Personally, I like my well built gladiators to be bookish, but not quite so cozy with one another. ;o)

thanks for the comments!!





ok, so its just 2 Roman soldiers. i designed this from a photograph I had taken while I was in Rome. The middle of the design does get kind of confusing. One soldier is standing behind the other... they're not really touching though.



anyways, I hope you guys still like it :)

I think you're on the right track with this design... Love that they're Roman soldiers, but maybe you could take the premise farther? Like, maybe they're expanding the empire and got lost, and now they're checking their map? I don't know, but as others have stated, it's a little muddled in the middle with the book.



Still, $4!

That makes no sense. The message seems to be 'when in Rome... be a Roman.'



And it'd make even less sense without the title.

this shirt is pretty sweet, i like the red of the cape and head gear. i feel like any other color on top of the brown background would just not be right, but red works. good job!

awesome design well put together...maybe take some black shapes that creeate the shadows on the soldier with his head gear of were the book is overlayed...may help clean up the middle...?

Looks like they're reading a magazine. I kinda interpreted it as a fusion of modern and ancient. If it is that, then maybe give one of them a handbag, and a mobile phone or somethingm maybe an iPod.. if it's not though, ignore what I just said.



The design was done real well, but yeah, the middle gets convoluted.

okay, now i've always known that common roman practice was homosexuality amongst men, so that's what i thought this shirt was about. but after reading comments it's not? i'm confused...
