About my design

by meannate
An idea from a bumper sticker that read "Zeus is God - Read the Iliad"



Living in a city like Los Angeles, everyone is compelled to advertise their religious affiliations.



Hopefully this will have universal appeal...

the image that we know of jesus today was originally fabricated to look more like zeus, with the full beard and long hair. i thought that was interesting!



nice lines. i wish the lightening bolt wasn't so sketchy, though.

yeah maybe it's a bit large-ish

but that's not stopping me from a $5 + i'd buy it

freaking awesome (i'm in awe at the power of zeus)

Zeus slept around a lot and had a meaner temper... I'd rather read about him any day.

Well color me Zeus. I would love the ability to harness lightning, by the way. What a lucky guy...er...god.

I like the idea, but if someone's already selling the exact same thing on a bumpersticker, isn't there a copyright issue?
meannate
meannate on May 09 '06
Not the exact same thing, dear redsugar ... and the bumper sticker sucks by the way... it's just text.

I'm not criticizing you. I like the drawing and I'm sure the whole thing's an improvement, I'm just thinking about them suing threadless.

I would have preferred a 'Read the Theogony' caption, but then I'm a jerk. Insert thumbs up graphic here.

I like the graphic and the 'zeus is god' text, but I'd prefer it without 'read the illiad'.

zeus is eerie. maybe he should have fewer wrinkles for an immortal. this made me laugh though-- very very clever!

i like your style on the banners, but i honestly think this would be nice if left on a bumper sticker.

Hey, wait a minute... No one asked me for my permission... Where did you get that picture?



5 all the same. Sorry I wouldn't buy it though, that would be a little redundant.

Hey Nate, really like the drawing, only, complaint is. Quit trying to make me feel feeble minded, I mean, what the hell is the "Liad"? Or whatever that says. haha. But all in all excelent shirt designe, I'd wear it!



P.S. How the heck do I score it??

Your really cool tennis friends will know what it means, and you'll be catapulted into the upper echelons of geekdom. If you don't know... pretend you do!

Maybe the text should be carved in stone rather than on scrolls.

I'd say have the lightning bolt going diagonally behind everything, that'd work pretty well...other than that..awesome $5

HOT DAMN!

Now you need to make a Bacchus shirt.

Love the Greek gods like Ron Jeremy loves fried chicken breasts.



I'm not 100% sold on the Zeus profile- it doesn't seem right. At least his eye area. But the overall lines used are ELECTRIFYING.

Anyway, I love the shirt. It's funny and literate and cool.

Great idea. (I mean, I guess it wasn't really your idea originally, but I still like the shirt.)
