WOOOW!

this reminds me so much of the drawings i did when i was a child - and i still love these weird town things!! 5$
though it's a pity that you've put this very nice illustration inside a box. 3 :(

Krakaboom on Oct 02 '07

Yeah, I really think you should have taken it out of the box - having it sprawl around the shirt would have made it amazing.

I think you should have put a few little people walking around the streets as well.

I've been thinking about a whole-shirted maze design myself for like a year. But yeah, this design would be 100 percent more a-maze-ing (I deserve a life sentence for that one) without the border and maybe flowing around to the back of the shirt. Hey, where's the beginning and ending anyway?

jacksos on Oct 02 '07

It says "start" at the church and "end" at the boat.

AmazingWonderKitten on Oct 02 '07

I'd also really like it without the border. But 4.

iribe on Oct 02 '07

yeah... no box. let it spread over the shirt.

Electric Puppy on Oct 02 '07

5 without box,
but only 3 with the box.

reminds me of one of my fvourite posters ever:
olivetti elettrosumma 22

HugoAraujo on Oct 02 '07

No borders.

jacksos on Oct 02 '07

love the poster!

ANCHORESSE on Oct 02 '07

lose the borders and i'd be impressed. use the shirt color as the background of the illustration, that's why it's there. take a look at http://www.threadless.com/submission/135103/rainbow_heap for how i think you should handle the background. keep it up.

supacool artwork...

enzymatic on Oct 02 '07

colors could have been more interesting, but still its cool.

WEContact on Oct 02 '07

Lose the borders and let it sprawl a bit, let it lose the box shape, and it's a 5$. It's a 4 as is.

mattycakes on Oct 02 '07

I like it a lot

flamingice on Oct 02 '07

That's great, perhaps get rid of the border somehow and i'd buy it!

mramigofosho on Oct 02 '07

NO BORDER

jacksos on Oct 02 '07

Righto. I took off the border and also made a Khaki version, as well as reduced the colors to four. How do I upgrade my design? Or do I have to re-enter it?
New versions at:
sage
khaki

Thanks!

ANCHORESSE on Oct 02 '07

jacksos, i think that is a definite improvement. i still think reworking it create a less "boxy" square would improve it even more (although you'd probably have to redraw it...a pain in the ass). i bumped you up a number. kickass.

yale on Oct 03 '07

love this!

Krakaboom on Oct 03 '07

Definitely looks better without the border, but the bottom half is still very boxy. Sagestone looks good... even though I don't buy shirts in that colour!

Ma-Mich on Oct 03 '07

really reminds me of every little town I have been to in Europe! In which I was getting lost all the time!!! LOVE IT! I need this shirt!

tshirtjunky on Oct 03 '07

nice one. 5!

FVG on Oct 03 '07

No Borders (no nations, stop deportations).

If you incorporate the above suggestions (look at that great posterlink!), I am sure you'll have a winner!

jacksos on Oct 03 '07

I've taken off the borders, you can see here

DeChance on Oct 03 '07

I'm so buying this, and it looks better without the boarders

taproot on Oct 03 '07

Very nice idea! -- I don't think I've seen a maze on a shirt before... This looks much like a Highlights Puzzlemania maze, though...

jacksos on Oct 03 '07

:) - I like to think that the muted colors and the lack of people or "quicksand" dead-ends move it out of the Highlight zone.

ElleNoir on Oct 03 '07

brilliant! it'll be better without the border.

sullysplatter on Oct 04 '07

yeah, really nice. I think it should be available on grey or red.

Yrie on Oct 05 '07

this is great! pleeeeease without the box!

lefrench on Oct 05 '07

no border. just fade off or something.

igo2cairo on Oct 06 '07

Dude, this is amazing! $5 (without border)

bobbi_keng on Oct 07 '07

i liked it when it was in a box, and i like it with the changes you made, to everyone else: it needs that degree of 'boxiness' to give it the idea of being a proper maze -- if i saw the picture going off the page i would assume that the solution could be outside what we can see - and i dont want mazes to do that

i have an idea -- because the paths are white you could include the solution in glow in the dark ink -- that would make it almost invisible -- until you turn off the lights!!!

by the way ... $5
