Great illustrations! I personally think just leaving the names of the owls and not using the bottom text.

Oh, but could you lower it a little bit so the top owl is not so close to the collar?

Very clever and well done. I, unlike some of the others, like the fig 5. text. I also agree (with Willish) that the design needs to be lower on the shirt.

I only wish you had included some social theorists, such as michel foucowl. :)

keep the text. it needs it.
schoog
schoog on May 17 '08
actually i have an idea about the text... what if i were all one sentence? not "with owls" separate. i think it would flow better and actually be funnier. the separate "with owls" is sort of... i dont know, it looks maybe less professional? that's not the word i mean. just that the shirt is beautifully planned out and illustrated, and that short phrase, for me, takes away from that.

I $5'd it 'cause I'd have to throw myself of a hillock if I didn't, but I do think it wants a different shirt color. Badly.
BaronVonMonkey
   BaronVonMonkey on May 18 '08
Hey guys, thankyou all for your comments!



Schoog: The "with owls" bit was supposed to be a bit of a non sequitur, hence the separate sentences. But I'm willing to defer to popular opinion!



Same goes for shirt colour- it works on any light colour, so I'm open to other suggestions

Fabulous rendering. Great concept. You could lose the bottom title or keep it but don't lose the names. $5 Whatever.

The text is okay, but take out the "with owls" bit. It's self explanatory that they're owls and having the text "with owls" as well kind of bangs you on the head with it...

(Otherwise, $5)

OMG Most awesome tee EVER. Please print this on black!!!!



Oh, and leave the text- it's perfect :) Also please leave the "With owls." That is what makes it so funny.



I agree the placement could be a tiny bit lower though.
TheHedgewolf
TheHedgewolf on May 19 '08
So instead of "Who! Who!" Its be more like a thoughtful, concise "Why?"

actually , I have always thought of Marx as more of a Barn Owl.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys- last day for these hooters, comrades!
