5 - great!

slap me on Mar 22 '07

I love it! However any chance you could remove all the guff in the background leaving the bridge and beat box. Thats all it needs to make it brilliant!

Do that andf it'll sell billions! Such a good character!

Great!! Hope it wins- I'd buy it!!

The character is great. I'm less sure about the "scratch" "bleep" "bloop" etc and the skyline behind him. The character is so great that I find the rest to be somewhat distracting. Maybe kill the white text and clouds, and shrink the skyline a bit, or knock out some musical notes and lightning bolts in the skyline as well.

Maija - my thought exactly. It doesn't need all the guff just the bridge and beat box. Its so good!

but i like guff

slap me on Mar 22 '07

You might like guff but you've gotta cater for a global audience.

It's just to busy. The character and bridge are superb. Just stop there. It's enough. Maybe chuck in 1 or 2 notes but thats it.

Don't get me wrong I love it. Just turn the volume down.

He make me think, of a new friend of bob the spong lol. Nice draw.

jhstatts on Mar 22 '07

I like guff, too.

Maybe add some pentagrams and goat-leggings.

helo on Mar 22 '07

great character in a great design :)

all the text, notes, and other elements adding to
the design's busy-ness do well in visually showing
how disruptive loud boomboxes were during the 80s

flopart on Mar 22 '07

yeohgh on Mar 22 '07

love your illustration and the character,,SUPER great! 5

Robsoul on Mar 22 '07

awesome work, digging the character a lot. Nice colors too.

maija on Mar 22 '07

It's not so much the guff, it's the white. It's pulling away from the character.

Heck, I'd like more guff, as I said (notes and bolts in the skyline).

r.o.b.o.t.i.c.octopus on Mar 22 '07

little_mystique on Mar 23 '07

leave the "guff" whatever that is - it looks as it is!

alexan on Mar 23 '07

if there was no radio,

TheloniusMnk on Mar 23 '07

I'm not into the color scheme, but the design is def (I'm using 80s lingo!).

roflcathy on Mar 24 '07

Very spiffy.

FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 26 '07

Great stuff for the contest and Threadless in general...i love the one piece of sidewalk jutted out with the boombox happily booming along...i can almost see it moving! I disagree with a lot of folks here as i really enjoy all the busy-ness of the design and the full sense of city life in the 80's. I just wish you made the whole design double its size as it should be as loud and out-there as the era the shirt is depicting. Still, awesome job and a 4$ for you!
