btbam67 on Mar 27 '07

looks cool

chocofungi on Mar 27 '07

i like it except for the yellow figure in the centre, it just really doesn't fit

cherrylimeade on Mar 27 '07

i dunno, it looks better in the picture (the yellow figure)... i like it!

DragonFLY Robot Zero on Mar 27 '07

it totally dose fit the yellow figure is from the game of death fucking sweet flick. by far the nicest looking bruce lee shirt i have seen. this better win!!

ninja.bassist on Mar 27 '07

this is great! I hope it wins.

Dellex on Mar 27 '07

Good stuff!!

Lhiiiz on Mar 27 '07

I understand that he's spray painting the image and all, but I just don't like the yellow figure either. So he's from one of the movies, big deal, the other image is strong enough that he is not needed. Besides, he doesn't appear to be holding the can so much as it seems it has been stuck to him. The other cans look like cut outs as does he himself. The rest of the illustration is great, and it looks great with the shirt color. Either highly refine Mr. Yellow or get rid of him.

Iheartgus on Mar 27 '07

i don't like the yellow figure either.

Monkey III on Mar 27 '07

Bruce!!!!!! Awesome.

mezo on Mar 27 '07

Shit, that background is AWESOME. I love the sketchy feel of the fighters combined with the clean line art of the dragon combined with the strong silhoette of the dude in the foreground. So many different styles come together AND STILL look cohesive. Amazing.

This also is one of the very few times where that splatter effect WORKS.

But I hate that lettering on the back of that track suit.

Exigent on Mar 27 '07

I like the yellow figure... but maybe a less vibrant yellow.

Image rocks.

sanchia on Mar 27 '07

A great background but as others have said maybe a little more work on the yellow foreground figure

yeohgh on Mar 27 '07

i LOVE THIS and SUPER ROCK, and jimmy, welldone!! have a kungfu fighting,,SUPER $5

Robsoul on Mar 27 '07

I'd wear that fo-sho. Shud-up MEZO gurl, I love that lettering, otherwise it's be too plain ;-)

joshhupp on Mar 27 '07

I don't remember bruce lee being big in the 80's. He died in 1973. I'm voting this low since it doesn't fit the theme. Have Threadless put it in the regular running.

FeatherBreeze on Mar 27 '07

HELL YES!!!!

finally a good Bruce reference

Im a student of Jeet Kune Do...can you really say that? if you know Bruce and his teachings you know what i mean.

i would most definitely buy this, under no circumstances would i miss out on this one

Kojima on Mar 27 '07

Nice to see you back and designing.

Ryuk on Mar 27 '07

nanania1 on Mar 27 '07

Didn't one of your previous designs use the exact same bruce lee drawing? Oh well, it looks awesome so 5.

zueristyle on Mar 27 '07

there's a lot of energy in this picture. and the shape of all together is just perfect! That's it...

crap on Mar 27 '07

sweet for the regular comp.

dacat on Mar 27 '07

I love this, the only thing I'd do is make the yellow figure's head more like Bruce's hair (round head not flat-top) and much thinner...he wasn't a big bulky guy...otherwise it's still awesome! $5

Seniormoonkay on Mar 27 '07

i love this art

Ellsswhere on Mar 27 '07

i loved the illo when it was just bruce... now its fucking beautiful

cintrao on Mar 27 '07

my favorite alter ego... 5 *****

vradesign on Mar 27 '07

This is bad azz... I think this would be a winner in the Standard competition! $5

katydid on Mar 27 '07

dig the line work and the paint splatters. don't know how you made those but I'm dying to know, myself. wouldn't buy it only because it's not my bag, but I like your style.

BubuSam on Mar 27 '07

Well, this is your best design for Bruce Lee so far though.

kooky love on Mar 27 '07

GREAT $5

Flashman on Mar 27 '07

jaysonjangles on Mar 27 '07

liwintin on Mar 27 '07

it's good 5$ *_____*

bobbiprado on Mar 27 '07

i loved it!!! FIVE.:

n8cha on Mar 27 '07

Amazing art, I'd definently buy this. But I agree that the yellow figure in the front should be a bit smaller in physique (more bruce like) and the hair should def. be rounder not so much a flat top. Otherwise...this is awesome.

jimmytan on Mar 27 '07

haha yellow figure tats not Bruce ^^, is one guy being himself ... so attitude... 'being myself' dont care wat ppl say.. yo yo~! bruce rock.. thank for comment. luv u guys.

waikhong on Mar 27 '07

this is great! keep it up!

styld on Mar 28 '07

the yellow guy should be a lighter brown if anything. and please add more color

Willish on Mar 28 '07

Make the yellow figure a more sepia tone?

rub my pants there magical on Mar 28 '07

i kind of liked this design then jimmytan just ruined it for me but being a dick. If you dont care what people think get your t-shirt printed elsewhere. I agree that the text on the yellow should go if not the guy himself.

cpdesign on Mar 28 '07

Lose the sillouette figure and the spray cans at the bottom or maybe redraw the figure using the spray can in the style of Bruce Lee and I'd buy that for sure. 5

MissThreadless on Mar 28 '07

whats up with the yellow bannana in the middle?

XxXGemXxX on Mar 28 '07

jimmytan on Mar 28 '07

i'll accept all comment and thanks i appreciat

milkchoc on Mar 29 '07

awesome design!!!!!!

jimmytan on Mar 29 '07

thanks~! ^^,
I came, I gave my best shot, I am without regrets.

mephitine on Mar 29 '07

Very well done, but Bruce Lee was definitely biggest in the 70's in my experience (though of course his influence continues even now). Perhaps this could kick it in the regular competition? Best of luck to you!

tkleong on Mar 29 '07

wow, this is great, $5

Pablo Hoskobar on Mar 29 '07

This design is awesome, very cool and wearable. Plus, the yellow figure is pure genius, don't listen to these non-believers Jimmytan.

colonel_bob on Mar 29 '07

very nice. i'd buy it.

MagusMaster on Mar 29 '07

M-E-H meh

herky on Mar 29 '07

wicked illustration style and design, nice work $5

chungkam on Mar 30 '07

bruce lee spirit will never die....

heyheyitsme on Mar 30 '07

nice illustration

FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 30 '07

great style and illustration for an urban outfitters tee, but i don't think this is threadless's style or the kind of design i come to this site for....fantastic sub tho.

nikogrande on Mar 31 '07

well, it's bruce lee so technically the worst i can give it is a 4 but it's awesome so 5

Thomas S Magnum on Mar 31 '07

Good one. Maybe the firts interesting artwork based on Bruce Lee...

Thomas S Magnum on Mar 31 '07

Pls remove the yellow from the man standing and it will be g.r.e.a.t. 5$!

tshirtfreakfan on Mar 31 '07

what about the ladies?

underzenith on Apr 02 '07

KICKA*S!!!! THIS IS SO COOL!

sadran on Apr 02 '07

LOVE IT!

LaikaLost on Apr 02 '07

Okay, I love everything about this. Don't change a thing. I'm buying this as is.

jimmytan on Apr 03 '07

thanks alot all comment... ??

Dirkthedaring on Apr 04 '07

I like the elements. But did you redraw the center bruce, I've seen a clipart of that around alot. Hope you really did redraw it. 4

Misanthropy336 on Apr 04 '07

2.47? This design deserves much more. Who knew that a simple yellow figure could make people score a terrific design lower.

This better be printed. I know tons of people who don't even have Threadless accounts that want this shirt.
