Love it on the blue!!!

beachflipmode on Nov 07 '07

It looks like it should be a video game. Nice graphic!!

RickHerrera on Nov 07 '07

I like the main image but the background i bothering me. Remove the buildings and you've got a $5 from me.

theurbanraptor on Nov 07 '07

this is awesome!

raintree on Nov 07 '07

the background is kind of distracting, i agree. but amazing shirt nonetheless! $5.

Slippery Jack on Nov 07 '07

Agree on the distracting background . . .

ben hanbury on Nov 07 '07

Made me think of RAMPAGE!

staffell on Nov 07 '07

get rid of the background

Terrestrial_soup on Nov 07 '07

I like the background cause it makes it feel like godzilla or the power rangers

Mesenchyme on Nov 07 '07

Hey everyone! Be sure to check out the high-res versions I've linked below...

With background...

And without...

I was hesitant on the background myself, but decided to let voters see the option, which is easy to take away.

Anyway, hope you're enjoying, and again, check the high res!

I vote for no background. $5.

winkinthecity on Nov 07 '07

i vote for YES background, BUT a subtler color, like a slightly lighter or darker gray than the shirt. imo, it's too plain without it.

Mesenchyme on Nov 07 '07

Good call winkinthecity, with Threadless' new 8-color limit, that's an easy fix. The challenge was keeping it down to 5 colors without making it 'plain,' as you said.

MarthaMouse on Nov 07 '07

I love it, with or without background! $5, print please!

mjackson on Nov 08 '07

this is a keeper for sure! awesome!

qvolt on Nov 08 '07

i like the background
this needs to be printed

cedars on Nov 08 '07

definitely made me smile. nice job!

NanaZizzo on Nov 08 '07

Fantastic! $5!

StevenExists on Nov 08 '07

I LOVE THIS SHIRT! I'll definitely buy it if it is printed. Do whatever you want with the background.

staffell on Nov 08 '07

hmm yeah, it does look bare without the background.

I think perhaps the cityscape needs to be

a) a duller colour to blend in with the shirt a bit more(as suggested)

and b) handdrawn

Mesenchyme on Nov 08 '07

Thanks for all the comments so far guys, I'll link a less prominently featured background once I make it to my home computer. In the meantime, keep the feedback coming, any opinion is welcome, all are taken into consideration!

abeadle on Nov 08 '07

I love the dragon!

Lorilovesyou on Nov 08 '07

this shirt makes me laugh. i like the background. $5.

zoet-the-poet on Nov 08 '07

I do like the buildings, but I agree that they distract from the over-all coolness.

Mesenchyme on Nov 09 '07

Since some have suggested fading to a less prominent background, I wanted to give everyone a chance to see what that would look like.

Here is a link to the Light Blue version.

Here is a link to the Sagestone version.

Hopefully one or both of those works as a compromise, let me know!

queen_of_pop on Nov 09 '07

i want it.
very cool :]

xpertflycatcher on Nov 09 '07

i like sagestone best i think but all r cool, the shadows are nuts!

mjackson on Nov 09 '07

I really like all of them - I especially like the shadow effect. I want one in each tone...$5+

butacaverde on Nov 09 '07

i need this shirt. i LOVE the fact that he's riding on the dog. personally, i like the background, but i'd buy it either way.

FullOfOz on Nov 10 '07

flufhamster on Nov 10 '07

the shadows are dang cool

mithearwen on Nov 11 '07

Spectacular--bright!

helo on Nov 11 '07

I would absolutely love to see this as a comic book cover

GeoDrums on Nov 11 '07

Wow, easy $5 here. Print please!

no_allegiances on Nov 12 '07

Great idea, but definitely agree with the above, killing the background with make this a $5 for me.

Pangmasterjayj on Nov 12 '07

I would vote for no background. But if the background's in it there might some spots near the bottom concerning perspective that could be touched up like the crosswalk on the left and the where the dragon's relation to the building on the right. Otherwise I really like it! I love how dynamic it is!

TeaTime on Nov 12 '07

no background, but awesome.

thehw on Nov 12 '07

I do like the background. I think it adds to the shirt which looks pretty bare without it. Kudos on the design. I'd sport it.

acstratton on Nov 13 '07

$5 great design!!!

RobinHood on Nov 13 '07

The hose seems a bit static to me. Love the concept though.

Mesenchyme on Nov 13 '07

Thank you to everyone who's commented, I appreciate the feedback and don't mind the compliments, hah. Well, here's hoping Threadless takes an interest, background or not!

trimer7676 on Nov 13 '07
