Robsoul on May 03 '06 yes, fantastic detail, very surreal and reminds me of artwork I'd see for A Clockwork Orange or a snipet from Fahrenheit, it has this eloquent beauty |
 |
herky on May 03 '06 Nice, very creative and imaginative. Reminds me of the Twilight Zone.
|
|
Robsoul on May 03 '06 the subtle gesture of the hand, the flowers and the falling petals and then the ominous eye |
 |
beautious.

 |
mezo on May 03 '06 That intricate doilie is mystifying!

grayehound on May 03 '06 Really amazing detail in the lace, cup and hand. Very nice composition, too birt! Nice work!
|

 |

jublin on May 03 '06 i love the detail in the pupil. (is that what that is? the pupil?) i skipped eyeball anatomy in highschool. either way... great stuff!
|
 |
the pupil is the black center
the doily makes up the iris i like the concept, but.... the caruncle (inner pink corner) is at a very sharp upward angle, and should be either horizontal or angled slightly down the arm making the lower lid looks weird - i think it's because in general the lower lid is thin and the upper lid is heavier and the arm should extend so that it extends the length of the lid, with the cup at the corner of the eye possibly nit-picky, but anatomy that's close but "off" bothers me 4 |
 |
Very beautiful, one of your best yet!!!
$5!!!!! |

fastjumper on May 03 '06 very nice.

$5 |

Monkey II on May 03 '06 I thought I already comment and score this one...?
weird This image is soooo detailed, it's out of this world! |
 |
interesting concept
$5 |
|
Interesting idea, but it seems a bit overdone. I'd focus on the iris-as-table and drop the eyelid-arm. I think those ideas compete for attention. The perspective seems awkward.
|
 |
really nice details. great work!
|
 |
absolutely gorgeous. damn brilliant i say!
5$ |
 |
eskimokiss on May 04 '06 Dali would be proud.
This is definitely my favourite of your designs thus far, but you keep amazing me every 2 to 3 submissions. (best of the orwellian subs IMO ;) ) 5$ |
 |
o0o0o0oo yeah just geat!!
cha-ching$ |
 |
travis76 on May 04 '06 your 'eye' for detail never ceases to astound me....5$
|
|
possibly my favorite design of all time.
|
 |
JOHN2 on May 04 '06 Stunning. I really hope this get printed.
|
 |
beautiful. I really wish it had color, though.
|
 |
I really wish it looked more natural from far away. It is lovely, though.
|
 |
wow.
|
 |
i love the surrealism and intricacy in the design, but i don't think it's shirt material.
5 |
 |
wowzers that's awesome
|
|
wow bad trip once?
the flowers are emo, but i like it. |
 |
ok so
I absolutely LOVE this I'm interested to see how it would look on black 5$ |
 |
Just letting you know...
This has to be one of the nicest pieces of vector work I've ever seen. There is so much detail, and it is so aesthetically pleasing, it's just amazing. I don't know if I'd actually wear it, but I'm giving you the $5 anyway due to how nice this piece is. |
 |
Print it, send it to yo' mamma.
|
 |
Love the illusion! Very nice.
|
 |
omg bort, 5$
|
|
That is so creative!! I love it.
|
|
the anatomy comment really bugged me.
rudra... (say it like "newmannnn") congratulations on your bionerdery. however, if the perspective were looking up at the eye, from down the nose (and you seem to be very familiar with down the nose...), the caruncle would be at a perfectly acceptable angle. possibly bitchy, but people who flaunt their "irrelevant knowledge" bug me. |
 |
Nice design, a lot of work obviously went into both the concept and creation.
|
|
Skipper6745 on May 06 '06 I keep looking at this and hoping that it gets way over 3. This is just too fantastic of an illustration and piece of art in general to be not recognized and printed.
|
 |
really cool. i like how you gave depth to the iris and made the eye cry with coffee. nice!
|
|
Very Dali. I dig it.
|
|
Oooh. I like this one, and I like the colours used. I'm a fan of grey.
|
 |
oh, this is beautiful.
|
 |
Andy Mason on May 07 '06 i really hope this one gets printed.... alot of times.
|
|
it's wonderful, but i wish it had some subtle accents of color. 4 (thiiiiiis close to a $5)
|
|
i agree with PhoenixPatronus, I think some color would be helpful... i liked this design the longer i looked at it.
|
|
Very creepy, and very well-done. An interesting thing to try would be to have the flowers in the vase be longer and stemmier and leaning far to the right... and then they could maybe look like lashes. *shrug* But maybe that's just getting too literal...
|
 |
I said "Whoa" once I scrolled down and saw the whole design. I love this. $5
|
|
puns are awesome
|
|
...like a hot dog
|
|
Finally a shirt I like. A lot. The shirt has levels. And I like levels.
5$ (^my first of the day) |
|
Joining the choir here....this is a truly lovely shirt. 5$ To those who seem to think this should be a physically accurate representation of an eye in all respects, I ask: Is it just a picture of an eye? No. Then allow the artist artistic license...yeesh.
Since I'm a big fan of both M.C. Escher's "Eye" and Charles Allan Gilbert's "All Is Vanity," it makes sense that I'd be superkeen on your work, too. Keep it up! |

bortwein on Mar 27 '08 I was just looking back on this design and reading through some of the comments and I want to Thank All of you who really supported this design. It is still one of my favorites. Perhaps I should do a Rev 2 of this design with a splash of color added.
Again Thanks. |
