I think the mermaid is grand! Is the thought bubble necessary, though?

Am I just an opinoinated twunt?

Nicely done. Not crazy about the boots in the thought bubble... but without it I guess it would be too plain.

I think the boots need a bit more work.
At first I thought it was a pair of cut off legs with ugly heels on. ;)

This is pretty cool, good idea and very graphic "threadless" feel to it. Composition wise, the thought bubble needs to be moved over to the right more.

I LOVE mermaids and pirates, so any shirt with those themes is an automatic $5 to me!! But, the only thing I have to say is, the seaweed she's sitting on looks like land grass. Just fix that and it'll be a major...

See, this is why I could not be a mermaid. No boots of ass-kicking. :(

(But I'd immediately buy this, because it's awesome x a gazillionmillionbillionnintillion. :D )

The concept is good, but the illustration seems a little bland. The figure is so impersonal in an image that calls for an emotional connection. In my opinion, of your latest submissions, the plane/flying one seems to be in a class of its own...

the thought bubble being an actual bubble being that she's underwater is cool.
a little too feminine for me, but great design!

gah! omg! I just realized mermaids can't have shoes!
I don't know what I'd do without shoes...

I'm not really sure why everyone likes this so much.
In any case, the figure needs a bit of work.

Last time I checked, mermaids didn't have calves.
Maybe it would look better if she wasn't just flipper-foot girl.
wired_fractal
wired_fractal on Feb 05 '06
it would have been very nice, but the idea of her thinking bout boots doesn't seem to work for me.
DarlingItsTragic
DarlingItsTragic on Feb 05 '06
HAHA. Aww.

Great concept, but you might wanna work on the whole calves thing.

Otherwise, $5
Sushiful
Sushiful on Feb 05 '06
Maybe highheels instead, but if you are going to use those boots, I'd say move the bubble over so it's not so perfectly centered. (Maybe just to the right, maybe a little lower, too.)

I feel for the gal. Fix her hair, please; it looks like a mane in the way it "grows" down her back and neck.

Yes; there are many designs relating to mermaids. This one is unique, and it is unique because this girl longs for shoes. Those who suggest the removal of said footwear should learn that they are proposing a pointless shirt comprised of just a mermaid. Silly.

Does the guy come with the shirt too? :)
Mahadeva
Mahadeva on Feb 06 '06
Beautiful and 5$ if reworked with some of the mentioned corrections. I wish the boots would match the style of the rest of the shirt; even though they are the subject it seems they stick out way too much.

I love this... keep the boots, girls like boots.
Forest Fruits
Forest Fruits on Feb 07 '06
One thing that bugs me is that the placement of her breasts seems off. Their position is too low, and the shape is a bit strange, the bottom part seems to "merge" with her body (like if she were wearing a sweater).
Stygianlulliloo
Stygianlulliloo on Feb 07 '06
Nice. Though it may be just me but her head looks a bit manish...metrosexual merman perhaps?
professorbootyxxx
professorbootyxxx on Feb 08 '06
Wasn't this a credit card ad? (or some sort of commercial?)

Even if it was, it's hilarious. Love it.

The face does look very masculine, though. 5 once the face is fixed.

Cayman
Cayman on Feb 08 '06
i like it a lot!

i think i would (personally) like it more if she was thinking of sexy stilettos.

but it's a gem. for real. 5$
somethingclassy
somethingclassy on Feb 08 '06
so, sorry if i'm repeating things, but i got tired of reading all the comments.

love this idea, but wouldn't buy it unless the shoes were cooler. those boots seem kinda shabby. yea, stilettos would be better, as cayman's said.

also...could she look sadder? like a tear? also'd be funny cause ...tears underwater? heh? whatever.
fancyham
fancyham on Feb 08 '06
the boots need to be way cooler. think fluevogesque.
The Lizard Queen
The Lizard Queen on Feb 08 '06
I would buy this if the mermaid's anatomy was improved a bit. Make her hair more delicate, her breasts less saggy, and her tail more tail-like. Also, the boots should look more like the rest of the picture style-wise, make it look more like a silhouette.
