The Organ Grinder

The Organ Grinder

About the design

Submitted by martiandrivein on December 11, 2006

There are two color combos, blue and green (on the left), and pink and green (in the detail and placement).



This is a literal take on an organ grinder. Thanks for you feedback!

Your best, twisted expression of the stuff that ferments in dark recesses of your mind to date. I'll buy two if they become available. Nice detail.

JanVic

awww i like both :)

norskwind

I wish there was a monkey somewhere...

norskwind

...even if it was like embossed into the face of the grinder.

I think this is awesome, I'd buy it. I really like how you did the stuff oozing out, and I love the style of the grinder. Nice work!
Oh and I think it looks best in green and blue

Kogepan

Yay, it's finally up! $5. And I think I decided I like green/blue best. This really is a nice design.

Rainn

The green and magenta makes it look like you just ground Zim.

Great colors, clever sub. Hate that font but won't count you down for it... 5

haha.. the font isn't on the shirt silly...thanks!

freehandprofit

Oh, I know it's not on the shirt. We both know there are those voters who do score lower because of the presentation of the design. I can't stand that tho, it's silly.

Oogy

So cute and clever!

conwomanKell

I love it!! I really like the blue and green. Very creative! :]

chelly

i really like this, but would like the organ to be a more drastically different color than the grinder. still, 4.

supastarxx11

crackersinmyshoe

blue ad green for sure...amazing concept!

realslimnatey

i want to grind this design, in that sexual kind of way

huebucket

Clever man!!

hogboy

haha snap... I was about to start on a sub called organ grinder... of course mine was just a scary drawing of a guy playing an instrument with a clockwork monkey on his shoulder, no twists...damn it!

Thanks for the nice comments!!!

believe it or not, my idea started out like that hogboy...I was gonna have a marionette style monkey holding a jack in the box...(like my previous design) but then I was like...OMG! a grinder. sweet. Took some inspiration from APY and Jublin on color, and then just asked other bloggers if the idea was worth subbing. PS Can't wait to get my hands on destroy NYC.

Am I the only one that likes the one with the pink and green? And I dont even LIKE pink. Wtf... This is my favorite I think. I like pianos. :)

lemonalle

Nice one!

conwomanKell

Oh and I gave you a 5! :]

Helix589

Awesome, I wanna grind some organs!

Rockrohr

are the words going to be on the shirt?

borninahandbag

AWESOME! 5$, most definitely. I think I like the pink a bit more, as it's got a little more contrast agains the gray, although both are great.

...why would the words, placement, color and detail be on the shirt?...that makes no sense. no they are not going to be on the shirt.

miss _scarlet

I like it but i rather have the design a little smaller.

icyx

Nice choice of colors

corvettegirl721

I like the blue version the best.5

Jennifuhrer

This is fun
I'd wear it
I miss you

kpurkiss

I like the pink better.

LornaGertrude

dont know if you'll ever find this comment but you really should re-submit this. Its really beautiful but you have to get rid of the organ. its nice for the title but just doesnt work for the rest of the design. It couldnt fit into the top of the grinder. What about a whole bunch of instruments? or if you want to be gross you could do marching band members with their little hats etc.

I wouldnt say any of this if i wasnt REALLY into this design. You should defineatly try some changes and even just get a critque on them.

Please? :)

djadjaq

hey.. it's very creative idea
