03/13/14 Top 3 Pick; Obtainer Of Rare Antiquities

Loving the single color shirts today. Interesting use of space to show duality. By placing one figure within another and changing the scale of the figures, the artist shows hierarchy between the adventurer persona “Indy” and the Doctor persona “Dr. Henry Jones”. All you need buy along with this shirt is a fedora to complete the ensemble and watch out for SNAKES!

03/13/14 Top 3 Pick; X-Mutant Yellow

Did I mention I love single color designs! While this shirt is offered in two different color options, I definitely enjoy the yellow on blue color scheme most. Strong, rugged, and masculine, both character are ready to clash. Simply lines define the negative space to reveal each character. Using the rough texture instead of a flat X figure adds depth. I can almost see a vs. sign between both figures with the phoenix symbol driving a wedge between them.

Thank You ClevaGurl

03/13/14 Top 3 Pick; The Night I Dark

Yes, I know, another Game of Thrones shirt. There are still a million Dr. Who shirts and slim pickings for other subject matter.

I greatly fancy this style. Mixing high detailed, realism, line drawings with handcrafted typography. The hatching and cross hatching texture on the raven nicely shows highlights and shade on the figure. Specially the shine on the dark feathers. The typography is nicely, unevenly wrapped across the body to show the birds rounded shape giving it dimension. This shirt is a nice way to send a message.

03/12/14 Top 3 Pick; Potterpuff Kids & Mojomort

Ready to save the day! Evil fighting trio mash-up ready to fly into action in simply, bold, geometric shapes. The artist was able to effectively balanced all the characters in the design. The three heroes are in fight formation and the villain’s big white head is nicely balanced with his large dark cloak.

03/12/14 Top 3 Pick; The Cheshire Express

Dark & whimsical, great use of negative space. The artist effectively used color and contrast of bright green and purple on the dark background to etch out the winding shape of the curled feline. Beautiful fine and thick hand sketched line work. The design is a purrfectly balanced ying-yang of dark to color ratio.

03/12/14 Top 3Pick; Time Lord Comics

There are just an overwhelming amount of Doctor Who tees! This Time traveling Humanoid alien looks very much like another classic alien comic book hero. I do love the retro style. The distressed texture, faded, pale colors, thick comic book outlines, lack of black and nice typography treatment helped me selected it as one as my top 3 pick. Very visually appealing. Simple content with nice details using think and thin lines and a large amount of well set typography.

03/11/2014 Top 3 Picks; Born of Fire & Born of Snow

I couldn’t pick between both designs! both are absolutely stunning and wild. For both the background image is chaotic, fierce and powerful which also describes the Game of Thrones. The simple silhouettes are both descriptive and add depth using scale.

Thank you Twenty27 Design

03/11/2014 Top 3 Pick: Pokebusters

Gotta Catch-’em All! I very much enjoy the mash-up of subject matter and execution. The artist was able to accomplish a great amount of detail with limited color. Using highlights on a dark background the image has a paranormal glow.

Thank you One Upon A Tee

03/11/2014 Top 3 Pick; Winter is Coming

Check out these shirts, pick out your favorite House. If I lived in Westeros I would hope to live in Winterfell so of course I picked out the Stark’s sigil. Also available House Greyjoy, Baratheon, Arryn, Lannister, and Targaryen. All designs are well composed, simple, bold and unformed. All color coordinated and containing details from each house.

03/10/2014 Top 3 Pick; Inara’s Shuttle of Love

Sultry, dark, sexy and smoky. Very nice composition, nice lines and forms. The royal shades of purple and gold give that design a rich glowing seduction.

03/10/2014 Top 3 Pick; Game of Thrones A- Z

Fun and Educational! I enjoy this shirt very much. The artist nicely personified each letter. The details and the use of the positive and negative space of each letter character nicely illustrates the Game Of Thrones characters. I am also definitely counting down the days ’til April 6th! Season 4 starts!!

Thank You Mike Boon

03/10/2014 Top 3 Pick; Hunter For Hire

I would definitely hire a Boba Fett Jäger for alien extermination. While I love the complete design there some changes I would personally make. I feel the starry background and “outer rim” is not necessary and detract from the overall design, sometimes less is more. Just the figure and the typography and the foreground is quiet delightful. I still really ejoy the design and the subject matter.

03/09/14 top 3 pick; Westeros Story

I would feel oh so pretty in this tee. I enjoy the simplicity of this design. Being able to convey a message using simple shapes and limiting the palette to 2 single colors is challenging at times. The design visually conveys The West Side Story cover and the events of the Game of Thrones show. I also happen to look good in Red.

Thank you Gordon Brebner Designs

03/09/14 top 3 pick; Ye Old Butcher Shoppe

Scary! The design has very nice details including the scare factor. I can almost feel the Chainsaw! Very nice typography imitating The Best Little Whore House in Texas. I enjoy the earth tones of the design on both back and brown options.

Thank you FlatTop Frankie

03/09/14 top 3 pick; A Link to the future

From the choice of weapon to the mode of transportation and wardrobe; the artist did a very nice job of mashing up Marty McFly and Link’s appearances. A clever title nicely communicated by the design. I also may have selected this shirt since The Back to the Future Trilogy are some of my all time favorite movies!
