Ok, two things first off:
-This is the first design that I intend to promote.
-I realize that it would be more realistic if I gave the musicians two (visible) legs apiece, but I do not agree that it would add to the idea or the overall visual appeal.
-I'm excited about this one, so obviously if people have good suggestions I want to hear them. Anyway, all real comments are appreciated as always.
-I don't have much else to say about this one, it's been a concept in my head for about a month now, so a couple days ago I sat down and set about finally doing it. I'm pretty satisfied with how it came out, it's quite close to how I imagined it.

I think it would add to the overall visual appeal if they all have two legs, because as it is, it distracts. I am thinking - are they one-legged musicians? I expect them to get up and start hopping around on one leg. You did a nice job on the execution - very clean and professional. I also think the guy eating the sub is funny. It reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when George was trying to combine sex, tv and food.

Well done bu the chap in the middle, his leegs look a little e-longated. Does he have rubber legs?

Sorry, i just got a little silly then.

I like the concept but I think the musicians would benefit from extra legs to bring them in line with the rest of the three-dimensional appearance of their bodies. Maybe the head on the far right (closest?) musician is a little big too.

I agree with the leg thing, and I don't think it'd be that hard to just add them. I'll give it a 4 as is, though. Because I like it.

aw, this is hilariously cute!

even a hint of two feet on each of them would help if you don't want to do two legs (like on the conductor). the middle guy's leg(s) DEFINITELY has to be fixed though.. his thigh is oddly longer than his calf.

but yeah, really great idea!

see, this is why I posted this image in my profile BEFORE submitting it, to get comments like this, before realizing nobody could be bothered to point out problems then...

it's the dude from subway!!

sorry, i just had to. but i don't really like this shirt.

thats probably the cleverest (not a word) shirt Ive seen in a while..

I Love it lots :)
5$

Admitting that you recognize a problem but don't want to change it doesn't help a thing. Give the guys second legs, honestly.

I didn't admit that it was a problem, you misunderstand. I simply said that I recognize some people might take issue with it... now seeing the comments I'll probably change it though, dammit.

Well, I do try to leave time in everyday to look at your profile just in case you put something up there for my perusal . . .

At any rate, this made me giggle, but please give them two legs and I'll buy this up so fast.

Don't say that. I gave you a fair amount of info about this design.

My final thoughts.. the black figures look much better than the shirts that have white figures. Of the 3 musicians, the middle one's knee still needs fixed, and the far right musician's is a little big.

Nevertheless, I liked this from the beginning, and the processing and changes only improve the design.

Man I am so bad at typing sometimes. I also wish there was an EDIT button.

maliceinwonderland:

cleverest is a word.


**just a thought: if cleverest is the most clever, is everest the most ever?

This design has potential. the figures look a little clipart-ish. Actually that look really clipart-ish. The concept and execution are both excellent.

thanks kevin, I didn't mean you, your comments were very helpful. Thanks to everyone who has commented so far.

id buy it.

I like the concept, but I don't like the art.

I didn't notice the legs not being there.

Good concept, could benefit from two legs apeice, and it's missing that special something.

Any advice on how to add that something? I'm open to ideas...

I love it as is.

I was really hoping for a 3+ on this but I guess the "add 2 legs" thing really sank that ship... oh well. I'm gonna resubmit this thang.

If you didnt even mention the thing about the 2 legs, I wouldn't even notice it. I think it is fine how it is now
