woot derby

This is my submission for Shirt dot Woot's Derby #174.

I originally went with the deer wearing roller skates but after the initial laugh I didn't think it was as wearable as the one where the deer is just a deer (with the monster horns or course).

The theme this week was hatching, as in cross hatching or using lines to show volume and dimension. I already do this a lot in my illustration anyway and had fun this week. There was a color limit as well, only one color can be used in the design.

I think this is a design that would work well for both sexes.

Another good weekend of drawing. These were for the Woot "Fake Band T-Shirts" Derby.

I wanted to do a couple of different styles, I went for a joke on one (Letterheads which later on had to be resubmitted as Letterbrains) and for authenticity on the other. Both were received well by the voters.

Anyway, just posting a few sketches, check 'em out below.

All around good guy noisdois aka Trevor contacted me this week about collaborating on an entry for Woot Derby #100, Mystery.

He gave me a couple of ideas for which I did some sketches for, we went with one of the ideas, the second idea which we won't be submitting in the derby was the one I'm posting in this blog. I think it's actually quite a nice design in the end, and with some cool coloring and touch up work could be a contender to submit for a daily.

Anyway, thanks to Trevor for the chance to collaborate, it's friggen fun and I love it.
