"One of these days" Santa is going to "86" his sleigh and REPRESENT. He'll be stylin' in his designer scarlet dyed crocodile overcoat and jewel encrusted 24K "candy cane." His "Blingformation" would not be complete without a sparkling orthodontic "grill" and a shiny imported convertible. Click on my profile for a higher resolution design. Your votes and comments are greatly appreciated.

i was just old skool flava flav for halloween!!! I totally dig the golden clock, among the expression and joy coming out of Santa's mouth (diamond stud included). A hoodie with this on it in time for the Christmas season would be deee-lightful. X-cellent work as always Herk.

For some reason I really like it as a hoodie but not on a T? It is to hot here in Christmas to wear a hoodie though. Very cool work though.

You have some serious talent. Love this illustration.. made me giggle.
herky
   herky on Nov 22 '06
you're ABSOLUTELY correct st3ppinrazor, I ripped this off (actually "Live-Traced" it) exactly from "Pimp My Slide." I mean everything is copied verbatim, the color scheme, the style of drawing, the car model, even down to all the "Bling" and jewelry. In fact, I think I'll e-mail Threadless and have it removed from the running.


Oh wait a minute st3ppinrazor, I think you're completely confused because copyrights on "ideas," "creativity," "imagination," "inspiration" and "intelligence" do not exist in the world. You really CAN'T get in trouble. Now I completely understand why you left the comment above. It's a shame "ignorance" can't be copyrighted because I believe you would be a trailblazer. Rolls eyes. :)

champamoore on Nov 23 '06
sorry, but as great as the idea is, you really need to check the hood to see what's goin' on with the bling thing.

gold is sooooo 2004. all the real ballers are rollin with platinum/ice grills. and have for the past 2 years. as for the imported ride, that is absolutely ungangsta. more like white bread...

i give you a 4 for effort, though, as it really just comes down to better research.
herky
   herky on Nov 23 '06
No sweat champ, chill, it's only a T-Shirt design, not a history lesson. But I'll let you in on a little secret; there is very little scientific research that shows zombies, vampires, butterflies shooting out the side of your head and Food with Faces exist, but that doesn't prevent this subject material from getting printed. Thanks for your vote though. ;)

The title is clever but it's not on the shirt so you lose some of the oomph with just the design alone, even though it's well done.

The man doth protest too much, methinks.

Your right about there not being any law against it and I didn't claim any copyright violation. I just thought it was a cheap shot to reproduce someone else's idea. Yeah its a shame that some people don't have any pride to keep on their own side.

There is nothing wrong with bouncing an idea and making it your own, but this is a straight rip bro. I'm not saying you can't draw, because you can. My point is you go and see my boys stuff and all of a sudden you have the same stuff with a twist on the look and title. I mean wow!

I just think its crazy cause your other stuff seems much more original.

Makes me wonder now though.

st3ppinrazor-meknows you are a total idiot. I find it amusing you didn't have the balls to post your drivel (last comment) until after my design finished scoring. Perhaps you feared the backlash from the voting community or any sane human being for your unsubstantiated and ridiculous accusations? Get over yourself, I don't care to know you or your "boy" and if I was to ever "rip-off" something, believe me "Pimp My Slide" would not be anywhere on my list.
