About my design

by soojay
My dad is the king of old jokes, which he passed on to me. I thought a great way to showcase old jokes on a shirt would be to put yourself behind the mic; in this case, a vintage mic that the old comics loved to stand behind. The mic is all hand-drawn to give it a less mechanical feel, and something more human. The back has the phrase "Stop Me If You've Heard This Before", again all hand drawn, and there's a tomato to finish the design, the ultimate way to show your feelings about an old joke. I hope you like, this one was fun.

Thanks Alex. The small size doesn't do the type justice, it's actually a lot less jaggedy. I really need to learn flash so I can show several images in one preview.

Great use of both sides of the h=shirt for the concept. Before I scrolled down and saw the tomato etc, wasn't too keen, but that sold me.

why the heck would he put 'ready to sing'? how does that have anything to do with a joke?

I like this, btw.

I scratched my head on that one, too. For a while I was pondering no back to the shirt, but then the joke idea was lost completely.

Amazing mic detail, but i don't really see the appeal of a mic in the middle of my tee even though your story is lots of fun and very heart-felt. Maybe with a bunch of tomatos and fruit smashed against a brick wall behind the mic?
