About my design
by azrielen   
Inspired by the project title, June's music, and these lyrics from "Thank You For The Venom" by My Chemical Romance:

"Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal /
And you never had a chance /
Love it, or leave it, you can't understand /
A pretty face, but you do so carry on, and on, and on..."

My first entry into one of these "Loves" competitions. I must say, this one has made me a June fan, tho! Good times!

"If you talk any faster...everything will fall apart."

Also want to add, can be in any color. There are three colors in the design. If you put it on a dark green shirt, think green tones. Red shirts? Think pinks! Etc....

I didn't know they passed the "Loves" entries right into the In The Running category. Wow. Either that or someone is up doing submission acceptances at midnight, cause this got passed thru FAST. Haha.

It looks a little like she has a beard... but it only took a second or two to register that it was hair coming down in the back or something, and not side-show facial hair. I really like the color choices.

I hate my Chemical Romance...so very much...But that has nothing to do with this.

I like the design, does look a bit like she has a beard..not so much though..the design is very very nice, i like it a lot..I think if the hair in the back was just a little darker, it will make it a little better
the colours work nicely though

good work

Hahaha side-show facial hair. Love that.

i think its a pretty cool design and the s and m elements will appeal to the goths. $4

Interesting that she has an S&M thing in her mouth. Made me giggle a little bit.

I was conflicted about the ball gag. Shouls I or shouldn't I go there, I asked myself. Then I said, to heck with it! ball gags, yay!

YES! Sweet shirt. That S&M ball thing reminds me of those 50’s pinup mags, er not that I’ve actually OWNED any of those things - I’ve only seen them… I mean a friend of mine saw them…once…crap.
cool shirt though.

<3 My Chemical Romance, the shirt is okay.

Hehe woot MCR! Gotta love a band that thinks ballerinas, choreographed dancers, death, and lots of makeup make for great videos...which surprisingly, it does!

Anyway, thanks for the comments on the shirt. Yeah, now that I think about it, darkening the colors in the lettered layer would be an improvement. Maybe even adding another color to the design, making it 4 total, and giving the back "hair" some depth and variation.

Am I reading it weird or does the June competition only have one winner instead of three places like the others have?

kinda makes me think of ghosts...and bondage...which doesn't really make that much sense if you really think about it...how do you bind a ghost?


anyways not bad~

I worry that the ball gag is a bit much for some. Would ba a sgame to loose because June thinks it's too intense for them to sell or something. Hmmm. Maybe I'll do a tamer version. That feels like I'm selling out on the design tho. Grr. I hate these dilemas.

Anyway, you want to see different colors? I'll make some up and post them on here. Any specific comboa you want to see what they look like?

I really like this. The ball gag makes it seem almost dangerous...but it has a naughty sex appeal.....I like it alot...very brave and original..I'd like to see it in pink personally...what can I say?

my checmical romance sucks... and gag balls are gross. if i could -5.. but 0. *shivers* the music of this generation *sigh*

   azrielen on Sep 05 '05
Hahaha xxshifttheoryxx....I have to say I usually agree. Most of that scene is kind of crap, especially live, but every now and then you find someone with something to say, and unlike some, MCR writes good lyrics.

Ball gags hurt and make you drool on yourself. I have no idea why people like them that much, but they are very effective at getting you to not talk. Hehe.
xPigeonx
xPigeonx on Sep 05 '05
I have to agree that Im not a fan of MCR but I really like this shirt and I hope it gets printed.. your probably my favourite artists on this site. Is it only going to come out in Navy?
azrielen
   azrielen on Sep 05 '05
Awww that's such a sweet thing to say, xPigeonx! Thank you! I just went back and looked at my submissions as a whole and it's so cool to see how much my style (as well as other people's around here over the years) has matured.

I'm not sure what color it will come out in. I like it on Navy, but if Threadless tems decides it would be better in another color they reserve the right to change it.

This is truely badass... It would be nice without the "Talk" streaks, but then that would take away from the whole point of submitting it for the competition (Unless the "Talk" made up her hair, which would probably look worse)

Either way, neat job! - one of my favourites from the competition.
azrielen
   azrielen on Sep 05 '05
Well all the blue Talks are suposed to be the back part of her hair flowing down. Or did you mean making ALL of her hair lettered? Cause yeah that would be a bit much I think...

Thanks! This competition has brought in some really great entries. I'm glad to be one of them.
random_monkey
random_monkey on Sep 05 '05
Aha, I never considered that to be the back of her hair.
Ok, you may call me dumb ;)

This design is incredible. I wish I could draw....sigh....oh well.
It was scary and provocative at the same time - and I loved the talk in her eyes as well.

My "ew! alcoholism kills" comment? Thanks! Shirts like that make me want to strangle kittens 'cause there is so much wrong with the world. Oh woe is me... HAHAHA...

Supertanito on Sep 09 '05
Love the idea! Love MCR! As much as I Love Slayer! That's right i said it! haha! Need a bit more depth on the hair(the back piece), But still great. Awesome job!
azrielen
   azrielen on Sep 09 '05
YAY MCR FAN! Glad you liked it. Yeah if it scores decently I might present some other color combos and a four-color version with more depth to the hair.

Has anyone figured out if this contest will have more than just one grand prize like the others did? Or are they just picking one shirt?
azrielen
   azrielen on Sep 10 '05
Weee 24 hours to go! And then like 3 monthes before the results of the contest. HAHAHAHA the SUSPENSE! GAH!
