About my design

by BrandonB11
Wanted to try a few things here. A seemingly simple idea and a design that would make the person seeing the shirt have to take a second glance to possibly understand the concept. Also wanted to try out a new type of linework that I do not usually do. And I wanted to make a shirt about blackjack that isnt too blatent that I would like to wear.



And if you do not get it, if you add up all the cards it comes out to a 22 which is a bust in blackjack and the order that the cards are in for anyone that knows anything about blackjack would know how frustrating a hand like this would be.



Enjoy!

Doesn't look at all bad on the shirt, but the concept itself doesn't interest me that much.

5: I really like it - and yes, I 'get' it...grrr! ; )

$: I'd buy it on any color, but dark green (think table felt) would be groovy.

Maybe it's just me, but I thought you were trying to put a bust on people's bust. Thought that was kinda clever, even if it was unintentional.

I thought that if you got 5 cards in a row without busting it was called a fortress and you win...

yep thats true. thats a fortress up to the ace. the dealer doesnt hit past five...

im worried that its just gonna look like a shirt with cards on it, and not a bust on blackjack.

nah there are no five card charlies in some casinos... at least not in the ones i play in... they'll let u keep hitting till u bust adn then they can take ur money

A 5 card trick will beat 21 only if it doesn't bust.

i like the shirt! people who don't get need to watch WPT. I like the name too, thought it was something else when it read "bust"

i kinda like to bust in my gf's face

i think there are worse ways to get a bust that doesn't have 6 cards.

I've always wanted a blackjack-themed shirt, as I used to work with a counting team back in the day. I don't think this is it though. Keep at it!

I like how the bust is on a woman's bust. Put this shirt on Pamela Anderson and my red rocket would be impossible to hide!

Next time use a better looking girl as your model, that girl you used looks like an uptight bitch, she doesn't even look like she would be into poker.

BrandonB11 on Nov 19 '07

and i know whata jerk for not looking like she likes poker with a shirt about blackjack

just an idea....to make it less like a poker hand, y not have two identicle cards on it i.e. make the 2 Dimonds into a 2 Spades....Might have to rearrage to maintain colour sequence.

I didn't get it without reading your explanation... it has a limited appeal, I suppose. It's still a great idea though and I like it, so good luck.
