“They’re all gonna laugh at you!” This image is just as incredibly shocking as the events of the movie Carrie. This might be the first shirt I’ve ever seen that actually scares me! The design really captures the anger, fear, and pure horror of the moment. The red pools and drips wonderfully delineate the negative space creating the figure of a scorned girl. The artist did a wonderful job of giving the design just the right amount of information to create the image.  The contrast of the bright white teeth and bright blue eyes help reveal her facial expression of pure anger and fury. I absolute love her delicate hands that seem to writhe in pain and direct her power.

Thank You Momech

05/07/2014 Top 3 Pick; Cthulu Class 5 vs. Little Hero

Classic good vs. evil. What an amazingly complex image. The gigantic, Lovecraftian Cthulhu made up of dark negative space with bright gleaming eyes towers over this cityscape made up of thin, long strokes. While the little hero in the bright positive space jets up in the center ready to defeat the monster. I love the texture created by the slanted sketch hatching to show the destruction. It nicely contrasts with the soft billowy look of the clouds above.

Thank You Karmazero

Game over for this little floating spirit. The other little neon buddies, Blinky, Inky and Clyde, hover nearby to lay a dead Pinky to rest. The Little Ecto Trap serves as a nice little open casket. Nice clean lines and solid colors. I enjoy the little expressions on their faces. Each spirit portrays a different emotion: shock, sadness, and reflective. Who knew these little guys could be so expressive? The angles, perspective, and slanted lines on the Etco Trap make the design dynamic.

Awesome black and white Back to the Future Design. The Delorean is wonderfully rendered hovering and tilted, ready to fly off. I enjoy the different typographic treatments throughout the design. They are all different but work together harmoniously. Sensational amount of details and movie references. I love the use of the lightning as the organic element, instead of the usual olive branches, in the emblem.

Hilarious shirt design! This shirt makes me think of a 4th of July cook out. It makes me proud to be a ‘Murica. Being Hispanic and the first generation born here, this shirt contains everything foreigners think of when they think of American. The comic rendition and collection of fearsome animals is lovely. I especially love the trucker hat on the eagle in the center. The explosion in the back makes the design look epic.

Thank You TeeTurtle

03/21/14 Top 3 Pick; A God beyond the Sea

This ancient water being is sketched out using a wonderful scale of colors and strokes.  I really enjoy the teal tones on the black background. The texture created by the amount of stokes is rich and gives it an underwater feel. The small circles on the tentacles and the bubble contours on the head creates a variety of details and textures.

Thank You Dr.Monekers
