This is my submission for Hot Chip loves Threadless. The idea is to find a innovative use for glow ink. After working on this design I actually like the design if it was printed in regular ink. Either way I had fun with this one I hope you like it, at least a little bit.

love this but the placement is iffy. Would like to see it as a wrap around design with some of the fishes on the back and the diver on the fornt with the rest.

it would be cooler if the guy was floating down into the deep instead of standing there like that

I think it would work better as a regular print as well. If you where going to do this glow in the dark I'd add some glow to the suit as well - otherwise it would just look like a disembodied head being attacked by fish in the dark.

Actually that might be quite cool...

I like it. I think it should be placed a little farther up and centered on the shirt.

The design can be placed where ever on the shirt :) I chose the bottom because the diver has sunk to the bottom of the ocean.

Kinda hard to see the face - maybe the window in the helmet should be bigger so we get the terror in his eyes?...

But in the dark, you'll only be able to see the ones with glow ink. Yes?

Damn udolpho is absolutely right. You really got to think when working with glow ink. Adding a glow around the suit is easy. Still it could look cool with a disembodied head, also i guess it depends on how strong the glow ink is. For some reason when doing this design i wasn't picturing myself standing in a pitch dark room more like being outside at night, where the glow ink may stand out and the diver is still visible. Still I like this design better anyways if it were printed in regular ink.

I like it, but I feel like the way the diver is standing is awkward. Maybe if he had his hands over his head, or something, instead of just standing there, since there's such a contrast of terror on his face...

But otherwise, great design. =3

i would like this better if he weren't screaming in impending agony in the glowy version. 8)

oOo neat-o. If it works out with the glow-in-the-dark stuff, way cool. That situation has to be one of my "deepest" fears.
