TOSOMB on Nov 25 '09 Great!
|
 |
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh ... I really love this! I'd buy this in a heartbeat, but would Disney cry "foul" & accuse you of taking credit for their ideas. I think this is very original & wonderful, but I'd rather ask the question now to give this great shirt idea a chance. Good luck. 5$

queenmob on Nov 25 '09 I really think its a great idea and I think it might get away with this style - I think I have actualle seen some shirts in this "old disney animation style" on threadless..... great work!
|
 |
ginetteginette on Nov 25 '09 it really annoys me when people claim this style is copyrighted by disney or something. please learn some animation history! all cartoons done by several different studios were in this style during the twenties and thirties. it doesn't belong to disney! hmph!
--- this is a great design! |
 |
Woot's Finding Technicolor and threadless's keepin' it real basically touch on this same theme and same style.
You can't copyright a style, yes. But the fact that this same idea has been done multiple times with the same style, and printed, does certainly imply that it printing again over more original work would be a true shame. |

davidfromdallas on Nov 25 '09 This is so well done. The characters and colors are incredible.
|
 |
FRICKINAWESOME on Nov 25 '09 haha, I agree this doesn't copyright on Disney, I also agree with DFD saying this is very well done, and i continue to agree with adder that Wanderingbert's "finding technicolor" and to a certain extent Sam's Keeping it simple have gone over this territory before, but i really really enjoy thismad scientist take on the concept.

Chengui on Nov 25 '09 It seems to me that this would have been an EXCELLENT design for the Throwback challenge, no?

wotto on Nov 26 '09 This is graet but I think Woot's Finding Technicolor nailed this theme, hopefully I am wrong :)

brainrust on Nov 26 '09 G'day folks, sorry I took so long to jump in! Busy day. I'm convinced copyright isn't an issue. Even if I'd copied actual vintage characters (which I didn't), they'd be out of copyright by now (except The Mouse because he's a registered trademark, or so I believe). I tracked down the other two designs that were mentioned, and I'm a bit disappointed I guess; it'd be okay if they were bad designs but they're both good! Maybe there's room for one more on the theme. After all, there's always room for more pirates, pandas and penguins! I'll have to try for really bizarre ideas, maybe. Oxygen deprivation might help... Thanks for all the comments!

 |
WanderingBert on Nov 26 '09 Even though it's similar to my old design, I think you've done a great job with this. I can see it getting both a high score and getting printed.
|
|
wotto on Nov 26 '09 Actually I may have been wrong, that design was at woot! and it sold really well so why wouldn't threadless print this? They'd be mad not to. For the record I 5ed this.
|
 |
Wow! That's really cool! I love the concept and the illustration too!
|
|
brainrust on Nov 26 '09 For the record: hm087ster and timpaint get the blame for making me stick with the title (you happy with that hm087ster? Are ya?)
Sorry I missed your Travel II design WanderingBert, but it got a strong score so I don't feel too bad! I have no idea how people keep up with the designs just on Threadless without even thinking about the other sites! |

roadkill3d on Nov 29 '09 old theme, new approach, cool design!
|
|
brainrust on Nov 29 '09 Thanks for all the thumbs up!
sp3spx/White Eraser: I know the model is a bit creepy but all the non-creepy ones I interviewed were in colour. Boycey: I 'admit' I like 3D and Pixar but the old stuff was just so fun and visually inventive, like "Steamboat Willie", "Felix" and "Krazy Kat" (comic strip). They didn't let consistency and pseudo-physics get in the way of a good laugh. professorE/roadkill3d (and others): Thanks for the vote of confidence from folks who've seen the theme done before (I'm still amazed that so many people know about a similar design from ages ago on another site!). Based on that, I shall now pursue a series of Panda designs. Maybe. |
