WanderingBert on Mar 07 '08

This umpteenth collab between WanderingBert and Frickinawesome proves that nothing looks worse in the design world than a bunch of clashing colors, both hue-wise and attitude-wise. Only if the compliments are true are they worth saying to your fellow artists/friends/lovers/drawing utensils!

This is great. Really fun. Loving the presentation style for your last few subs.

nonolarson on Mar 13 '08

Sweet, love the halftones... and the model :p

Sunshine69 on Mar 13 '08

This is wonderful!

wotto on Mar 13 '08

great concept

DaniellesGarden on Mar 13 '08

Im glad the primaries arent conversing, with eachother we would have a real debate on our hands(shirts) then.

You know that wasnt much funnier the second time either..

anyway, great concept, and execution.

Maltzmania on Mar 13 '08

shakethesheets on Mar 13 '08

nice... love the bubble texture.

J-Ray on Mar 13 '08

lol @ daniellesgarden

SoulfumeInc on Mar 13 '08

this is awesome! I know its really minor, but one of the details I really like is how you knocked out the edges so the shirt shows through, instead of a heavy black outline on everything.

pointless comment, i know. but this is awesome!

lunchboxbrain on Mar 13 '08

love it, gents! 5

supposedly on Mar 13 '08

This is splendid.

t4sh4 on Mar 13 '08

Raid71 on Mar 13 '08

great texture in the speech bubbles, nice hand written font

J-Ray on Mar 13 '08

Funny.. I like the shadow effect on the bubbles and the writing.

chelly on Mar 13 '08

reminds me of the olli_rudi shirt, but more cartoony

Pizazz on Mar 13 '08

Great job guys! Quite awesome!

FRICKINAWESOME on Mar 13 '08

Thanks so much for the comments and compliments so far guys! I agree with everyone regarding the fabulous job WanderingBert did with the half-tones and word bubbles.

Chelly, the only similarity I see between this sub and "Tools of the Trade" is that they both feature drawing supplies.

theurbanraptor on Mar 13 '08

WHOA, THIS IS AN EXCELLENT IDEA!

Gigguli on Mar 13 '08

Greato! 5!!!

biotwist on Mar 13 '08

Vibrant Inc. on Mar 13 '08

SteveOramA on Mar 13 '08

great idea, nice halftones, and the model pic is kinda funny!

Laser Bread on Mar 13 '08

Looks great, I like that the type is handwritten and doesn't resort to using a font that looks handwritten. Awesome! $5

cristinaish on Mar 13 '08

Pixtoons on Mar 13 '08

kooky love on Mar 14 '08

GREAT $5

radiostaticstar on Mar 14 '08

idan the crayon cracks me up...

missleo on Mar 14 '08

Really cute

Jessica L on Mar 14 '08

cute! i think this would be great for an adult or kid shirt -- because they're at a cocktail party (adult), but they're crayons and stuff (kiddy). so, it would be funny to see a kid wearing this shirt that looks childish but then has all the grown-up compliments on it :-)

lemonalle on Mar 14 '08

super duper! and lol at crayon-head dan

igo2cairo on Mar 14 '08

Sweet! Great concept and design, looks awesome on the shirt. 5$

Andreas Mohacsy on Mar 14 '08

awesome - actually works a lot better off of the shirt but it's great anyways, i have seen the concept before, possibly by you, but not this well exectued

ilsung on Mar 14 '08

lovvee the halftones.

againstbound on Mar 14 '08

those speech bubbles made me speechless, another great collab

chelly on Mar 14 '08

it was a compliment

KDLIG on Mar 14 '08

Awesome! $5

Ginger_Snapz on Mar 14 '08

LOL DaniellesGarden! Super punny.

I agree with all the love expressed for the texture and the handwritten design of the speech bubbles.

I also love that the quotes are appropriately directed--the paintbrush gets the compliment on her hair and the ultra fine point Sharpie receives a compliment on weightloss. An overall feel-good shirt.

sierragrace on Mar 14 '08

my favorite pun ever! $5

slaterock on Mar 14 '08

perfect! Excellent job guys! The style goes perfectly with the idea.

auxocrome on Mar 14 '08

I said it before and I'll say it again: this is pure gold sunshine lollipop rainbow cunnilingus AND puppy awesomeness on a tee. It must be printed!!1

$5.

auxocrome on Mar 14 '08

Also, sudden thought: I do like this on Creme, but I'd be interested to see what it looks like on Grey/Silver/whatever the kids calling it these days or even Heather Grey...

SupremeNinja on Mar 15 '08

I would love to have one, print please !

walmazan on Mar 15 '08

I want 2 tees for me!, congratulations $5

roadkill3d on Mar 15 '08

nice collab again guys!

MadIron on Mar 15 '08

$5 of course. Very good execution.

My cousin actually used the "you have nice teeth" line on a girl at a bar once.

It didn't work.

SheepMan22 on Mar 15 '08
