    I really really dig the idea, but I hate that some of the animals are repeated. When they're in the same pose, it's really obvious, especially with the eagle/hawk/bird of prey that's repeated about five times.

    Apparently the artist is into grenades. Judging by this and the side art. Not sure why. That side fish looks cool though.

    Aren't we going to argue about whether the designer actually drew all of the animals or if they were traced or if it was done using some sorta graphic designers' computer program or whatever?

    I bought the Nature tee from another site. Love it.

    And where have I seen that music genre one before? Help!

    P.S. Congrats on the printing, Leech.

    What's the big deal about some of the animals being repeated in the design? They're repeated in nature...

    i agree; noah brought TWO of all the animals onto that big ole' ark of his. and i think that the fact that they are in different poses helps alot.

    Someone glancing at you and the shirt isn't going to think, "omg, the bird of prey is repeated five times. lame." Stop being so critical.

    I'm in agreement with the repetition is a bad thing angle. Good concept but ultimately a lot less exciting than the Union Jack hand grenade.

    Thought about it, but sorry, still can't break that rule about ordering with comments on the side art within the first 10 posts.

    But that's my job

    And besides, I don't get shirts because I give a Voyager about what others think, I'll just keep seeing the repeated animals.

    I wouldn't mind if he repeated the species of the animal, it just bothers me that it's the SAME POSE. I don't think I see 2 animals doing the exact same thing all the time. For example, there's a couple different deer and a few different horses that don't bother me at all, but a couple of the elephants, the seahorses, and hawks are all the same image and they stick out to me.

    Even though repetition is a compositional element, it's not repeated everywhere here so it just looks kind of lazy.

    I'm not really into this shirt...

    as for the repeating animals... i didn't really notice it except for the two horses near the bottom that look like they're about to hump.

    Love all the side art and the shirt is pretty good. dont know if its a buy just yet.

    DarthMatersaid 121 weeks ago

    I really do like the simplicity of this but I think it would have been better if you would have had the hand grenade much smaller with a giant human hand getting ready to pull the pin and blow it all away. I'm not a green nut but it would tie in well with all the philosophies of protecting the planet and their eco uber beliefs!

    I'm really diggin' the super super large print!

    Anyone have a Grenade Tattoo? Have seen several of them well
    done in different techniques and styles.

    Here's a really sweet one by Nick Baxter (As you can see, a phenomenal artist and tattooer.)

    The design is alright. Just not for me. I'm going to have to agree with some people though and say that I don't really like the fact that some of the animals are repeated.

    Also, I really like the typography design on the right (with all the genres of music). Very cool ;)

    I love that Koi in the side art - one of the best I have seen

    I like the concept of the shirt...it's just that the design is soooo freakin enormous. it kinda kills it for me :\

    Bfly150said 121 weeks ago

    I don't care for this one too much, but if the fish on the side was a tee, I would get it.

    saturninesaid 121 weeks ago

    I could be missing the point entirely, but in your image, it seems to say that animals contribute to man-made violence. Regardless, the use of animal images to create a mosaic of a weapon (or weapons to animal) is tiresome to me. As is the Koi fish...

    But at least here we have a clear statement:


    This one is more open to interpretation:


    On mosaics, I think it would show more cohesion if all your genres of music (classical, country, et al. should be included) formed something, such as the word "Music", a musical note, or an instrument. Alternately, if they were all coming from an instrument or note of music. Or, perhaps what would make the most sense (& be easiest) is if the words were inserted into a musical bar/measure with different notes making up some of the letters. I would really like to see that.
    [Royalties payable to Saturnine.]

    That evolution of "nature" (although I'd like to see more progression between the 1st & 2nd step) is very nice.

    so what happens when someone pulls the pin outta the life grenade? ha! Love the shirt!
  • image

    rebecajeansaid 121 weeks ago

    It looks more like a perfume than a grenade.
    And every time I wore it I would think that I'm promoting blowing up animals. Because my mind isn't functioning in a proper way, apparently.

    So, I'll have to pass. Sorry. Kind of like the Union Jack grenade, though.

    The pin is still in. So I guess the question is:

    How do you feel about threatening to blow up animals?

    If the style in question is forming an object out of many smaller objects, I think it predates those examples, too...
