Urban Raptor: Yeah, but neither are the keyboard, CDs, or webcam. The whole thing is in a state of motion, so everything is kind of up in the air and all over the place. Thanks, everybody!
looks a whole lot like this to me. Under "Our Work" and it's the Yoohoo - Burnt Rubber Summer (on the rubix cube thing closest one to the images 2 box)
Well yeah, there's a lot of Ed Roth-style stuff out there. But this is a parody, in that it's taking the original spirit of the illustrations, which was a Hot Rodder gearhead mentality, and juxtaposing it with the opposite; Nerd Culture.

A parody of/tribute to the great Ed Roth. Also a rework of a previous, somewhat poorly-received design.
YEAH!

RAT FINK!

reminds me of the illustrations in Mad

Awesome work!

funny. it doesnt need the text
southworth
Thanks! And it does need the text, if the parody is going to hold up. Almost all of the Ed Roth t-shirts had big, bombastic, cartoony text on them.

Awesome! Personally, I don't like white tshirts, but the design is awesome enough I might overlook that. :)
theurbanraptor
the only problem i see with this shirt is that the mouse is not on the table.

It's the new AirMouse! That's how big a nerd he is. 100%!

Not saying you copied just very similar.

p.s. not sure if this person was tributing Ed Roth or if Ed Roth was the illustrator either.

Change that Star Trek logo into a Horde or Alliance WoW logo and you get twice the mileage. (plus, it's nerd 2.0!)

Nice homage!

It'd be a little nicer on a different color shirt, but not nearly as nerdy. I can't wait to spill Dr. Pepper on it, It's glorious!
