Animals As Tee Designs and Inspiration.

Moon Gazer Tee, Animals As Tee Designs

From furry beasts to insects, animals as tee designs are some of the best looking T-shirts out there. Mankind has been inspired by and borrowing design patterns from the animal kingdom for ages. Think of leopard and zebra prints in the fashion world and other markets. Think of the honeycomb patterns and sharkskin texture we utilize in our construction and aerodynamic industries. Designers and inventors look at nature, especially the animal kingdom when looking for fresh and innovative ideas. They do this in search of patterns, colors, and textures. Often combing one elements from one animal with another. Like the pattern of a snake skin with the texture of a feather or fur.

Sometimes it’s what animals make from bird nests, to spiderwebs that catch the imagination. If it wasn’t for a fly walking upside down on a ceiling then Stan Lee would had never came up with Spider-Man.

The fashion market, though seemingly overcrowded, is full of: frogs, sharks, kittens, wolves, etc., on all sorts of apparel especially t-shirts and there is always room for more. If one was so inclined to make their own version of the same or create something completely new it would fit in well with the others.

Individual components of the animals make just as much of an impact as the complete animals, perhaps even more so. From paw prints to a single eye, the moods and themes are almost limitless. Snakes and spiders tend to provoke fear, birds such as hawks instill that preciseness and power. Think of school and corporate mascots. There are reasons these animals were chosen, that reason is their symbolism.

Animals As Tee Designs and Inspiration.

So whatever the mood and objective desired, there is an animal that will represent what needs conveyed. Take a walk around your own neighborhood and see how animals interact with each other and you. Search online for more exotic and even dangerous animals. The inspiration you seek will strike you as soon as you lay eyes on the animal that will be the mold for your next design.

Super Playbros Tee Design by Moutchy.

Super Playbros Tee Design Review.

The Super Playbros tee design is for all the nerds out there that want to see Princess Peach on a Playboy Magazine cover. Nintendo Power ain't got jack on this.

The concept for the Super Playbros tee design is to put a realistic Princess Toadstool (Peach) in a retro style Playboy cover Pin Up Girl pose in a mock cover for a parody of Playboy Magazine. She sits legs crossed on a giant Red troopa shell and has a Invincible star floating above the palm of her hand. The date of the issue is September 1985, an important date for NES as that is the year that Super Mario Bros. was released.

As for the artwork. There are no complaints... nope none. Awesome colors, blending, and shading throughout. The artwork displays an entire arsenal of skills that go well beyond most people's abilities. The layout is just like one or a few of the earlier issues of Playboy with far less cover lines. As a bonus this design gives viewers 1-Ups.

Wear this tee to Comic-Cons, E3, or almost anywhere. However, with the adult nature of this design I wouldn't recommend it as school clothes.

Is available on T-shirts, Hoodies, Tank tops, Posters, Dog T-shirts and Crewnecks. There are many fabric colors available. They all work well with this design. The review breakdown is as follows:

Climbing Chameleon Tee Design by David Penfound

Climbing Chameleon Tee Design Review.

The Climbing Chameleon tee design is for the people that love and admire lizards.

The chameleon image is super detailed and of photograph quality. The chameleon is shown climbing the tee itself and extending its tongue to snag an insect.

The artwork itself is awesome. The combined effects of the wrinkles and drag on the fabric as wel las the drop shadow give the 3D illusion of the chameleon actually being on the tee. Super realistic saliva drops on the tongue and hyper coloring on the chameleon's skin make this tee stand out rather than blend in (Do you see what I did there?) from the typical animal tee.

This is a great nature shirt to wear anywhere.

Krieger's Laboratory Tee Design by kgullholmen.

Krieger’s Laboratory Tee Design Review.

The Krieger's Laboratory tee design is for the Dexter's Laboratory and Archer fans. Who doesn't side with the mad scientists?

The concept is a good 50/50 mashup of Dexter (the cartoon scientist not the serial killer of serial killers) and Dr. Algernop Krieger. It blends the twisted world of Krieger's experiments into Dexter's lab. They have a lot of themes in common. For 2 cartoons from different decades, the humor proves timeless.

As for the artwork, it is done in the Dexter's Laboratory style. The flat background simple backgrounds paired with a colorful foreground character. And by color I mean blood splatter and toxic green substances. The angry bitter face works with both franchises. But more impressive than illustrating in the Dexter's Laboratory style is the subtle signature and how it is incorporated into the design. The way a signature should be.

Anyone that enjoys both cartoons will want to add this tee to their collection as it is one of those generation gap fillers that bring like-minded folks together (at least the mad scientists types)..

Musical Sunset Tee Design by DANDINGEROZZ.

Musical Sunset Tee Design Review.

The Musical Sunset tee design is for the people that like music and nature or life in general as this has lots of it. Especially guitar players since that is half of the given theme.

The concept of this tee is creative to say the least. The treeline and cityscape at sunset are reflected in the water creating the shape of a guitar. This design has soul and was obviously planned out with passion to get the right shapes in the right areas.

As for the artwork, Nice use of warm colors and silhouettes. There are lots of intricate details. Like an animal (deer?), a Ferris wheel, hot air balloons and more. It is well balanced. So much so that it is almost perfectly symmetrical. The reflections are slightly blurred making it more realistic which is a good thing.

This Musical Sunset tee will make a nice gift for the artsy and nature loving types. This is a tee for the musicians and even the hippies. It is for everyone. Even the deaf who don't get to enjoy music can get a small sense of music and sound when looking at the full scene. This is actual art and not just rehashed pop culture icons like most of the tees in the world and this site.

This is a good casual shirt that fits in everywhere. It should even be acceptable as a school tee.

Adventure Wolf Tee Design Review.

The Adventure Wolf tee design is for the people that love and admire wolves.

The wolf image is super detailed and of photograph quality. The lone wolf is on guard and has this majestic vibe to it. A little empowering for those who relate to the wolf as a spirit animal.

The composition of a Wolf and Moon or a Wolf and Sun isn't that original nor is the concept itself, but it does look badass. The lighting from behind gives it an almost halo type of effect. But it is the wolf's cold hard stare that makes this tee.

Compared to the other wolf tees out there nothing else even comes close to the ones from The Mountain. Their imagery is much larger and sharper. That definitely makes them the place to shop for animal lovers.

This is a great nature shirt to wear anywhere.

Lonely Girl Tee Design by barmalisiRTB

Lonely Girl Tee Design Review.

The Lonely Girl tee design is for the people that like calm and serene imagery that involve women and those who like and befriend animals.

This design is actual art and not pop art so hooray for that.

As for the artwork, there are a lot of things going on besides just a sexy girl sanding in the water. There is emotion. The girl looks sad as she stares at the bird, her only friend, as she is longing for human contact. Hence the title of the tee being Lonely Girl. The hair is intricate and actually prints as intricate. The reflections and waves create the watery surface illusion via curvy horizontal lines. And on the plus side there is no busy background to detract from the subject matter. The colors are a strange combination though... Magenta and Blue instead of complimentary colors. The flesh tone is good though. But that's just artistic preference. On the Bright Royal Blue Ladies Perfect Tee, the blue of the hair is lost somewhat as it blends with the blue fabric. So try for a darker or lighter blue or even black for best results.

This Lonely Girl tee will make a nice gift for the artsy nature loving types, especially girls who prefer the company of animals rather than people. Lonely or not.

This is a good casual shirt that fits in anywhere. It should even be acceptable as a school tee.

HELP! Tee Design by Arian Rrecaj.

Help! Tee Design Review.

The Help! tee is the silly people and moon admirers (lunatics?).

This design believe it or not has some mythological parallels and perhaps roots, intended or not. The Sun and Moon both have legends of being born, dying, and reborn, flying or being pulled and submerging. So to personify the moon and have it scream for help is not only funny (and mean) but also in a way very natural. The human mind likes to create stories to explain the WHY and HOW things work in nature.

The Help! design is ideal to wear when doing anything astronomy related.

The artwork might not be the greatest or most complex of designs but it does deliver the punchline effectively. I like to view it as the Moon is just being a smart ass, bored out of its mind.

Breaking Bread Tee Design by wakho.

Breaking Bread Tee Design Review.

This Breaking Bread tee design is for anyone that likes the hit show Breaking Bad and baking or at the very least baked goods. Probably the world's most expensive baked goods. With the ultimate in flavor molecule perfection, at least 99.1% chemically pure.

This design turns the drug lords of Walt and Jesse into harmless kid friendly bakers Kawaii style. They are basically just standing there facing forward with no action whatsoever other than smiling while holding the baked goods. This parody stays true to show with character likenesses and logo style.

While it may remove the awesomely horrible and complex personalities of the antiheroes, this design does keep the fun of the duo alive.

Being kid friendly, this design is available on children's apparel as well. I'm not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing considering the nature of the actual show but this tee is cute and innocent enough to work as kids' clothing.

This a good pop culture tee that should definitely get people talking and can be worn at any casual setting.

Satan's Little Helper Tee Design by Olly Moss and Ross Zietz

Satan’s Little Helper Tee Design Review.

The Satan's Little Helper tee is for the fans of Greek Mythology and cute things. Even if Cerberus the hound of Hades is an adorable 3-headed puppy sans the serpent tail, this tee gets classified as \m/ METAL \m/. Even if it is culturally inaccurate as it mixes up the Antichrist mythology with that of the Hades mythology such as the 666 reference and the title of the tee.

Suddenly, the underworld doesn't seem so bad. Sure the puppy is a freak of nature and badass. But just look at it. It's just an innocent little creature. Worthy of hours of playing Frisbee and being spoiled. How can anything with much pet power be all bad? It can't! But just remember that 3 mouths equals 3 times the amount that will come out the other end.

This artwork is a great collaboration between Olly Moss and Ross Zietz. They gave each head its own expression and therefore unique personality. They kept the design clean and simple with no shading except for the drop shadows. It has a nice fur effect using the less is more approach. From a design perspective, this is everything that a great tee should be in terms of design elements and layout. It looks good up close and from far away.

The Satan's Little Helper design is ideal for any casual event or get together. There will always be some oddball out there that will take offense to the tee as it features the guardian of the gates to Hades but to Hell with them overzealous prudes.
