Pretty curious to read some constructive feedback.. and hopefully You like it, of course..

Curatolo on Nov 29 '05

she's hot (i mean the girl, not the duck), btw i dont get it.. a no-sense?

aidyl on Nov 29 '05

the illustration is great--wonderful use of line weight and shape. perhaps make the image a bit smaller on the actual t.shirt. it also looks as though you have more than four colors--be careful of that.

plans on Nov 29 '05

Excellent. Reminds me of those B movies you used to see in drive in theatres, with twist.

syzygy196 on Nov 29 '05

i like it a lot.
only... minus the duck.
or move the duck to somewhere else.

'cause... not to be vulgar, but, with this placement...
it looks like the moster from the blue lagoon has a duck dick.

speechless on Nov 29 '05

I just keep thinking that her boobs are really far apart. Really, really far apart. Like, under her armpits far apart.

i like it... but the monster's stomach shouldn't be so... cut off
Ripple it a bit, or something

matt casey on Nov 30 '05

this is so funny. i love the creatures expression....its kinda like hes trying to get sentimental and she's weirded out

myviolentego on Nov 30 '05

thanks for all comments.

it's not exactly a no-sense illustration.. yes, he's a sentimental (maybe the duck is a toy..), and She's surprised about that..

_for aidyl: well, of course it's only 4 colours: green, deep green, black (used with several different sizes), white (ps. the use of 4 colours only drives me crazy hehe..)

___for Speechless: little breast can be sexy..

I'm definitely seeing three greens on his chest (the wavy lines show up against both the pale green and the mid green in the middle), plus black and white - it's 5 colours. Pity, because the idea and style are both great.

myviolentego on Nov 30 '05

dear Cambert, for Your information:
greens are:
#8DA307
#A4B21D

The lines on his chest are black #000000 at 0,07 pt.

The white is white.

Please, use a colour tools before making mistakes..
thanks. :-/

Ava Adore on Nov 30 '05

very good

scottyo on Nov 30 '05

very nice... I don't see how the 3 greens on his chest are not 3 colors? light green, darker green, shadow green.. no?

myviolentego on Nov 30 '05

hi Scottyo, - thanks for feedbacking.
hopefully this can answer to each doubt..

enjoy: http://www.myviolentego.com/tshirts/closeup.gif

Trivox2 on Nov 30 '05

maybe i'm just slow but i can't figure out how he got his feet to do that in the water. it just seems impossible to flip your feet completely around so they face up. - again...maybe its just me.

other than that and the armpit boob - i love the shirt.

kathodos on Nov 30 '05

okay, this could work really well, but id lose the girl. creature from the bblue lagoon in the bath is genius, i dont think we need the chickadee but keep the duck, it makes the image.

Pico on Nov 30 '05

Erase the girl but leave everything else as-is and I'd give it a 5.

kathodos on Nov 30 '05

okay, holy shit. Those lines on the chest are never black, they may be a semi-opaque black or be rockin a halftone but they aren't black rasterised pixels on my monitor. They look black on the closeup granted so i'd say it's just the anti-aliasing on the size reduction that's caused the discrepancy. Colour tools or not, but I wouldnt expect everyone to start using software to backup what they can see with their own eyes.

Climbbamboo on Nov 30 '05

In the close-ups thing they look pretty black...
syzygy196 couldnt be more wrong, I think the duck is perfect. I think it would lose a lot of interest without the girl, she has a nice expression. are they in a bath? I think there should be some cattails or some weeds in the water if its supposed to be located in da lagoon. It is also a little bit too big I think.

myviolentego on Dec 01 '05

Ok kathodos, if Your eyes see five, six, seven colours, - that makes no matter, it's ok. But if someone says 'watch out, this image doesn't respect Threadless rules because my eyes see 5 colours even if i know it's four', - well, it does a matter.

Thanks for all attention, btw ^_^

NotCordial on Dec 01 '05

If Threadless truly likes the shirt, they won't care if it has more than 4 colors. They have printed shirts before that had more than 4. It's a nice design...and I like it on red!

missingno on Dec 02 '05

on purple i would buy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grasshopper30 on Dec 02 '05

Looks like his feet have been severed and are floating away upside down. Its still cool.

ELMOnster on Dec 02 '05

you've got a great design here
i like the awkward feet, and definitely keep the girl and her armpit boobies.
its more fun that way ^^

i love it on the red.
though, perhaps its a little big?
make it a little smaller and you've got my cashmoneys.

Being a ninja never looked so good on Dec 02 '05

boobs are far apaaaaaaaaaart
but if its supposed to show cleavage that way
then draw the cleavage
haha
hm
awkward

naoko s. on Dec 03 '05

i like it. strange and bold but kinda calm

Solari on Dec 03 '05

Reminds me of this messed up movie called Dagon which was based on an H.P. Lovecraft short story... pretty cool.

YoreNameHere on Dec 03 '05

yeah deff the boobs have issues... and the duck is awesome but it is in a very odd place.

12monkeys on Dec 03 '05

yeah, her boobs are definitely too far apart.
and his feet do look kinda funny... and i don't get it. is she in the tub with him?
i definitely like the idea of him in the tub.

myviolentego on Dec 04 '05

ok buddies, i'll see to redraw her body in next days, and in case i'll re-submit the artwork.. btw, i thnk that if added a kind of location like a tub, - it would be a mess, too many things that run immediacy.. isnt it?
