The winners for the Dark Knight T Shirts are here. Some of the best drawings and digital renderings Design By Humans has ever seen. From Bane's angry face, to the stealth actions of Batman; each new Dark Knight Rises shirt has story of their own.
The Rising Shadow introduces a large portrait of Bane with Batman running toward the foreground. The ink and brush stokes give this tee energy and texture.
The Bane Shirt, by Mr. Nicolo is known for his intense shirts like Sasquatch and Dino Frenzy. He captures Bane building intensity in his hands, with a brilliant use of blues, accented by orange eyes and energy. The sure grip of Bane comes alive in this T Shirt.
When the bat signal is called the Dark Knight Arises. This Dark Knight Shirt is a sure portrayal of Batman, Gotham and the bat signal.
Once the signal is called the Dark Knight will Come From the Dark. Batman drops to the ground with a storm, accented with the cape flowing from above. This symmetrical balance frames the leading lines so you stare right into Batman's dominance.
The final fight between Batman and Bane under the depths of the bat signal put this design at the top of Christopher Nolan's list. Hello, Mr. Wayne features many fantastic design elements. This tee captures contrast, shadows and highlights to create an intense fight scene. Action, leading lines, and brilliant contrast make a t shirt worth a thousand words.
All 5 Dark Knight Rises tees are for sale for a limited time. You can purchase a piece of the Dark Knight legacy or for the big time fans you can collect the entire series at a discount. The designs are printed on soft cotton shirts for comfort and quality. The movie releases July 20th, but the shirt are available now. Thanks for all the submitted, voted and purchased shirts.

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES CONTEST RULES:
“THIS CONTEST IS OPEN ONLY TO NATURAL PERSONS WHO ARE LEGAL RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND WHO ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE AT THE TIME OF ENTRY.”
So much for that contest…
@defroster oh wow, hopefully that changes … I’d like to compete with all my fellow designers on here. That’s something that should be prominent so people are aware of before entering this contest
Only for US residents?? ¬¬
Where did you read about only us residents? This is what i read: “The Contest is open only to natural persons who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry.”
@choppre
Well, it’s probably not likely that things will change but I’m kinda hoping that it’s the case of legal cut&paste – someone merging some DC rules with DBH rules, not paying much thought if they are exactly matching…
Cause the second entry in Rules & Regulations only requires you to be a verified human being, 18 or older.
Though, that one also mentions “eligible jurisdictions” so it may be referencing the rule I pasted above.
“15. ELIGIBILITY. The Contest is open only to natural persons who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry. Contest may only be entered from and in eligible jurisdictions and is void where prohibited by law. “
To add insult to injury, I can’t even register legally.
Bosnia and Herzegovina apparently does not exist, as far as DBH profiles are concerned.
@Arinesart
Right after the “rights assignment” part. Look for those blocks of capital letters. I was not trying to be rude, I just copy/pasted them. :)

No rudeness taken ;)
That’s strange, it seems that there’s a mix of rules over there. As you said, it looks like a careless copy/paste of different rules. Someone shold clarify this issue asap, as I have a couple of designs in the works, and I don’t wanna waste my time if I can’t submit any entry :/
