About my design
by jrmasm   
As a kid, every Saturday I would get up, have a huge bowl of cereal (Sugar Smacks, usually) and hope that this was the morning that the Raod Runner finally got his due...unfortunetly I'm still waiting, but no less optimistic.

As always, thanks for taking the time to look, vote and if so inclinded leave comments.

I like the yellow, it fits with the way Warner Bros. used to design and color the cartoon.

Yeah, I'm a HUGE toon fan.

crazysteven
crazysteven on May 28 '07
so....uh...this might seem like complete bullshit but...
most of my ideas come to me right before i go to sleep at night.
that's not the bullshit part, this is:
about 2 weeks ago i was laying there and it popped into my head. the coyote finally catches the roadrunner. and i'll make the characters realistic. i even got out of bed to write it down so i would remember the idea.

needless to say i just scratched that idea off of my "to design" list.

which means i just 5'd and "i'd buy it" for this one.
because i seriously am going to buy this for the sake of buying. oh, and because you probably pulled this idea off better than i would have.

congrats on a future sale.

LetterGhost on May 28 '07
this is fantastic! (but I have to admit the coyote's ears are bugging me... The further ear is twice as big as the closer ear)
jrmasm
   jrmasm on May 28 '07
Thanks for all the comments.

Crazy- I hate when that happens.
Letter-The close ear I was trying to foreshorten, didn't look odd till you mentioned it. Now I admit it kind of does.

gorgeous... rework the roadrunners head, I read the feathers on his head as a short stubby beak, took me a minute to "find" the face. Beside that 5$ because what you just described sounds so similar to what I remember as a kid.

fun concept with a quality execution

I'm glad you included the roller skates :)

here's an image of Wile E Coyote using an ACME product to finally catch the Road Runner

( I loved it when the coyote put on that green suit that allowed him to fly around)

Print, please! I'm gonna buy it!

And, I bet it'll sell out quickly and have people begging to have it reprinted.

It better get printed in the first place, though.
hogboy
   hogboy on May 29 '07
When I was at college one of the teams did an animation in 3d Max (rendered in cartoon reyes) of a scene where the Coyote finally catches Road Runner, funny as hell.... This isnt something I'd buy personally but it is a great idea, I love the organic execution & it looks like something that would get printed & sell well on threadless.

KHowe101 on May 29 '07
Ok, not a huge fan of the colour, but I don't know what alternative you would use. Love the style and how it differs from much of what threadless prints.

The bird's head confused me a bit (couldn't tell which direction it was looking). Other than that... AMAYYYYZING!
unspeakable
unspeakable on May 30 '07
not sure if i totally dig the color scheme or bird's confusing head (its crest looks kinda like its beak)... but besides that, holy cow, this is fantastic.
FRICKINAWESOME
FRICKINAWESOME on May 30 '07
Really clever design, althoug i wish there was the smallest word bubble "Meep." coming out of the realistic road runner's mouth, but i'd know that would ruin what you are going for. Still, very nice job on the realism and fun of the colors and concept.

I always love this kind of cartoon/comic idea. Like the one of Batman with real animals before...
madruga
madruga on May 30 '07
OH MY! FANTASTIC! $5!

The only problem IMO is the bird head... it took me a while to figure were it was facing.
Degazio
Degazio on May 30 '07
Very good animal anatomy, did you copy from pictures? Either way awesome idea. I'd buy it.
jrmasm
   jrmasm on May 30 '07
wow. thanks for all the comments.
Degazio-Yes-I use photo references, not copy them mind you, but I admit I can't draw a realistic road runner from memory.
Syrasha
Syrasha on May 30 '07
Ha! Awesome idea! I love the realistic look, so neat! I love the rollerskates, too. I echo the above regarding the bird's head, the coyote's ear, and I'd like to add something about the coyote looking a little bored, he seems to have such an impassive look on his face, as if he doesn't even know what's going on. At least a sparkle in his eye would be great. Also the pile of birdseeds looks like a rock or maybe sand. But honestly, this could win just the way it is. =)

onli4
onli4 on May 31 '07
I think the bird's head is a bit confusing at first, maybe because the "crown" (or is it called "crest" ?) looks somehow like the beak.

But then, if you know that cartoon you'll remember that innocent look of the bird. :)

I really love this!
blandford
blandford on May 31 '07
the bird is FINE the way it is.
great job.

would it be too corny/obvious to add a "free bird seed" sign?
great just as it is, though.

The first version, had that sign, but for some reason, it didn't make the final.

It is called "Little Bird Bee-bee" overhere in Chinese. That "bee-bee" refers to it's sound.
I watched it like on every Saturday when I was a kid. Sweet! :D

resub this with the roadrunner's head in more of a profile position and without the small sand clouds at the base of its feet

it was hard for me to see that the roadrunner was looking
straight at me and the sand clouds look more solid than
wispy
