if you don't understand it, cover up the part of the elephant that's underwater. thanks.

cambert on Mar 17 '06

Lovely idea but the execution could use some work. The elephant's head is a strange shape, and its legs are too straight - they should look like it's swimming. The guy's head is a strange shape too. A bit of cleaning up and this will be great.

samtabsav on Mar 17 '06

LOL.

excellent. if we didn't have 2 shirts printed at this very moment with mister sea monster, i'd give this a $5

but.. i guess at this point it's kind of unoriginal? i'm not sure. I'D wear it, but you're going to get smeared for it.

in any case, awesome job.

smithil on Mar 17 '06

I <3 Lochness Imposter.

This is no substitute.

DTLA on Mar 17 '06

tis is a nice idea

rrich76 on Mar 17 '06

i'm pretty sure it's pachyderm

Dmakexmachina on Mar 17 '06

Way too much like Loch Ness Imposter which has already been printed.

band-it on Mar 17 '06

wow, didn't even see loch ness imposter. bummer.

(nottabadword) on Mar 17 '06

I like it a lot 4$

dangerouspenguin on Mar 17 '06

I heard a story on CBC radio the other night (As It Happens for any Canucks out there) about a scientist who was hypothesizing that Nessie was actually a series of carnival elephants seen bathing in the loch over several years. It was a pretty weak story for what's usually an excellent show, but I can only imagine that it inspired this sub.

aptrick on Mar 17 '06

i like this better than the lock ness imposter

WESTY77 on Mar 17 '06

hahaha i like this one! imposter was good but so is this one. $4

band-it on Mar 17 '06

dangerouspenguin, i had the idea, and then someone told me about that story, believe it or not. pretty weird.

shoplifted on Mar 17 '06

this is great! 5

Notor!ousD!no on Mar 17 '06

HAHAHAHAHHA. <3 I'd buy faster than you could say "Grab me harpoon"

lucy.loo on Mar 17 '06

SOOO awesome. I like it on the colour its on, but I think green and blue would work too. $5

frankcan on Mar 18 '06

why is the guy pointing?

napster on Mar 18 '06

^^^caus he he thinks he see the lock ness monster...
Anyways great design i like it. I disagrea with the first post.. the elephants preportions look fine to me. A little close to "lock ness imposter" though...

$5

zimfreak on Mar 18 '06

Is this supposed to be an elephant? Because it's missing ears.
That's my only qualm, it doesn't look like an animal.
Also, the guy's forehead is HUGE.
His head is really misshapen.
Fix it, resub it, and you've got a 5 from me.
right now,
3.

LikitySam on Mar 18 '06

Very clever, nice design. First 5 I've ever given.

butterflu on Mar 18 '06

HAHA.

I WANT IT.

YES!

five and buy.

beauty.in.the.breakdown on Mar 18 '06

well. very cute, i like it, just somethings i'd change.
the elephant's head is a little weird- no ears for one thing. and the head a little high.
but still.
pretty cool.
:]

coxiesara on Mar 18 '06

Love it but I agree with Cambert. Make those changes and it's so a $5.

Asthenic on Mar 18 '06

I love this. I think it would be a wonderful complement to Loch Ness Imposter.

Kiltsareawesome on Mar 18 '06

I like it but I think the elephant needs a little work. The fact that it doesn't have an ear makes his head look funny.

kissingaudrey on Mar 18 '06

I really like the Loch Ness Imposter 'cause I love anything squid-related, but I actually still like this one better.

sophaloo on Mar 18 '06

i like this one wayyyyyyy better than the Loch Ness Imposter.. i think the whole squid thing is getting old, cuz a lot of people are doing them. this one's awesome! i hope it gets printed! i gave it a 5!!

entr0pique on Mar 19 '06

Pachyderm. Cool shirt.

carbonrevolution on Mar 19 '06

seems like your trying to take the loch ness monster idea thing on a t shirt already...kinda lame if you ask me.

band-it on Mar 19 '06

carbon, i had no idea it was a shirt. but whatever.

Skeemey Mc Skeem on Mar 20 '06

I dont want to be negative, and its been said several times in this thread, but its too similar to Loch ness imposter... you should really go and look at all the shirts that've been printed before you sub, its not hard.

try blogging the idea first. it helps majorly.

and it is spelt PACHYDERM, and the elephants head is weird...
his brain is too big.

xelliex on Mar 20 '06

this is brill

happyphantom37 on Mar 21 '06

I think it's a cute concept...but too close to the same concept as loch ness imposter. However, unlike loch ness imposter, the figure in the boat is a nice touch! Over-all, nice work, but I don't think I would buy this one.

SemantiTheft on Mar 21 '06

Hehe... love it. I don't feel as if you need the guy in the boat, though.

SharMac on Mar 21 '06

It's cute, but you should make it more clear that the guy is seeing the "loch ness" part of the elephant. I wouldn't have gotten it if you hadn't told me and neither would anyone looking at the shirt.

PenguinPajamas17 on Mar 22 '06

need to cover up the part of the eliphant that is underwater more but great concept

lucyfarfort on Mar 22 '06

Clever idea but poorly executed. I think you should definitely do this again but spend more time on the image

blandford on Mar 22 '06

so is no one else ever allowed to make anything w/a Loch Ness theme? this is not a copy of the other one,& it's just as clever. I also wish it was drawn a bit better, but I think it's a good idea.

FringedGinger on Mar 22 '06

i like this a lot better than the loch ness imposter... 4$

Robot! on Mar 22 '06

Haha. Nice concept, but I agree with everyone; work on it a little more.

a dead cat on Mar 22 '06

baller shirt; i would wear it to a cool shirt convention. that's how cool it is.

stewiehatesyou on Mar 22 '06

I like this because I already knew about the elephants swimming = nessie photos from years ago. I think you should move the design up a little bit so it's more on the chest and not so much in an odd chest-tummy hybrid position. Also, a more exciting color would be nice. Maybe a nice yellow-y green or a light sky blue.

I would totally wear this one and the loch ness imposter shirt on consecutive days and be like "what, bitch?"

Invader_Xan on Mar 23 '06

Please, man. Give the poor creature some ears! =)

Loriande on Mar 23 '06

I agree that the position of the design needs to be moved up on the shirt and the elephant needs some ears, but other than that I love it!

SeraphNoctum on Mar 23 '06

...wheres the elephants ears? its bugging me a bit

I_heart_ducks on Mar 23 '06

I love the concept, but the design is... lacking. 4

booradley2004 on Mar 23 '06

Concept ... maybe but the design....No!

shwinkie123 on Mar 23 '06

Ears!! I knew something was wrong I just couldn't get it and after reading...I found it! Yes ADD EARS!!

it's a cartoon and it's cartoonish. it's funny and clever and is way funnier then loch ness imposter. the colors are nice and the design is flawless. these tools don't know what they're talking about. Later.
