dingybatty Feb 25, 2008
There’s no way I WOULDN’T buy this shirt. A++
Feralityillustration Feb 25, 2008
If this somehow doesn’t win, you should still consider getting some of these shirts done by a local printer. I would buy one!
sirbeauris Feb 25, 2008
Great illustration and placement…Did you create this in Illustrator or Freehand?
missmonster Feb 25, 2008
Hi! This is actually a gouache painting..but my other shirt is illustrator :D Glad you like it!

Howling_Fenrir Feb 25, 2008
Hope this does make it! This would totally make a great gift for a friend of mine who’s birthday is coming up soon and I have no clue of what to get for him.
missmonster Feb 25, 2008
Thanks guys! I really appreciate the love :D
Dara Feb 25, 2008

yaniv Feb 25, 2008
This is going to be an awesome t-shirt. I’m so getting one!
kingpinup Feb 26, 2008

Kineko Feb 26, 2008
GReat beautiful line and color. I’m so buying one if it come up! Or else, ever try spreadshirt? or Lafraise.com?
endejester Feb 26, 2008
Outstanding colors, great design. Lord I hope this makes it <3 its a breath of fresh air <3
gutochaves Feb 26, 2008
great!
missmonster Feb 26, 2008
Thanks for the love, guys. Hey and if you are going to hate, at least say why. If you know more than i do about shirt design, then school me. Back it up with your own great art and give me some constructive criticism. Don’t be so youtube about it.
tekuryuu Feb 26, 2008
Hey Mel, that’s a great idea!... I have only one thought… You should move him UP on the shirt maybe… I always tuck my shirts in, so much of the monster would get lost in the depths on us folk with shorter torsos… ne? love it tho, vote in!
Midori Feb 26, 2008
oh man i so want this on a shirt this is freaken AWESOME. i need new awesome shirts.
aconitez Feb 26, 2008
you got my vote, i’d definitely buy it.
mgsuth01 Feb 26, 2008
Woot! We like it! Bravo!-Cadaver Dog
loveleepeeps Feb 26, 2008

c2designs Feb 26, 2008
I guess it’s just not my flavor
Shinjirou Feb 26, 2008
I already have one of your designs on a shirt and I can’t wait for another! This one is killer, I really hope it’s selected!
Horsepuppy Feb 26, 2008
Booyah!
theassassinnox Feb 26, 2008
If (for some reason) this isn’t printed here….can you please get it done somewhere else? It’s an awesome design. I’d totally love one. (and a foo dog as well!)
~S
jimiyo Feb 26, 2008
i like this one. and i like your sassiness. your website is pleasing too. the colors makes me feel like im all warm and fuzzy like im taking a bath in Calgon. cheers
tiina Feb 26, 2008
I love your interesting compositions. Nothing is boring and just slapped in the middle. :)
missmonster Feb 27, 2008
Hey Tek, that’s a good point. I didnt even think about that! Thanks for pointing it out, i’ll consider that with my next design, hmmmmm…
Buddles Feb 27, 2008
Hey hey girl. Good luck with the votes. :)
aman Feb 27, 2008
Wow, didn’t think this reaches so high! anyway, very nice work, hope it gets printed :)
Roaring-Flame-Cat Feb 27, 2008
I’d so buy this. XD
tastyhills Feb 28, 2008
lol "dont be so youtube about it." good quote. would the tenticals on the right wrap around? i think it should be moved over if not, but i do like the off center. +1
missmonster Feb 28, 2008
Haha, thanks tastyhills. I’d love for the tentacles to wrap around, thats a cool idea. I wonder if DBH has any plans for this option in the future? Or do they have this and i missed it?
yaniv Feb 29, 2008
They’re probably printing this while the shirt is flat so it’s going to be hard for them to sync the back and the front properly. It probably makes the printing costs higher. Though I would love having the tentacles wrap to the back as well.
fouad666 Mar 01, 2008
Print pleaseee
CuterThanYou Mar 01, 2008
Aweeesome design! Really hope it gets printed!
Caserooni Mar 01, 2008
how does this have 189 votes?
yaniv Mar 02, 2008
I don’t get it, how come you didn’t win shirt of the day Fab 29 ???? This was top of the list!
atomichild Mar 02, 2008
hmmm this should print already
endejester Mar 03, 2008
@ Caserooni – Because almost 200 people whom bothered to vote think its awesome. :3
And Yeah, I agree atomic. T_T Its still in the top faves and nothing.
endejester Mar 03, 2008
And as a random addition I’d love to see this bad boy on black. The Red looks awesome but I think it would be uber to see this on other colors too. Plus the ‘frame’ around him, would I think
reallymake that work. :3missmonster Mar 03, 2008
Actually it’s funny you mention that…I thought about other colors for this shirt after i submitted. I think that this might look cool on that dark grey color too…what do you think? I wonder if they let us have color options for the printed shirts?
endejester Mar 03, 2008
I think they would <3 flipping through the sight Ive seen people show multiple color options. I’m
notsure how they set it up though? But Ooooo <3 yes dark grey would be SEXAH… Foo on other colors would pown too O_O part of what throws people off may be bright greeny-blue on red. Its HUGELY striking but it may be tossing people off?(and yay! first design submitted for meee pending approval!
random self pimp)camerong Mar 04, 2008
Love it!
Robotika Mar 05, 2008
Love, love, love this one. It should win and be turned into a shirt! Why hasn’t it been done yet, dagnabbit!
Nightgaunt Mar 06, 2008
shakes page
oHow many votes does it taaaakkkkke? Come to me mah sexy oil monster!Seriously I love this thing, it’s got this sort of…Celti-Cthulhu vibe, with Black Shuck tossed in for fun.
Fortinbras Mar 07, 2008
Signed up for DBH juuust for this. Can’t wait to get one.
XZeroX52 Mar 12, 2008
when the hell is this gonna fricken print haha
missmonster Mar 12, 2008
Haha, thanks for the eagerness, guys! DBH has a TON of shirts to go through so it takes time. I can’t wait either! :)
opifan64 Mar 14, 2008
sweet design! +1
26baju Mar 16, 2008
this sux
kalabrianwolf Mar 17, 2008
i really really want this printed. one of the coolest designs i’ve seen in a while.
endejester Mar 18, 2008
Wow… nearly 250 votes and its still not a shirt? I’ve been through all the shirts it will still link me too and I don’t think I’ve seen another this high (though no doubt that’s why the pissy comments too?)
I still think its enormously fun, and I’d buy it in a heartbeat
ivanator Mar 18, 2008
ur shirt is going to get printed cause it dominates all other desings and bitch slaps them in the face i think the closest one is 100 votes dats not urs
stickyeekynicky Mar 19, 2008
maybe I see too many of these in Asia..
jsymonsdesign Mar 20, 2008
love the colors
Skadegan Mar 21, 2008
Honestly, I wasnt too excited about this design first. But I looked at it some more, really looking at it. And thought. Wondered how it would be actually wearing it. Then I totally fell in love. Its a great design. Seriosuly needs to be on a shirt.
Smccrum Mar 21, 2008
While I like the drawing, it really seems like something that one of those weird kids who likes dragons waaaay too much and sort of vaguely smells like Funyuns would wear. I dunno, maybe I’d like it better if I saw it on a shirt rather than a template, or if it had more going on up top.
missmonster Mar 24, 2008
Haha, i think i heard that same Funyuns joke on Mind of Mencia or something. Anyway, glad you like it! :)
Ceddyishman Mar 27, 2008
You know a print is coming WHEN… lol Love it!
c2designs Apr 04, 2008
its funny that it’s taking so long
the_jcw Apr 10, 2008
this shirt is awesome, it has to be printed soon!
madcow Apr 10, 2008
This shirt has alot of votes, why is it taking so long to win & print? I really want this shirt…
goenz Apr 11, 2008
wonder how this can get 200++ vote
madcow Apr 14, 2008
Finally, it prints! Mel, your shit rocks!
missmonster Apr 14, 2008
Hooray!
missmonster Apr 14, 2008
PS, the dark shirt looks so much cooler than the red..
Skadegan Apr 14, 2008
Oh man, looks totally awesome. Congrats.
Feralityillustration Apr 14, 2008
Oh HELL YESS!! I am ordering one right now. I love this shirt.
Howling_Fenrir Apr 14, 2008
Awesome! Looks totally cool on black! :)
Smccrum Apr 14, 2008
I really like the placement on the Women’s shirt a lot.
endejester Apr 15, 2008

BlueJays Apr 17, 2008
Great job! It looks best in womans.
jfish Apr 17, 2008
Such a good print, those colors turned out amazing!
shantyshawn Apr 17, 2008
Looks Great! Congrats!!
fofocone Apr 18, 2008
don’t believe this ** was printed! they r really going to a low level in here…
fofocone Apr 18, 2008
lots of dumbs and amateurs designers
Setup85 Apr 18, 2008
Hey fofocone! Grow up! yay!
fofocone Apr 18, 2008
I tell you to grow up and have formal studies at university instead of praising common-sense-amateurish illustrations
atomichild Apr 18, 2008
looks great on the shirt
ShotgunLarry Apr 18, 2008
Fofocone why are you still here if you hate the shirt so much? It’s not like you get a notification that someone left a comment here, which means you keep checking this page. Surely you have better things to do?
igo2cairo Apr 19, 2008
Congrats! This looks really amazing.
fofocone Apr 19, 2008
The question is not about me. Im just trying to show better "designs" to the common public. There was no planning on this, the guy just thought "I’ll make an rad/freaking/stylish illustration, cause people just have eyes not brains to interpret ideas"
Howling_Fenrir Apr 20, 2008
Maybe fofocone should go make some "better" designs to show to the common public than watching this page. :p Have something in your gallery before saying stuff like that.
Awesome job, missmonster! :) Congrats.
UD77 Apr 20, 2008
sickk
mykie1234 Apr 25, 2008
