I did it!! :D This is the first time I am participating in a dA-design battle! And I am soo excited about it!! I really hope you all like my design, a little cutie-monster being afraid of a spider under the bed (where monsters are told to live ^^) and now asking to sleep in your bed! :D It took me really long to draw and design the T-Shirt, but it was much much fun, especially since I tried to discover sime kind of a new style! ^^

P.S.: The little rabbit he is holding is inspired by a selfmade plushie of my little sister! ^^

PS CS4, about 20 hours in total

Many of you mentioned that my design has too many colors... But I believe it was only a recommendation, else it would mean they would only accept vectors, because when you are painting something you always have different hues and tones... I also think they would have written it in the official rules or the artistic guidelines, but they didnt, so it is probably just a tip to not use more than 7 colors! (I think anyway, that I used only brown, red, blue, yellow and cyan... so not more than 7 colors)

SWAG
by *MistyRei
Design Challenges / Original Quotes Challenge
©2012-2013 *MistyRei
please vote guys!!! :D i would looooovvveee to have my quote be on a T-Shirt :)

thanks! <3

(you may ask for more colors)

.:EDIT:.

Okidoki guys... i've got some stuff to say about this

Ok, i made this quote/saying/whatever one day while talking with my friends in school. We were talking about the word swag and what makes it so great, so we started thinking of stuff that swag stood for. And i just randomly thought of this. I made this design just for the fun of it, i never thought it would be so popular. People are telling me that "i am not original" because there is "something we asians got, something we americans got, etc." But, as far as my concerns.. this was original because i DID make it myself. I didn't go on google before i made this and be like "ok lets see what i can steel... hnnggggg"
So i am sorry if this is "bland" or "not original" enough for you. sorry, i honestly don't know what else to say. Long story short, i thought of this without any help, and put it on a shirt for fun, the end, woop. :/ I dont mean to offend anyone by this, but it really needs to be said.

Another thing, I know the word "swag" is overused and highly annoying... i know... i just made this for fun not knowing that it would be so popular. I personally don't like the word, so sorry for that. :/

I also know that it is a pretty bland design, sorry :/ i would make another with bigger white letters, but then i wouldn't have a good chance of winning because these have so many votes.

I also want to thank you guys!!! I have the ABSOLUTE BEST EPICPIES OF WATCHERS EVER! I LOVE YOU GUYS! with out you i wouldn't be here in the front page! i owe it to all of you that featured me! it really means a lot <3 :hug: huggies from mistyrei :heart:


well... glad i got all that off my chest :)

All Hail Cathulhu

Design Challenges / Cute Monsters

:new: This shirt is now available at T-shirts.com!
Store link :pointr: [link]



Couldn't help participating given the theme of this contest — Cute Monsters. Too fun to let it pass!

Here is my contribution to dA's current pool of adorable abominations. I took an embodiment of terror and combined it with the quintessential example of cuteness. All hail the terribly lovable... Cathulhu! :lol:

What sound do you think Cathulhu makes? I imagine something between purring and gurgling :p

5 colors, gradients are halftoned.
Everything drawn in Photoshop, including background texture (using default Natural brushes).

Thank you to everyone for the support and appreciation!

UPDATE:
Still interested in seeing this design make it to print in shirt form?
Well It's now up for voting on THREADLESS.
So Vote now and maybe it can happen =)

click the [link] and vote!


----------------------------------------------------
So here's the third and most likely final design I'm doing for the contest.

To be honest I don't think the previous two are actually eligible heh (more than the suggested 7 colours)

But yes, these have all been quite fun.

Thanks for viewing and happy voting!
All the best to everyone else submitting their designs.
=)

Strawberry Juice Monster
by =ElephantWendigo
Design Challenges / Cute Monsters
©2012-2013 =ElephantWendigo
I suck with vectors designs so I painted this in Paint Tool SAI and make adjustments in PS.
I make the design with pink and light blue, to make it unisex.

The monster is a Strawberry Juice abominable cuteness that discovered the dA community and...Guess what?! XD

I think it has soooo many colors...maybe too much for the contest but this design needed them all together.

If you liked it, could you please push 'I'd wear this!'??
Thank you so much <3
