Cart Overcoming Insanity (AKA "The designer blues")
About the design
Alrightie, my second attempt here. I find that when I get designers block, I freak out. I go insane. Thi s is symbolized by the kiddie pool, the gloves and scarf, and the partial nudity. I find that music is the best way to clear the mind, and then fill it with pristine ideas. This is symbolized by the headphones and mp3 player (obviously). With regards to the colors, I wanted a design that could be placed on just about any color shirt, and still look decent. I think this design does a pretty good job of that. I also think it's amazing at the color interactions going on. Try out all the different colors, and look as the blue changes color. Color theory is amazing:|

Autodafe

great design, concept, everything. one thing that always gets me with t-shirts is creative placement. Try fooling around with the placement. Then I still wouldn't buy it but I'd give it a five.

Someone likes showing themselves naked...you any relation to Stephan Sagmeister? Good illustration, though I rarely take kindly to people who hide hands and faces in their life drawing. Unique idea, but I just don't know if it's somethingt I'd see someone wearing.

grayehoud, I originally planned on including hands, but with the scarf, I thought mittens would go well with it. And, the face thing is just a style preference. But I understand your comment, and will keep that in mind for the next go-round.

....Intresting. I rather like it. I'm not shure If I could see myself wearing it, but it's a cute idea anyhoo...

This would be so random to wear without the context of the 'designer blues' competition to explain it, but that could be fun in its own way.
slaterock
I'm finding this competition very difficult to enapsulate in a design. You don't want to be too cliche, but not too abstract. It's a challenge, but I've got one more chance after this baby. Thanks for the crits and comments everyone!

I love it, I don't know why. I think it's the duck. You get a buy, my friend.
becker513
haha this would be awesome if instead of the scarf and gloves you just had the guy wearing some of those arm swimmies and maybe have a floataion raft around his waste
Newbie
This is funny and freaky at the same time which makes it Freakin' Funny!!! well done great illustration!
Remster
Hehe, this is a nice contribution to the contest, I think it's very original.
The only crit I have is that his left leg seems too short, because you show part of his upper foot, but that's only nitpicking, really.
Desenchantee
I don't think I'd wear it, but somehow I love it. I think it's just so crazy that you have to like it. Good job!
princessfifi
love it, but i wouldn't wear it... might wear it if you got him something other than tighty whities to wear... maybe some lovely heart print boxers.
kidsanim8
great illustraion.. i'd like to see some facial detail though. A look of consternation or concentration. Otherwise..pretty sweet overall
bulletsdontargue

cat_harp548

Ha, thats absolutely mint. I think its better without the "designer blues" title. While reading the other coments I've been thinking about wether I'd actually wear it and I've come to the conclusion that i might, or might not, maybe i would though, im not quite sure.
It is class though.

Other than that the pool could look more "pool-like", I love it. Fivenbuy. Also, I like it on natural best.
megggan
