i didnt get it before i read the description. i thought it was one of those old film rolls
|
 |
thats really quite good. good work man!!! seriously, i like it!!!
|
|

|
 |
ivejustquitsmoking on Jul 25 '08 smart still. like the idea:)
|
 |
well, i wouldn't wear it
|
 |
Awesome idea and drawing...I would just make the chamber a little smaller as long as you could still read the bullet.
Well Done! |
 |
I missed V2 in the critiques, but I wouldn't have suggested any more changes anyway. I'm anxious to see how this fares. It looks good!
|
 |
a bit emo, no?
|
 |
Yes BigODrummer, the chamber might be too big if look at it on the t-shirt. A bit smaller could be the answer.
|
 |
i still think this is a clever idea

FRICKINAWESOME on Jul 25 '08 I actually got this quite quickly, it's a good representation of the message you are going for. It's just not something i think this site would be interested in printing, but what do i know? lol. Once again, i feel you accomplished what you wanted to impart on me after viewing it for only a moment.

Very powerful statement. I could totally see a health teacher wearing this to school when they have to tell 5thy graders about puberty.
No offense, but i don't see this shirt getting printed. This would look way better on a color tee. |
|
It's great to see t-shirts with attention to this, though many people are living with HIV for far longer than previously (in the US, at least). I understand your message and like the design, but disagree with the unquestioned connection between HIV and death.
|
|
Yes, you have a point cosmical, in the western world you can live a long and happy life even if you were carrying the virus. But in the third world it things are greatly different. Due to the simple fact of lack of medicine and treatment.

i didn't get it either til i read the description. Eye opening. it's bringing a subject front and center that some people don't like to decuss. $5
|
 |
i love it! the design is great no matter what the explanation...
my only question...are you 100% positive about the size and placement of the design on the front and back... the full concept may get lost when women wear it cuz of the "chest area" and the gun in the back may be completely covered if someone has long hair. that's my only question. otherwise $5!! |
|
Yes, someone also pointed out the size issue. And what you said is also true. The cylinder might be a bit too big in the front. Espcially with women :) So the placement and the size need a bit more fine adjusting.
This is my first submission so thank you for all the comments! |

I prefer black too. I would definitely buy this shirt

a bit emo, no? Actually, it is not at all "emo". The message is that "not protecting yourself during sex can be dangerous", not "I'm a teenager with the same problems as everyone else, but instead of figuring it out myself or asking for help I just cut myself in the dark". Stop being so generic. |
|
^ Wait, captbaka, I just looked at your profile and realized you're hot. I take back what I said. Can we be friends?

Great shirt and powerful message! The only thing I would modify is the HIV on the bullet (make it larger). Like others, at first I thought it was a film reel versus a gun chamber.

About my design
The first connection between those two words that comes to mind is HIV. We often play russian roulette with our lives.
The cylinder is placed in front of the t-shirt. A small revolver is printed at the back of the t-shirt on the upper back near the neck. The design can be produced on white or black. Though I prefer black.
