Yes, it's very cute, and you're obviously talented (and I have a very similar white tattoo on my right hand to the one on her arm), but, of course, in the end we must come to the only logical conclusion, in two words: Hot Topic!

^ Who the heck cares if it looks like Hottopic or any other store or brand? Some people have styles that resemble well known stores/brands but it isn't necessarily a bad thing. This is really well done and an all around great design.

I like it..5

Nice presentation too.
You really know how to sell.

the cutest. i want <33

Super cute! ...and the shirt is nice too! ;-) The only thing I would suggest is eyebrows.

Good Job.

$4

esse é o cara..modelin massa ó...é parente sua?..hehe..5$$$

dj

Junko would be proud.

"Command-Z-Design": The eyebrows is missing becouse she shaves. ;)

ugh

it looks neato :) good job.
5$

looks great. Just wish people would stop using balloons!! what is the deal with them anyway? My wife and I have a theory that it is some subconscious womb-memory of the yolk-sack... so there you go!

ummm but yeah... nice design!!

you gotta check out 'Illicit' clothing - its big down here in New Zealand. Particularly look at Misery's stuff - she's doing huge overseas now. Drop them some of your designs, i'm sure they'll apppreciate it...

nice presentation, but that's about where the compliments end for me.

LOVE IT!!!!
5$

i luv the purple and the presentation.

oooh i love its purpleness. i like your style as well...

Don't they sell shirts with that same design at Hot Topic? The design is also boring and totally unoriginal.

goth... yuck.

PLEASE PRINT THIS!!!

nice

your model is awesome, and so are your characters. Definitely check out Illicit like fras said. I have an awesome illicit shirt.

i didnt care much for your other 2 submissions (mainly a color issue for me) but i do like this one,

5$ id buy it

Very well executed design.

Very nice colors too.

What the hell is that stuff all around the model's eye? And are you signing your submission? What are the bats? Give me a break, this design is terrible.

parabens cara, essa merece d+ ser impressa, ta linda, eu amei tmb a apresentação... :D mt mto mto legal... abraço! $5

$5 for the female model

the only reason why i dont like this is because

1. it doesn't seem all that "unisex" to me... sure, some--SOME-- guys would wear this, but... think of the majority...

2. it's too "mainstream typically cutsie" right now... there's alot of places all over the world (Im in the land of ice and beavers, tee hee!) that would carry something like this.

AND WTFBBQHOTDOG PEOPLE! SHUT THE FWAK UP ABOUT HOT-BLOODY FUKKIN'-TOPIC!!! jesus... just protraying the god-aweful stereotype of the stupidly typical american teenager...!!!! *flameflameflame*

If this were in a specialty shop, with a seperate line geared more to girls, this would be perfect... me, personally, I'd like this on a li'l royal-coloured messenger bag... mmmm!

ps: yes... junko WOULD be proud... as am i!

can the girl be delivered overnight, or do i have to go with ground?

After I read some comments I felt me in the obligation to give some explanations:
1)Target: Yes, my style always was considered or infantile or very girly. In the beginning this bothered me, but now, not anymore. When I made these t-shirts I thought exclusively for girls. It had been made the order of my sister, who´s, btw, its a big fan of the Hot Toppic. Yes these t-shirts it has a well specific public-target, and I understand, that here, a print to be produced has to be "uniform as possible". Therefore, I know that it doesn´t please so much in here, as would please as in a label more directed toward to the target. But thats fine, my idea was not to make of this print a winner, but only receive feedback about my work. So thanks all who did that.

2) Hot Topic: I am brazilian, and as such, during a long time I didnt know the existence of this label. As I already said, my sister felt t-shirt lack for girls as her, here in the Brazil (and we do not have Hot Topic downhere). Then I made the first one inspired on her (KIKA), that more like the doll on the T as the time we speak. To make this story short (:P), when I realise it I made a small collection, all in this style. I think That Im already have 6 (“Kika – Mod Dooll”, “Kiko”, “Andora – Bad Medecine”, “Scarlatt – Silent Movie”, “Kelly+Ted - skull toys”, “Clara+Branca – Love Hurts”). After having discovered the label, must to admit that they would be really fit perfect there. Then I`ll take these comments as compliment, a time that obtained to catch what this public likes.
3) Feet and Arms: the feet and the arms dont go anywhere. They are there, much simplified. The style of the illustration is this, like it or not. Perhaps this impression has been more in the t-shirt "silente movie". I think that becouse the position and for the fact that doen´t wearing shoes. But if you noticed , in the others two you´ll see that the the carecters have thumbs!. However already it had heard this commentary on "Boxing Helena" and I found very funny . =P

4) About the model: These images had been created for my personal portifolio. Even before I knowing the existence of Threadless. The model was found on the web. I wish I know her...

5) About me and the threads: I believe that this site has appeared with the intention to be something democratic. Of any one, (goths, rockers, boys, girls, emos, vegans, musicians, and why not? Designers also) to come and post a print that would like to be produced. The ironic is that I don´t look like, not even a little with the target with that would use this kind of t-shirts. I am ordinary guy. Im not goth at all. I do´nt even like metal! Perhaps my error was to forget that doesn´t exist many of this public out here. Bou that´s ok, after all, for the people who was made this print, as hate as it gets, better. ;)

Thanks all for the comments. I really appreciated.
Oh...and sorry about my english. ;)

i'd buy it.

make guuuuuuuuuuuuys!! you are a very talented artist... buy guuuuuuuuuuuys!! i want a shirt designed by you but of a GUY!

"What the hell is that stuff all around the model's eye? And are you signing your submission? What are the bats? Give me a break, this design is terrible. "

the stuff around the model's eye is representative of swirly biro. this means if you wear this shirt, you must also have stylish swirly biro around your eye. it's cool. biro is the new black.

what are the bats? "the bats" are a group of noctural mammals part of the chiroptera family. "The Bats" are also a new zealand band.

unless her design magically transfers onto your skin, then *no*, the bats and signature aren't a part of the design. honestly, can i fucking facepalm you yet? how about judging the design for THE DESIGN instead of the edited graphic?

hahaha!!! I love you, twangd. You complete me.


as for the design, I like it. It's not really something I, myself, would wear, but it's cute and well done. A lot of my friends would kill for this shirt. 5

great job..i like the girlyness of it, very cute. 5

I'm gonna go out on a limb and suggest that fgirardi probably realizes that guys wouldn't wear this. Just a thought.

soooooooooooooo cute

it looks nice but it's very hot topic-ish. i wouldn't wear it.

Love the picture, but I wouldn't wear it as a tshirt.

She looks good in it, though.

very cute but i don't like purple.

if you made the image on your profile into a sub i'd buy it in a second!

Bluenotes. It makes me think bluenotes. 0
