About my design
by WanderingBert   
Did you know that in Australia cowboys ride giant kangaroos? Neither did I until I drew this.

Only uses 3 colours.

Nice! Love the sketchy background and how everyone who looks at your shirt will feel like they're about to lassoed by Australia.

Also,

PRINT WANDERINGBERT!

Ha ha ha ha! This is some funny s#@t from an Aussie perspective! The roo is well executed, and the sketchiness of Uluru is a good technique to set it in the background. Pity that there is a luxury resort right about where the roo-riding cowboy is... Now I'm tired from lassooing crocs on my roo, so I'm gonna head to the pub for a coldie with my cobbers.

i agree. a boomerang would be more Australian than a lasso
and maybe a joey in the kangaroos pouch?
nice work on the roo though

Thanks everyone! I thought about having a boomerang, but considering it was traditionally an Aboriginal hunting tool I thought it idn't quite fit. Having said that, I could always add in a boomerang and put it in a holster on his belt if anything came of this design.

Funny concept. I love the rough scribbles next to the smooth lines, very unique style. Great choice of earthy colors and rugged textures to help support and convey the outback experience. $5

Octadecapus should have scored way higher than it did. However, it's too much fun and only one color, so I'm predicting a print.

love this sooo much.im an aussie too.dont change it to a boomerang...coz that takes away the cowboy perspective and just makes it a guy riding a kangaroo holding a boomerang.i love how you did uluru aswell. $5

I agree with Tine, stick with the lasso - he's a cowboy! If he was all Aussie he'd be a Jackaroo & you'd have to change the name.

I love the background, I wish the characters had a similar feel. Funny idea.

Screw the boomerang, what he needs is a big-ass "knoife". As a Australian who's visited the amazing Uluru, I totally get a kick outta this design.

Why oh why have you not been printed yet?!

i like uluru but not convinced by your kangaroo. the face seems more dingo than skippy, who is kind of too big for my liking. the idea has legs though.

@ auxocrome - before you ask, yes, melbourne born.
