oh i like it very much.

castle on Mar 14 '07 The idea has merit. I think colors could be more engaging and the drawing of the guy needs some work. Is he wearing a tie? with a long sleeve t-shirt?
Is it raining? |
 |
Orange~On~Orange on Mar 14 '07 nice drawing chap.
|
 |
Words cannot describe how much I love this.
$5. I ♥ octopusses. |
 |
Love this. but I prefer center position.
|
 |
I like it! but can't the guy have a face, please?
|
 |
really clever
|
 |
really loved it, very nice
|
 |
that's a pretty incredible octopus.
|
|
^I agree it would be nice to see a face on the guy.
|
 |
I don't think he needs a face. In fact I really like that he doesn't have a face.
|
 |
interesting idea. needs some reworking.
|
 |
i never knew Octopus were such a huge craze until I came to Threadless.
|
 |
creepy
|
 |
I really like the concept, but I wish the design of the man matched the design of the octopus.
|
|
I think castle has the right line of questioning: what exactly is this fellow's attire? It really does seem like a strange tie over long-sleeve shirt combo.
I think the octobrella is awesome, but the guy needs some work to unify the design. 3 for now, but with some revisions this is an easy five. |
 |
I agree with Arco, gwendar, et. al. Almost there- love the octopus (and I'm not an octophile), but the guy doesn't quite fit.
|
 |
oooooh ! i love it
5$ |
 |
I like it, like the guy & love the octopus. 5$

Great decision to place it off-center! It might be a great deal more effective if it were more subtle (consider shifting the non-background colors closer to the background, sort of a "dampening" effect), that was it's something you always go "[squint] what's that... thing again?... oh yeah haha" instead of something you quickly toss off |
|
er, that is, "something you grow to toss off quickly"
|
 |
Awesome. They guy doesn't need a face.

The guy does NOT need a face. And I think it looks awesome. Not everything needs to be matchy, and I love the way you drew the Octopus. Great.
|
|
Drawing great. Bigger on shirt.
|
 |
I like it, but I'd like it more if I could see the guy's expression. Is he ashamed of having an octopus for an umbrella? Is he proud? Is he blase? Is it just another day at the office? I'm curious.
|
 |
yes yes yes!!! no face, it's fine the way it is 5$
|
 |
needs to be a bit bigger. and probably centered.
|
 |
that is very cool
|
 |
awesome
|
 |
Very Cool! Off the wall in a tastefully done way.
|
 |
I like this shirt but I don't like the positioning.
|
 |
Larger and more towards the middle and you've got my vote.
Please, don't make it bottom heavy. |
|
Great drawing, btw.
|
 |
why does it only have six arms? give it all eight and I'd buy it. 4 for now
|
 |
It looks like the same shape as the octopus from the WE WERE NOT MEANT TO BE shirt from Dinosaur Comics. Way too much, in fact. http://www.qwantz.com/cephalopodloversunite.jpg
|
 |
Are you serious? This is the first time I see this "we were not ment to be"-shirt and I see a wide difference.
I agree with Polyester Jones, Mikey Maddox, bobmi... The guy doesn't need a face. "Not everything needs to be matchy" [thanks bobmi] thats my opinion too. I am not sure with this position, maybe the center position is better... hmmm. Thanks for the comments guys :) |
|
great concept, love the color choices. very understated. keep everything exactly the way it is.
5$. |
 |
very cool. $5
|
 |
The man's hair looks a bit like Hitler. ;_;
|
 |
tenta-cool!
seriously though, more detail on the tentacles; no detail on the guy's face. |
 |
i love it, but shouldnt the octopus have 8 legs?
|
 |
Is this a squid or an octopus???? Be honest.
|
 |
ace, totaly random and wonderful.
|
 |
..cocktabrella.
|
 |
I like it but that fact that the lines are two different colors bothers me. But, i'd buy it nonetheless.
|
 |
I like the no-face
|
 |
Scotticus on Mar 19 '07 i'd wear this:) i love the soft tones 5$
|
 |
What's up with all the out of place aquatic animal submissions. Are they fun to draw?
|
 |
You couldn't have picked a worse placement. Sorry folks, putting your design in a random place on the shirt is not "interesting." In the center is the place to be. Any good designer will tell you that.
As for the design, I think it's pretty sweet, actually. Just one suggestion: the man and the octopus don't exactly blend. The man is minamalist (doesn't even have a face) and the octopus is fairly detailed. You've got two different art styles going on. |

amazing 5 $
|
 |
add some rain, please
|
 |
I'm not fond of the positioning but everything else is great. The guy does NOT need a face.
|
 |
I Love this Shirt. And to add to the battle: HE DOES NOT NEED A FACE! I love it the way it is right now.
$5 |
|
Ha! Class.
|
|
its a sextapus
|
 |
i think the image should be a little bit bigger, but other than that, it's great! $5
