|
 |
Monkey III on Jun 07 '07 awesome! My money is on the lobster!
|
 |
this turned out great!
|
 |
this rules! i'd like to see it on a different color, though.

zoidberg vs. cobra kai
|
 |
the lobster is totally schooling the cobra.
|
 |
Ste7en on Jun 07 '07 Why is everyone always hating Zoidberg? Great illustration
|
|
Sweet, I love "oddball" stuff like this.
|
 |
... I had to look up Zoidberg, i had no idea what that was referring to... yeah, I don't watch much TV. Everyone seems to think the lobster is winning, but remember the cobra only need to get in one good bite to finish the lobster--if he can get his fangs in there, that is.I think it's a tough call who would win.

 |
$4
|
 |
I think the words at the bottom are unnecisary. but i love the desing.
|
 |
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
|
|
WITH TEXT
|
|
WOOT
|
 |
I think this is an example of an incredibly stupid idea executed extremely well.
Very nice illustration, very odd subject matter. |
 |
I love it and its randomness!
$5 from me! hope it gets printed :) |
|
Excellent graphic quality and good Idea ;)
|
 |
This is Amazing!!!! $5
|
 |
YES. I NEED THIS NOW. $5
|
 |
looks better on yellow!
|
 |
bad_nobe on Jun 07 '07 wow!nice work.
|
 |
Make the font fancier...
$5 |
 |
I GOT $5 ON THE LOBSTER
|
 |
If I ever open a seafood restaurant... I want THAT on the bibs! $5
|
 |
What's with all the pro-lobster action?
I'll take your bets...go Cobra!!! Nice work, man. 5+$ |
 |
mj00 on Jun 08 '07 Really nice linework, I'm in awe. You've really captured the essence of the way each animal moves. (The crest thing works for me, too- I get the feeling like this could be the middle ages equivalent of a cockfight.)
|
 |
dude, i HATE subs like this...
except yours. this is awesome; i love it! |
 |
So glad the shield made it to the final version. Here are your just rewards: $5
|
 |
kooky love on Jun 08 '07 GREAT $5
|
|
This certainly delivers on its promise.
A lobster is indeed squaring off against a cobra. $5. |
|
I would buy this, but part of me would always wish the text were in Latin.
$5. |
|
hey thanks people!!! Your comments are great! It's interesting to see who's rooting for which animal. Maybe I should have admitted this at the outset, but I confess that, as someone living on the East Coast, I'm biased in favour of the lobster. I love lobsters so I've never eaten one. Never eaten a cobra either... but that would just be stupid.

I think this is an example of an incredibly stupid idea executed extremely well. Very nice illustration, very odd subject matter. I could repeat what AM said in a different manner, i could jus cut and paste her response to exaclty how i feel about this. I made my choice, and im happy with it. nice work! |
 |
This has to be printed. Now.
|
 |
Wow .. this is so .. perfect!
5$ .... I like the yellow best .. but i think it would look fantastic on a navy, just a suggestion... |
 |
Its not my kind of thing but i appreciated the work put into it. Its good =]
|
 |
Woo! Go lobster!
|
 |
It's nice to see this finally subbed after all that time in the critiques!
I'd prefer it to be a bit less orangey in over all tone, but it's an awesome design no matter what. |
 |
lobster owns.
|
 |
jimmytan on Jun 08 '07 ya NINJA 5
|
 |
HOLY CRAP!!! Freaking big ass $5!
|
 |
Bisparulz on Jun 08 '07 5$
|
|
yay, thanks people! I'm so happy to find that you enjoy seeing pointless random animal fights as much as I do.
|
 |
bortwein on Jun 08 '07 ooh, lover the color choices. Spot on. 5 for you.
|
 |
ISABOA on Jun 08 '07 sweet - love it 5$
|
 |
ohhh my gosh. this better get printed 5$$$$$$
|
 |
this is hilarious! nicely done
|
 |
Goddamn this is good - and i want to see more random animal vs from you Musk Ox vs Giant snapping turtle?
|
 |
My money's on the cobra.
|
 |
sans scroll and it's a winner. 5
|
 |
jpiatt on Jun 08 '07 this is extremely well done. 5!
|
|
OMFG... I love this design... $5 I would so buy it :D
|
 |
Frickin' awesome fight of the ages!
|
 |
this is SAG
(sick as grits) lololllol Word up. |
 |
I'd wear it!
Lobster... the mongoose of the sea. |
 |
This is freaking cool. Man I want to start an illegal lobster and snake wrestling ring!
|
 |
the lobster's eyes RULE. and it would probably end in a draw because lobsters are pretty slow and cobra fangs probably couldn't pierce a lobster's shell. not like it's an issue but without the text it would be awesome because people would be like "...WHAT THE FUCK!?"
|
|
^^^ True that, double true.
Yeh would make a good emblem for a new house at Hogwarts, the "beat the shit of of Slyverin with lobsters" house. |
|
macko4231, I pretty much agree with you that's how it would go down. I'm so happy people actually like the idea.
|
 |
hi-larious

I don't know why a lobster would fight a cobra... Dude, this is the way the white man uses minorities. He makes them fight for his amusement, then says that paying them makes it okay. 5$ |
|
I mean, have you ever seen life in the lobster ghetto?
|
|
White man keeps 'em in tanks too small for 'em, and ties up their claws...
|
|
^^^ HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHA, LOL
|
 |
grayehound on Jun 11 '07 hard to follow up comments like those. nice illo, tho
|
 |
Great detail, great concept.
|
 |
I love this.
|
|
This could be my new family coat of arms...!
|
 |
I really like the image but I'd really love it if the names were in latin.
|
|
I'm trying to find the critique but can't - what happened to it?
|
 |
oh god i LOVE this. $5
|
|
although the text is redundant.
you could parody the Alien vs predator by putting their tagline "whoever wins we lose" in the scroll instead |
 |
fat pigeon on Jun 12 '07 I love this.
|
|
this is really really really awesome!!! but it would be even more awesome if the text was in some sort of script
|
|
I deleted the critique. Their names in Latin would be something Naja V. Homarus which I thought just looked weird. Phones, I like your idea; someone had suggested something similar in the critiques but it was right after I'd subbed it... but it'd be easy enough to change the banner.
|
 |
The Cobra can't win because it can't penetrate the lobster's shell. The lobster can't win because it's too slow to get the cobra in it's claws.
|
 |
hahah what is this??????? $5
|
|
MooseDinner, you are right. It's the quintessential stalemate.
|
|
I love this! It's amazing. $5
|
|
HELL. YES.
I want to be on you. |
|
I'd like to specify that I think it works best on the deep red.
Also, I like the text in the scroll as it currently is... |
|
Awww, I would have liked to be able to look over all the different versions this went through. :( Why'd you delete it?
Oh and I agree this is best on burgundy. Though it would look cool on navy as well. |
 |
I think it's awesome. The only thing that bothers me is I think the upper lobster claw should be a little thicker and less blade/knife-like. Otherwise, it's excellent.
|
|
The upper lobster claw is turned to the side, so it is narrower, but maybe it shouldn't be quite so narrow.
Sorry Vindemiatrix... I was just cleaning up after myself, didn't think anyone would care to go back and look at the critique. Thanks sooo much for all your wonderful comments everyone!! |
 |
Go cobra!! Year of the snake =D
|
 |
EPIC
5$$$$$$ |
 |
thunderpeel on Jun 14 '07 this is jawesomeness and i want it, particularly on gold $
