I love the colors. I don't understand why the ship is smaller than the group of people but I'm not picky, I'd wear it... $4

Like it better with the clouds. Really cool concept!
Not sure about the shirt colors, though. I threw the pic in Photoshop and tried out that pale orangish color you have as the background and I like it like that better. Not sure if it's an option, but there you go. The blue works well too (although I'm not sure I'm up for another light blue shirt)
Good work though!

good illustration, but not my type of t shirt material.

maybe for a book, but not for shirt

i like the white space in this version, but not crazy about the clouds themselves. they look a little too much like moustaches, especially that middle one. if i were buying a gift for a kid the clouds wouldn't stop me from getting this, because overall i like it a lot. very cute, and slightly surreal without being too weird for the age group most likely to wear it. makes me laugh that the top kid is standing on their heads instead of their shoulders.

i totally love this
rockeatin
very nice illustration and colors. it's a little big on the shirt; makes it feel like a kids' shirt.
it's pretty feminine, but femininity is cool.

$5

Not sure this works well on a t-shirt, but you get a 5 for an excellent illustration!

I like it,
weather I want to or not.
Papernails
good looking illustration. I don't really understand the concept. A sailboat pulling skiers without skis. What made you think of this?
sonmi
thanks for the comments and suggestions!
i'm not sure how i thought of the idea, but this is how i imagined it.
this is my first time designing for t-shirts, so all of your suggestions/feedback are definitely a learning experience for me.
doo doo boy
nice pallette & illustration, i like it
ungivenglory
Definately a creative illustration and beautiful use of color, I personally wouldn't wear this because it isn't my style, BUT i know lots of people would so for that i give you a 5.
spacesick
Nice work!
snkhan

rombocket

sonmi

$5!
hamsterboo
smaller would be better
Ferasu
love the colors
echoepidemic
Without the white bg part = $5
powdermonkey
love the picture.
needs to be on whit e, though. i don't normally dig the white shirts, but the colours look best with the white, and the design would flow better, rather than looking so much like a big circle.
jdugmore
doesnt this remind you of the opening credits of Alvin and the Chipmunks where he's waterskiing in the bathtub?
sonmi
oh man
Syrnix
lose the white clouds and i like it 3 for illustration, wouldn't wear it , but someone would
radioactive_toast
I really like this one, especially how the waterskiers are each obviously different instead of the same image.
sliester
This is so rediculously cute! In the good way of course. It reminds me of childrens books that i loved, the Little Prince, the Maggie Bee.
Klayr
Oh my GOD. This MUST be printed. I demand it. $5
yiang
aw...how pretty :]
I'd get it if it were on white though, because of the white border thingie on the sky hehe
BusCaptain
Awesome 5

I like it witht he clouds/sky - makes it a fuller picture. Looks great on any pale tropical color really. Even better is keeping the circles of colors around it like you have here (even though it's just to show the shades, I know) - makes it so 70's, only fresher. I just love the idea too. Can't you just see the Spaniards using their great galleons for such ventures? You could even call it "Ship retirement" or something silly like that. Very fun shirt. $$$

I'm pretty upset that this didn't get scored higher....I'm dissapointe in you people. :(
