That's just one of the points! Don't be discouraged by those who don't look close enough to see the great details -- it's a great concept!

I love the subtle details. It's perfect, since it does look normal at first glance.

Ben Strawn: Thanks. I'm so glad you like the drawing. I was going for a bland/"normal"/non-showy look so I'm really happy you appreciate it.



Colored Vinyl: The backwards head gag is probably tired, but I hope I make up for it with the eyes on hand instead of a watch. That gag's my favorite.



Everybody else: Thanks so much. This is my first submission here and I feel the love.

nice work on this



It took me awhile to catch the things you

snuck in there for viewers who aren't

rushing through the designs.

That upside down head

slowed me down to

catch the rest.

yeah when I first looked I almost only noticed the upside-down head.



But I believe every single guy has something "not normal" about him.

I like it. a lot.

it's awesome how there are tiny little subtle things that make you go "oh man... that's freaky" awesome, $5

Thanks everybody.

"Everyone Pretend To Be Normal" is the prompt for a competition here, so a lot of submissions are using that title/theme.

Heh. The face-hand was the first one I caught. I like it. Not sure I'd wear it, but I really do like it.

funny concept and illustration.

dies that guy have a watch in his hand! That's awesome. Some color options would be great. Grey, just doesn't do it for me. Grey doesn't do a lot, but Brown does.... "what can brown do for you?". I just wanted to add as stupid joke there, anyways I think a baby blue or navy would look pretty good!

Wow, this is great. I love the subtlety. When I first glanced at the design I just saw a bunch of incredibly bland people, but look closer and wow! Great job.

good concept and execution, I would have used a different or darker colored outline, but I still like it. This is one one the best Little Miss Sunshine submissions I have seen.

Thanks everybody.



The color of the shirt looks kinda greenish on some monitors and paler on other monitors, I've noticed.
