 |

platinum on Apr 09 '08 definitely wrap around, nice illustration!!!
|
 |
Wrap it! $5!
|

That's a 50's style bathing suit on the flag woman, while the other woman in the background is wearing 30's style clothes.
link textlink to a visual history of the bathing suit |
|
 |
^I guess the flag woman was ahead of her time!
|
 |
I LOVE it, but please don't hide all of the people on the back! Could you make the chest placement a smidge bigger? Or maybe a lower placement with the entire scene on the front but the end of the car/smoke wrapping around?
|
 |
I like the way it wraps around the t-shirt, i think this would be something to buy my bf! Keep up the good work...
|
|
I like shakethesheets' idea quite a bit.
|
 |
yoshi andrian on Apr 09 '08 really nice illustration.
|
 |
they chest placement is the way to go. this is ace. 5
|
 |
Super!!! 5!
|
 |
FRICKINAWESOME on Apr 09 '08 The flag seems a little stiff in her hands, or is that just me after staring at that ankle-showing bathing gymnasium she's wearing? Rawr! Anywho, love everything about this but that, and I might like the wrap-around if a bit more of the cars was shown on the front and the thing was bumped up in size about 30 percent. Fun stuff!
|
 |
chest only! 5
|
|
Thanks everyone! FA you always have great comments, about making it bigger i wanted to but can a design overlap both side seams? I made it as big as possible to show enough of the cars on the front without overlapping both seams.
|
 |
I really like this, but I agree that the clothing should be era-correct. Is the white cloud/thing behind the vehicles supposed to be smoke or mountains? It's a little ambiguous.
|
 |
Yay It is up! It's looking Cool! Way to go Eric!
|
 |
are you kidding sunshine? of course that is smoke!!

steven218 on Apr 10 '08 nice job, i like it a lot
|
 |
littleclyde on Apr 10 '08 Nice! Love the drawing style you're using on this and the last sub. The people are my favorite!
|
 |
Flying Mouse on Apr 10 '08 Nice sketchy style!
|
|
Thanks to everyone for commenting, there are a lot of mixed feelings about the placement but as long as you guys like it!
|
 |
d3d on Apr 10 '08 i like the wrap version. nice work.
|
 |
wrap it up!
|
 |
i tink it would work better on another colour shirt to carry out the vintage old fashioned feeling. probably natural?
|
 |
The cars look superb!
|
 |
wrap around is more interesting
|
 |
I love it! Agree though about the flag girl. It would be a lot better if she was in a period outfit though.
|
|
This is wicked. I like the wraparound $5. You could maybe lose the numbers on the cars.

DaleEdwin on Apr 10 '08 Wrap around looks great on the T. 5
|

|
 |
i know very little about art on Apr 11 '08 $5 for wrap around!
|
|
Thanks again everyone, i'm glad to see so many people like it!
|
|
there shouldn't be massive amounts of exhaust coming out of a stationary car. it makes it look like its moving, when it hasn't even begun the race yet.
|
|
The origins of burnouts can be traced to drag racing, where they have a practical purpose: drag racing tyres perform better at higher temperatures, and a burnout is the quickest way to raise tyre temperature immediately prior to a race.

Solid concept and style.
|
|
I like it, but I think the flag girl is out of place...just imho
|
|
Wrap around.
|
|
Oh and a little larger?
|
|
illustration is super! I gave it 5 ~! :)
|
 |
Nice illustration. I think I would prefer khaki myself. And I think wrap around wins by a nose.
|
 |
thunderpeel on Apr 12 '08 nice! i like the wrap around version
|
|
i can't decide if I like it or not because of the thing moving.
|
|
Thanks everybody! Surtsey1 please look here for a stationary version.
|
 |
i like the wrap around. :)
|
 |
Agree with shakethesheets' wraparound idea... I'd like to see the people on the front.
|
 |
Me too. Nice design!
|
 |
excellent snapshot. a perfect moment captures more than just the moment and this does it well.
|
 |
wrap it x]
|
|
Here is a link to a version with an older style bathing suit.
|
 |

|
 |
dacat on Apr 16 '08 Love the old school graphics $5
|
|
very old fashioned, i like the cameraman
|
 |
Yeah, I think it's wrapping on the wrong side. Shakethesheets is right.
Funny how Threadless voters can give you a history of fashion but not tell you what era tha cars or camera come from. Or maybe they're correct, I wouldn't know either way. But we're here for the clothes, right? |
|
