actual template (color is my weakness).

davidfromdallas on Sep 12 '11 at 11:04am

Pretty sure I've seen the glass one before - but maybe not on a shirt so ignore me.

Regardless, big fan of both.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 13 '11 at 11:20pm

2 x 2 so it fits on a shirt!

d3d on Sep 13 '11 at 11:22pm

i'm going to contradict myself and say all in one row actually looked better, despite the sizing issue.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 13 '11 at 11:31pm

Now with both!

d3d on Sep 13 '11 at 11:58pm

i prefered the pink. the original version was the nicest yet. have some faith in yourself!

nathanwpyle at gmail.com on Sep 14 '11 at 12:03am

A for me!

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 14 '11 at 12:07am

That pink was supposed to be red. Gosh I hate my computer/ LCD screens/wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation between 350 ad 750 nM

d3d on Sep 14 '11 at 1:07am

tell me about it. freaking newton.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 14 '11 at 9:05pm

If the color is hurting your eyes, please tell me honestly.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 14 '11 at 9:12pm

A or B?

GyleDesigns on Sep 14 '11 at 9:16pm

Color is hurting my eyes only tiny bit.

And I think I like 2x2, honestly.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 14 '11 at 9:52pm

now with softer Persimmon color!

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 14 '11 at 10:13pm

Thanks! Now with staggered horizontal row.

xiv on Sep 14 '11 at 10:16pm

A. Nice work!

There's just way too many of those stacked grid designs already.

GyleDesigns on Sep 14 '11 at 10:21pm

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest something crazy. You can hate it, that's totally cool.

What if the last cup was tipped over with all the water spilling out? That seems pretty Nihihihhilistic (spelling doesn't even matter) to me.

Also like the idea of the staggered horizontal.

sonmi on Sep 14 '11 at 10:23pm

^ i kinda like that idea, too.

GyleDesigns on Sep 14 '11 at 10:25pm

You could arrange the glasses as if they're on a table receding from the plane of view.

pretty much like beer pong, I guess.

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 14 '11 at 10:56pm

ooooh, things to think about!

Bio-bot 9000 on Sep 15 '11 at 3:09pm

yeah
