Great illustration

"Its a gun! No... No its not - its a print of a gun on the t-shirt. No. Sorry - hang on, its not a print of a gun - its a print of a water pistol!".

This might get me shot on the London Underground :(

I'd never wear this down in NYC, cops see this and they get happy trigger fingers. Great illustration though.

yea, i was gonna say that your trigger is wierd, but... it's a water gun. so... go about your business.

it should have been a different color gun so it's more obviously a toy. Can't approve it like this :(

well...im glad you guys like..sorta.
:/

Maybe i should have made it more watergunish, but i wanted it to look like a gun...maybe it wont pass as a shirt...i just thought it was too good of an idea to pass up.

Check the flickr for bigger pics if ya want.

Its really really well done. The subtlety makes it even better. It also makes it almost unwearable in many situations :(

Making the girl tee pink is bad... many girls hate pink and it's sexist. I like the subtlety tho.
Retrac
Retrac on Apr 07 '07
while pink may not be pc, it is a good color for making it clear that it is not a real gun. the fact that it is a water pistol would still be subtle because of the way it it illustrated. However, it would prevent any unfortunate misunderstandings with police officers and/or vigilantes.

Oh yea, and I like it.
katedoe
katedoe on Apr 07 '07
pink is not sexist. it rawks. maybe the shirt shouldn't be gray because that's "neutral", like, politically, man. it's a shirt, not a elected office. well, i guess it kind of is elected....

good design, i love it. $5 and would buy one for each of my closest mates, too.

a waterpistol in neon colors (yello/lime/etc) would have been cool too.

I hate pink; so what? I'd just get the guy version. I have no problem with that.
xiv
   xiv on Apr 07 '07
great concept and execution...

most would be a bit leary about wearing this, due to the color of the gun on the grey shirt. it looks too much like the real thing at a quick glance. id make it an obnoxious neon color.

sexist!? oookay..

This is a really nice shirt Alan, the water pistol is a sweet idea, wish we could see what it really looked like on the shirt instead of a dotted box!
The fabric folds turned out very nicely.

   Luke... on Apr 07 '07
haha, that is awesome, great detail...
[i do agree like everyone else...make the gun in a variety of neon colors, on the grey shirt, i know it takes away the double-take aspect of it, but i think it would further express how FUN this design is]
dancinghelicopter
dancinghelicopter on Apr 07 '07
haha! I had no idea a color couuld be sexist. Many girls hate blue. Is that sexist? Gotta laugh! GreaT DESIGN! I would enjoy this more if the gun were Bright green or orange!

rainbowdust on Apr 08 '07
Hehe clever idea, might be a bit dangerous to wear though. Make it a neon colour and it would rock, though what kind of idiot keeps a watergun tucked into their pants I don't know... Maybe you should include a wet patch :]
Strangemusic
Strangemusic on Apr 08 '07
cool but you need some more water-pistol-looking stuff on the gun to make it less likely that someone will throw the cuffs on you!

p.s. I like how stardance's sexist claim that pink for girls is sexist when the statement she made is sexist itself.
bluecho17
bluecho17 on Apr 09 '07
Yeah, change the gun color and I'd wear it.
TehBohoLuffer
TehBohoLuffer on Apr 09 '07
Maybe add some blue or some water-tone to make it obvious it's a water pistol? I love it, but I don't think I could wear it legally...
I'm going to $5 it though, of course.

max mazur
max mazur on Apr 09 '07
i like it a lot .. i would maybe change the color of the gun but not all of it ... just like the handle or another little part .. just to show that it's a fake .. even though i woudn't get shot here for it .. i probably have a few friends in the police that would laugh about it .. but i'm in Canada ..

Very Cool! But defintely not a shirt to wear travelling internationally... $5!
kamisch42
kamisch42 on Apr 11 '07
Definitely a good idea, but as someone else mentioned, obvious is good. If it looked more like a water gun - like maybe in those candy colors water guns come in - then it'd be safe to wear...otherwise you'd just get the cops called on you all the time! Nice illusion though.

Brilliant it forces a double take which is great as Fatheed said I get the London underground every day and sadly this wouldn't go down well.

Nobody tucks their gun into their pants over the shirt. The whole point is to conceal the thing. Kinda pointless if it's on top of the shirt. That's like tucking your pants into your socks.
