Baron von Aaron even sent me 23 links to identical designs....this is really well done, and as far as I can tell i've never seen these 3 in a lineup before. I always dig your style.
@ste7en-- no. So you're saying that I could make a design with three types of shit against a prison lineup wall, call it the ususal suspects, and it would be totally different from all of the other designs?
..I have never seen it before. Plus it'd make a cool shirt. The only thing I have to say it that stay puf and the tire guy are a lot taller than the dough boy.
Baron: First you mock him, then call his work "shit." Perhaps you should calm down a bit. Or maybe, you can take the effort you put into belittling him and design some t-shirts of your own. Also, please note that "The usual suspects" is not even on the actual shirt design. Although he does call the design that, and make a reference in his first comment, the t-shirt design only really illustrates a police line-up. Southworth: I love the comparison, although the height comparison, is a little strange.
What about the idea has been done before? The lineup concept? Are you saying that this EXACT idea has been done before, with Stay Puft, Dough Boy, and Michelin Man? Basically the idea here is they all got brought in because they all look similar, even though Dough Boy is clearly an innocent victim of profiling.
And yes, obviously they are different heights in "real life", but marshmallow men can't grow beards or smoke cigarettes in "real life", either. Think of them as the actors who PLAY the characters, if it helps you.
Amen, sister. Looking back thorough the submissions, I see now the lineup thing has been done a lot, but I didn't know that at the time. I still think it's a solid design, though.
i think that the dough boy needs to be shorter. i really like this though, i don't care if it's been pointed out that they look the same before. i like this way.
Guys, if the characters were the "correct" size, the Michelin Man would come up to about the middle of Stay Puft's foot, and the Pillsbury Dough Boy would be a little white dot on the floor. I can see making PDB a little shorter to emphasize his meekness, though.
I love this, it's hilarious. Who cares if a similar design has been done before? There will always be something similar out there to most designs. This works because of the way southworth made the design his own, with the characters he chose to put in it, the composition, everything.
I don't understand why people get so nasty & anal on this site sometimes.
Eiríkrbjörn: Maybe you should learn to read. I never said his design was shit. In fact, I complimented it. I guess I will submit a design--how about the one that I suggested?
Southworth: I get the design, and it's very well done. The only problem is that other designs have been made with a variety of characters.
wimbels: What is different about this composition? It's three subjects in front of a police lineup. There is nothing in this that is any different from the others, except for them being different subjects. But it's the same idea and implementation.
Crater: No. And I don't see how this is like his other designs. I like his other designs. I like this design. The only difference between his other designs and this one is that his others haven't been submitted before.
Hope this ends some of your misconceptions-
aaron
p.s. I'm working on "The Usual Suspects" with piles of shit, be prepared for some original "shit"
I think the difference here is that the story being told is different. It's not just criminals lined up in front of a wall. They're obviously all there because they look alike, even though the one in the middle clearly doesn't belong there. He is a victim of "white lumpy guy" profiling by cops who can't tell the difference between a dude made out of marshmallow, bread dough, or rubber.
For the record, I never thought you were calling the design shit, Baron, but when you make any comparison using fecal imagery, be prepared for someone to get defensive, no matter the context. Good advice!
This is so cute. I love the little Dough Boy. :) Yes, the line up, or the 'usual suspect' concept has been done a lot, but this one's different, and I like it. 5.

It'd be funny to see them both poking dough boy in the face or something...but great job as-is!

wouldnt the pillsbury boy be smaller then the rest? i think a little variation in size would help this out a lot.
