There's something about drawing a kid with a cape on... and then something else about drawing damaged stuffed animals. All in all, it was a fun design.
That's so sad. I respect any one who can get a rise out of me using just a tee design. I feel like it'd be more effective as a poster than a tee. I'd be sad every time I wore it.
Also, I feel like you should lighten up on the shadowing. The kid looks like Groucho Marx.
If he had a needle and thread (either in use, or just sitting nearby for future use) it wouldn't be so sad. But from the title, I know sad is what you're going for... I just don't like to be bummed out by my shirts. I suppose that's kind of lame, but true. I think the art is really nicely done, and you're right, there just IS something about kids in capes. And this is a particularly nice one.
I agree with daftradio that I'd love this as a poster, but I couldn't wear it because my inner child would violently protest. Fantastic design though, it really struck a nerve with me. 5.
I love the picture, and I like the meanings it has.
There's a sad feeling about it.
Because of the title, it's like the the kid is accepting the fact that some things can't be saved....
not only because his teddy bear is all ripped up, but because eventually, he'll get too old to play with it.
It's like he's holding the bear, and realizing that he's going to have to grow up and deal with real life.
I can't believe I felt all that just from this picture, but yeah.
I don't know if I'd want it on a shirt, but I love it.
the eyebrows are just shadow-ey I have no problem with it.
I don't think it's evil.
I don't know how I feel about wearing it yet, but it's really well done. I want to see more of your designs now.
First impression I got was the boy ripping his teddy's head off. I thought it was sadistic before I read the other comments that you were going for a sad thing. Anyone else agree?
Aw! It's like he lost his side-kick and best friend...
I love it, I know the feeling of loosing your favorite toy, especially one who's been "by your side" for a long time.

i think its great as a tee and design.
if you cant get over a picture of a ripped teddy bear, then life is gonna hit you hard. my dog has a ripped up teddy that we keep re-sewing.lol
the kid is looking at the bear in a reflective way instead of crying his eyes out. i like that about it.
thekungfus
Has daftradio ever seen Groucho Marx??? High Contrast is God! You delivered a strong emotion through simple imagry. Great job.

D; So Sad. But I would buy it, 5$
moniquerssneakers
The kid is very Akira-like. The figure looks like he is examining the toy, asif it wasn't really that important.
tireddragonfly
sad but beautiful
jimjimdesign
Is it a child or shrunken man?
I've never seen a kid with such thick eyebrows before.
I love everything else.
nekoama
I see it from a completely different prespective. To me it looks more like the kid is slowly and carefully pulling the bear apart.
Great piece, either way
jpiatt
looks like little superman doesn't know how strong he is!
I really like this
stephanietanzil
a different background perhaps? nice concept though
CrispyChickenTaco
Kick ass!
sandmanda
5. PERIOD.
Bella Lagussi
I get the impression that this is portraying the early stages of super-villany, like the kids going to grow up and be an ultimate bad guy.
mrsjohnmurphy
I think it's beautiful. Could be taken as sad or evil. It's neat the way it can be considered from different points of view. Gives it depth.
Misery&Co.
I remember feeling that way as child.
allietastic!
what a good drawing! you obviously have talent!

aw.
wensu
It makes me want to look at it. That says something.
MissSuperFantastic
The image is /amazing/, but what keeps me froms saying I'd buy it is I think the colors are terrible...that brown on that green? Hmm...
polynothing
I was attempting to compliment the muted red of the cape with a less saturated green, but the color of the shirt can vary if it gets picked.
Milford
I get the feeling that the kid deliberately ripped the teddy's head off.
Either way, I like it, but as has been mentioned, look into alternative shirt colors.
potatopotato
A little thread and needle never hurt.
heartJM
AHAHAHAHA. i love it! i dont like the background color, but its great.
threadlessisbetterthanmyspace

neophelia
