Cool design. Unnecessary splatter and halftone dots that don't really fit in. Not something I would wear, but otherwise it is a pretty cool illustration.
sweet shirt!!! finally, a shirt thats not only for the "lol's"...*sigh* ive missed the really cool looking artsy shirts! now its all comedy shirts with little to no art, or just pop art :/ What happened to shirts like "Quid Vomits Happy", "Sawdust and Diamonds", "A Beautiful Battle","Divinity", "Oni", "He Who Ate the Sun", "Byrd","Wow Its a Ship", "Kinship", "Piratesque", "TATTIE BOGLE AND THE CORBIES". What happened to those? the type that when people went by you they would stop and say "WOW sweet shirt, where'd you get it!!" and not just "ha, funny shirt" and go about their busyness..the type of shirt youd proudly wear cause you know no one else around you can get it..and not just a shirt to make ppl chuckle.. : / if you agree, speak out so that hopefully teefury will remember its roots :(

yea i know...i rarely buy a shirt from here anymore...and im one of them that goes to DBH now. I just wish teefury would go back to the style of shirts that made this site. i honestly think they would attract more people, cause from what ive seen, they lost a big crowd of people by switching to comedic and pop art shirts. but w/e im just one and they probably wont care, im just a bit frustrated i guess haha.
Interesting use of color. I think it needs the splatters so it doesn't look like an old school iron on from the 70s. I also think without the halftone patterns it would be too ordinary. Nice work.

P.S. Shirt.woot has a very similar pirate shirt up today...
1. Now that's a very strange opinion.
2. Similar pirate shirt? Naw. Similar shirt? maybe. (only because they're both pirates.. but similar pirates? Hardly)
But hey! You thin it's a cool design! Woohoo!
I agree. I like pop art, but it's time to take a break from it. Get back to some great artwork tees. I've bought some of the pop art shirts, but come on. Star Wars parodies and geek humor have kind of run their course, at least until the new year.
I'm not a huge fan of pirates, but I thought the illustration was awesome, and was totally going to buy the shirt until I noticed the pipe. The pipe is just balanced on his lower lip, not in his teeth, which means it's defying gravity because he's not holding it up... I don't know if they meant to do that or if the placement was a mistake, but my OCD prevents me from being able to look at the shirt and not scream "The pipe isn't in his mouth! ARGH!" Especially since my boyfriend smokes a pipe, which increases the shirt's appeal (we pretty much have a thing for anything with pipes on it.)
Sorry about the tangeant, it's just... I'm insane. I notice these things.
so, are the shirt soft now like Design By Humans? or are they just using the same models? cause the one shirt I got from Tee Fury (Salvador Dali Zombie) and it was one of those T-shirts from the 90's thats fits like its made out of carboard, adn teh sleeves hang off your arm 6 inches....
rivetheart said: do you know what would be awesome? if the link to the artists portfolio actually worked. i cant believe it still isnt fixed....get on it teefury
As I stated earlier, there is no artist's portfolio :)
When there's one available we do link it, but when there isn't one it defaults to http:///. Sorry for the confusion!
Words from the Curator: Yo-ho-ho! Ne'er trrrusst a pirrate with a paaarrrot!
