Heisenberg Self Portrait Tee Design

Heisenberg Self Portrait Tee Design Review.

The Heisenberg Self Portrait tee design is for the fans of the Breaking Bad franchise.

Triple Self by Norman Rockwell

The concept is based on Norman Rockwell's painting Triple Self Portrait (shown above) but it features Walter White from the hit television series Breaking Bad at different phases of the character's development. The Rockwell painting itself has been parodied many times over especially in the T-shirt world featuring characters like The Joker, Doctor Who, the Green Power Ranger and so on and so forth.

The artwork is a nice but it is a more simplified cartoon version of the original painting. Each piece of the original painting has a Breaking Bad counterpart as a reference to the T.V. series. Such as: The Crystal Ship (the rolling meth lab RV) instead of the eagle and American Flag ornamental mirror frame, the gas mask instead of the helmet and portraits of other characters instead of self portraits of other famous artists to name a few. Being a screen printed tee the colors are limited and the shading is next to non-existent unlike in the original painting that is being parodied.

The Amazing Bender Tee Design by SergioDoe.

The Amazing Bender Tee Design Review.

The Amazing Bender tee design is for the Spider-Man Fans and more importantly Futurama fans.

This concept is an Amazing Fantasy (Shown below) spoof called Amazing Future where Bender from Futurama is swinging with his arms as opposed to the Spider-Man swinging from his webs. He is carrying Philip J. Fry with one arm while giving him a menacing look. The text reads "Introducing Bender", "Though the world may mock me. The Great Bender...", "They will all soon bite my shiny metal ass!", and "Also in this issue an important message to you, from the Hypnotoad-All glory to the Hypnotoad." all suitable for Futurama. Other Futurama references included are the MomCorp building, a Slurm billboard and the NNYC Tube Transport System.

Amazing Fantasy

As for the artwork, the colors stand out well and are appropriate enough for the Futurama franchise. The layout is the same as the Amazing Fantasy cover only with NNYC aspects instead.The shading is a bit weak but it doesn't detract from the design. The edges of the design are "sponged" out (evident of the repeating brush pattern) in an effort to blend the design with the fabric. This effect would had looked better if there were no repetition in order to look more natural. Most people would not notice this however so no points detracted.

Overall the Amazing Bender is a good nod to a classic magazine (comic book) and a nice Futurama reference tee.

Winter Is Here Tee Design by AndreusD.

Winter Is Here Tee Design Review.

The Winter Is Here tee design is for the Game of Thrones fans that enjoy the Calvin and Hobbes comics.

The concept is that Calvin is pretending to be in Westeros and him and Hobbes are play battling each other with wooden weapons in front of a White Walker snowman. Calvin is dressed like a Tyrion Lannister and Hobbes is dressed like Jon Snow. There is also a crow or raven in one of the trees so there are plenty of Game of thrones references in this tee.

As for the artwork, the style is emulating Bill Watterson's obviously from the Calvin and Hobbes comic strip. The colors are appropriate and the fabric color choices for this design work well with the artwork as the negative space is a large part of the design. Such as the base color for the White Walker snowman. The shading is good for the style, even though I think that there should be a shadow on Hobbe's face to match Calvin's and the White Walker's shading. The layout itself is well balanced.

This Winter Is Here tee will make a nice gift for the Game of Thrones fans.

Wear this tee to Comic-Cons and anywhere else.

Starry Wars Tee Design by ddjvigo.

Starry Wars Tee Design Review.

The Starry Wars tee design is for the Star Wars fans that enjoy the art of Vincent van Gogh.

The concept is to combine Tatooine with the Starry Night sky which is the perfect backdrop for anything from the galaxy far far away. This is one of the better Starry Night parodies and mash ups and if you've been paying attention to this blog you may have seen some reviewed already.

Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh

As for the artwork, the style is emulating Vincent van Gogh's obviously with the broad stroke swirls but the colors are muddier than Vincent's palette. Black fabric is the better choice in this case as it helps all the colors to pop with much greater contrast. Boba Fett looks bad ass. Half to most of him utilizes the negative space which is the most impressive part of this design. That and the fact that this may be based off of Starry Night but it isn't an exact copy like many of the other variants out there.

This Starry Wars tee will make a nice gift for the Star Wars fans.

Wear this tee to Comic-Cons, Sci-Fi conventions and to art museums.

Is available on T-shirts, Hoodies, Tank tops and Crewnecks. Black or Navy Blue are the only fabric color options but they are the only two colors that would work. The review breakdown is as follows:

I Want To Be A Leaf Tee Design by Girardin27.

I Want To Be A Leaf Tee Design Review.

The I Want To Be A Leaf tee design is for Sci-Fi fans that enjoy Firefly and the X-Files.

The concept of this design is based on the beloved spaceship Serenity from Firefly as well as Wash's "I am a leaf in the wind watch how I soar" quote and the iconic poster "I Want To Believe" that could be seen in "Spooky" Fox Mulder's F.B.I. office. It is also the title of the second feature film installment of the X-Files franchise. It is clever and a must have for devout Firefly fans.

As for the artwork, it stays true to the I Want To Believe poster style. Decent coloring for a cartoon atmospheric effect. There is also a slight distressed effect.

The people that enjoy Firefly, the Browncoats, will relate to this tee on at least two different levels. First, they want to soar like a leaf and second they want to believe that there will be more Firefly episodes.

This is a good Firefly tribute tee with the layered meanings as well as a worthy nod to the X-Files franchise. It is one of the best mash ups and it actually makes sense.

The Tri-Black tee itself is rather comfortable. But the printed colors are muted and do not quite match the website's thumbnails.

I Want To Be A Leaf Tee Design by Girardin27 (aka Twenty27).

That's All Bub Tee Design by ClayGrahamArt.

That’s All Bub Tee Design Review.

The That's All Bub tee design is for the Wolverine fans that enjoy Looney Tunes.

The concept is simply a parody of the "That's All Folks" in the closing credits of the Warner Bros. Loony Tunes Cartoons (Shown below) featuring Wolverine and his love of calling people "Bub".

As for the artwork, it is more detailed than the Looney Tunes cartoons that's for sure. The shading is above and beyond that which is put into most t-shirt designs especially from the Claw's as cast on Wolverine's face and fist. The foreshortening of the claws is another aspect of the art skill. The colors are appropriate for both franchises. The only questionable part is the red stroke around the design that is only seen on one of the claws, as it seems the claw would stand out on any background even without that effect. I can only assume it is there in case someone chooses the Silver colored fabric. Any color looks fine. Although it would be nice if there was a fabric color to match the Blue that is inside the Red rings.

This That's All Bub tee will make a great gift for older Wolverine, Weapon X and X-Men Fans, kid's these days may not get the Warner Bros. reference.

This design is ideal to wear to Comic-Cons.

Rowena The Witch Tee Design Review.

The Rowena The Witch tee design is for the Supernatural fans and it pays homage to the classic television showBewitched as a cool mash up.

The concept is that both Rowena and Samantha are witches. So taking the opening credits from the show Bewitched (shown below) and replacing it with a cartoon of Rowena instead is a no brainer. Rowena of course has that touch of wickedness and attitude that Samantha just didn't have.

Bewitched

As for the artwork, it emulates the Bewitched style and it has nailed the colors to work for both shows. Like the old Bewitched show it has no shading in the cartoon style. The addition of a Hex bag is a nice little detail that reminds people that it is a Supernatural tee. The moons and stars are different sizes. The fonts match but the text is bigger in the Bewitched version which is also centered. It would had been nice to have it match as it would be easier to read from a distance. As previously mentioned, it is a parody/homage so the design layout is obviously right on the money. It looks as good as the original version.

This Rowena The Witch tee will make a great gift for Supernatural and Bewitched Fans, especially for those who like the ambitious Redheads. Even with the 2005 movie of Bewitched the people in their 20's or younger may not get the reference.

This design is ideal to wear to Comic-Cons and while watching Supernatural (duh).

Beyond The Wall Tee Design by Donovan Alex.

Beyond The Wall Tee Review.

THIS DESIGN IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FROM THIS RETAILER.

The Beyond The Wall tee design is for Game of Thrones fans and Incredible Hulk fans.

The concept is for the fictional "Night's watch comics" (with an image of Mag Mar Tun Doh Weg the Giant as the Publisher Logo) title Beyond The Wall Approved by Castle Black under oath. Featuring Jon Snow, his sword Longclaw and in it a reflection of a White Walker (instead of Wolverine, his claws and the Hulk). This is a parody of the iconic The Incredible Hulk cover issue #340 (shown below). The Night's King is shown in the lower left hand corner in place of a barcode.

Incredible Hulk #340

As far as the artwork, it is fantastic. Yes, the jaws look a bit weird as they are yelling. But once you get used to the expression you will notice that the coloring and shading is among the best there is. The details from the skin tones, hair, reflection and blade, snow, to the Ice brick "The Wall" lettering take this from a mere "T-shirt design" to an actual work of art. The details are insanely obsessive compulsive. Like a person running around in their underwear during a winter storm with a foil hat on their head and maple syrup smeared on their bare chest while singing Yankee Doodle Dandy level of insanity. There is definitely more work put into this than there was in The Incredible Hulk cover. It is not often that a rectangle design on a tee looks good. So that is an accomplishment in itself.

The Beyond The Wall tee is perfect for team Jon Snow and any Game of Thrones fan would like the tee. But only the most devout comic book nerd will get The Incredible Hulk issue references.

Science Club Tee Design by djkopet

Science Club Tee Design Review.

The Science Club tee design is for science buffs and Breaking Bad fans that can't can't get enough of like-minded pop culture characters.

When Walter organized the first ever meeting of the Fictional Scientists Club he didn’t think there’d be much of a turnout, especially since Doctor Frankenstein claimed he was coming in from Transylvania to attend the meeting, but all kinds of characters actually showed up. There was that softheaded scientist Bunsen Honeydew, that quirky young physicist who kept saying bazinga, a sinister cephalopod of a man with metal arms attached to his back, a Doc Brown who claimed he’d been back in time, a cold hearted fellow named Freeze and good old Albie Einstein, cartoon version of Albert. They were all in awe of Mr. White's chemistry skills, and thought he'd probably be voted Most Likely To Succeed, but when he shared his recipe for blue crystals with the club their jaws dropped to the floor...

The concept is to take a bunch of fictional scientists and put them in a room together, with Walter White as the center of attention. Would they approve or cheer him on? Either way this Breaking Bad fan tee is meant remind everyone of Walter's super chemistry skills and his super villain mindset.

As for the artwork, it is clean and professional. White and Blue inks are the only colors used and the color of the fabric blank feels in the rest. The highlights and shading are great for a cartoon and each character's likeness is spot on. Walter's backside is facing us and is complete shadow with highlights providing the non meth clues to his identity. The design is balanced well and is very pelasing to the eye.

This Science Club tee would make a great gift for the science buffs and Breaking Bad fans. Bonus if they happen to like the other fandoms that are included. Such as Spider-Man, The Big Bang Theory, Batman, The Muppets, Back To The Future, and of course Einstein (real or cartoon version).

While this tee is comical, I wouldn't recommend it as a school garment with the Breaking Bad references. Other than that, this will make a great t-shirt for any casual occasion.

Pop Vamp Tee Design by Berry Method

Pop Vamp All Over Print Tee Design Review.

The Pop Vamp All Over Print tee design is for the Marilyn Monroefans and people with a vampire fetish.

The concept is to simply do a pop art variation of a pop culture icon turning Marilyn Monroe a vampire. This isn't exactly original as all kinds of artists have transformed her image into sexy various forms of monsters over the years like zombies, mummies, vampyres and werewolves. It is a no brainer that combining Marilyn Monroe with anything would sell. Her immortalized likeness will always be trendy.

As for the artwork, it is good for what it is. The artist didn't take the original photograph of Marilyn themselves. But the additions and edits do make for an interesting image. The use of Red as blood splatters and in the hair adds contrast to an otherwise Black and White image of a beautiful woman. The result is a blown up image that takes up the entire tee and it looks damn good.

This is a great shirt for wearing in October with Halloween and Day of The Dead being around the corner.
