Rick and Porty Shirt Design by LavaLamp

Rick and Porty Shirt Design Review.

The Rick and Porty shirt design is for the Rick and Morty and Portal fans. They done gone crossover in this one broh.

Let's consider the concept, it is obvious but funny. At first, nothing seems unusual for the pair as they run to other dimensions via portals. But upon closer inspection, the rifts are not the usual Green ones that they are known for producing. Instead, these are the ones from the hit video game Portal, a completely different franchise all together. Thus making this a necessary mash up. Personally, I feel that it should had used the Portal gun from the game rather than Rick's usual portal gun but that is just my humble opinion. However, there is enough here for anyone familiar and observant enough to get the references.

As for the artwork, it is not original by any means nor is it that difficult to illustrate. But the scene does come together well for the concept. For instance, the colors are true to the Rick and Morty series, just as they work well for the Blue and Yellow port holes from Portal. Also, there is a good gradient for fade off for the background, preventing this from being a boring "square" design". So it is aesthetically pleasing. What isn't shown are lasers or whatever is chasing them, which is a disappointment as it could add much to the action of the scene. Or at least provide and explanation. Regardless to the fact that nothing out of the ordinary is really happening I have to go ahead and give the artwork 5 stars just for being awesome. Wubba Lubba dub dub!

As for the print, it is good but the company usually prints better and bolder for the Blue end of the spectrum. There is not enough of an issue to take away any stars though. If you happen to have an issue with your print you could always return it if it is truly defective. This one was printed up in the middle of the 2016 Christmas rush and features a tag rather than being their normal tagless offering.

This Rick and Porty Shirt will make a nice gift for inter-dimensional travel buffs and fans of these franchises. Especially the Rick and Morty fans.

Tacosmind Tee Design by Melonseta.

Tacosmind Tee Design Review.

The Tacosmind tee design is for Deadpool fans that enjoy Nirvana and beer.

This design is based off of Nirvana's Nevermind album cover art (shown below). It depicts a a fully costumed Deadpool instead of a naked human baby. It is another Nevermind mash up that represents the beginning and end of the 90's decade wonderfully. The concept would had worked whether they replaced the dollar with a taco or a chimichanga since Mexican food is Deadpool's thing. This is a decent mash up and it is better than a large portion of the other mash ups out there. There is an unlimited amount of Nevermind album covers to be made as it works well with almost everything.

Nirvana Nevermind Album Cover.

As for the artwork, it is a cartoon parody of the Nevermind album cover. The coloring and shading are good although Black would had been accurate for the non-Red areas of Wade's costume. The water effects are simple, which prevents it from looking too cluttered and busy. Leaving the actual water color whatever the fabric color choice is. this mash up actually includes the fishing line which is a plus as it is was essential to the original album cover concept.

The Tacosmind tee shirt is ideal for Generation X'ers, fans of grunge, and of Deadpool the most insane comic book character of all time. One doesn't even need to be a fan of all three to appreciate this tee either. The tacos meme itself makes this shirt worth buying.

With the new Deadpool movie hitting theaters, Deadpool will grow even more popular than he is already.

Ne..burp! Mind Tee Design by Raffiti.

Ne..burp! Mind Tee Design Review.

The Ne..burp! Mind tee design is for Rick and Morty fans that enjoy Nirvana and alcohol.

The concept for the Ne..burp! Mind tee is based off of Nirvana's Nevermind album cover art (shown below). It depicts a Rick Sanchez instead of a naked human baby (Tiny Rick would had been even funnier). Instead of the dollar on a fishing line like on the album cover there is a flask of whiskey that holds Rick's attention underwater. It would had been better to have the flask attached to a fishing line as well. It is a decent mash up that represents the blending of the 90's with the present. The funniest part about this design is that Rick's junk is pixelated for censorship.

Nirvana Nevermind Album Cover.

So the artwork is a cartoon parody of the Nevermind album cover. The coloring and shading are good enough for a cartoon. The water is simplified with adequate water wave effects. This prevents it from looking too busy. The fabric color makes up the color of the water so Navy or Turquoise works the best. As mentioned earlier there is no fishing line so that is disappointing to some degree but not enough for me to detract any stars.

This is a good shirt for Generation X, fans of grunge and of Rick and Morty the funniest thing on the T.V. in the past few years. Even if a person is just 1 out of the 3 they would still dig this design.

I wouldn't recommend this as a school garment since it has an alcohol reference (that and Rick and Morty is for Mature Audiences).

Duffmind Tee Design Review.

The Duffmind tee design is for Simpsons fans that enjoy Nirvana and beer.

This design is based off of Nirvana's Nevermind album cover art (shown below). It depicts a baby Barney instead of a naked human baby and a can of DUFF beer instead of a dollar bill. It is a funny mash up that represents the 90's decade.

Men of Science Tee design by Everdream.

Men of Science Tee Design Review.

The Men of Science tee design is for the Futurama, Rick and Morty and Archer fans. Specifically the ones that like science and the mad scientist type of characters.

The concept is hilarious, awesome and one of those I WISH type scenarios. If a crossover cartoon would come into existence that featured these three characters it would make my year. Professor Farnsworth, Rick Sanchez and Dr. Algernop Krieger are not just insanely funny they are characters that no one in their right mind would ever cross or screw over. The fing-longer is a great choice for Professor Farnsworth's gadget. Of course Rick's gadget is his inter-dimensional portal gun. Krieger's Magic Breathe Strips are extremely funny but not necessarily the best choice for his device. For these three mad scientists to team up would be like releasing the Apocalypse upon the world. The world would die laughing via a comedy disease from another dimension released by some sort of doomsday device.

As for the artwork, it is not the best but it is far from the worst. The characters' skin tones are blacked out but the clothing isn't. Which is weird that it's that inconsistent but oddly it doesn't take that much away from this concept. The coloring isn't the best but it is good enough to distinguish the characteristics. As for the shading, it is non existent unless you count the aforementioned black out skin tones. The layout is simple and it works. There doesn't need to be anything else to execute the idea meaning the gag is delivered instantly with what there is. Which is what makes it a good tee. More action and detail might mess it up.

This Men of Science tee will make a nice gift for science buffs and fans of these cartoons: Futurama, Rick and Morty and of course Archer.

Nebeermind Tee Design by Melonseta.

Nebeermind Tee Design Review.

The Nebeermind tee design is for Futurama fans that enjoy Nirvana and beer.

This design is based off of Nirvana's Nevermind album cover art (shown below). It depicts a baby Bender instead of a naked human baby. It is a funny mash up that represents the beginning and end of the 90's decade wonderfully. The concept would had worked whether they replaced the dollar with a beer or not since Bender was always stealing cash just as much as he was drinking. He can't resist either at least not for long. This is a good mashup and it is better than a large portion of the other mashups out there because it actually took some thought to produce.

Nirvana Nevermind Album Cover.

So the artwork is a cartoon parody of the Nevermind album cover. The colors and shading are ideal because just as the photo of the underwater baby had light and water patterns under him so does Bender in the form of a brighter hue than his traditional Foghat Gray. The water is simplified with adequate water wave effects, which prevents it from looking too cluttered and busy. Leaving the actual water color whatever the fabric color choice is. There is no fishing line so that is disappointing to some degree but not enough for me to detract any stars.

This is a good shirt for Generation X, fans of grunge and of Futurama the greatest cartoon of all time. Even if a person is just 1 out of the 3 they would still dig this design.

Busted Ghost Tee Design by Naolito.

Busted Ghost Tee Design Review.

The Busted Ghost tee design is for the Pac-Man and Ghostbusters fans.

The concept is far from original as there have been various Ghostbusters and Pac-Man mash ups and parodies. This one uses the ghost trap as a coffin. Speedy aka "Pinky" is the ghost in the coffin but the character is shown as a dark blue. This is because when Pac-Man eats a power pellet the ghost turn blue then they can be chomped. However, once chomped they no longer have their "sheet" or color as they just roam around as floating eyes. This was done this way because eyes only would look weird in a coffin. The best part of this design though and by far the funniest thing about it is how Shadow aka "Blinky" stares at the coffin like he knows something is not quite right.

As for the artwork, it is a decent illustration but it isn't perfect. For starters, where is the other lid flap and hinges for the coffin? At first glance people might not notice that it is missing. Some may never notice. Second, the shading is great except the lighting on the ghost in the trap is different. It is just a cartoon type design so it really doesn't matter so much but I notice it. IT was done that way to show the contour of Pinky because that is the only visible side. Illustrators often break the rules of physics to force a perspective. It does however look good, it has great coloring. The layout is perfect. the middle ghost Pokey aka "Clyde" is raised a little in order to have him stand behind the others so they aren't in a perfect straight line. Making it look more natural and overall better than lined up like ducks in a row. Each ghost also has their own facial expression.

This Busted Ghost tee will make a good gift for Pac-Man or Ghostbusters fans. Basically anyone that was around in or at least born in the 80's will appreciate it.

There are no Kids' tees for this design from this retailer so it gets docked for that.

Wear this tee anywhere and everywhere that tshirts are socially acceptable.

Let's Operate Already Tee Design by KindaCreative

Let’s Operate Already Tee Design Review.

The Let's Operate Already tee design is for the Futurama fans whether they have fond memories of the Operation game or not.

The concept is funny and true to the Dr. John Zoidberg character as he is as incompetent as a Larry, Curly, or Moe as surgeons. Hence the "Skill Game" quote. There is a healthy mix and balance of both the Futurama Franchise and the board game Operation. If there was a real life Futurama Edition of Operation it would look like this and be a huge hit. Why not? They have The Big Bang Theory Monopoly sets and Firefly Yahtzee so it is very plausible.

As for the artwork, it takes the two Futurama characters as they are and throws in some Operation elements. Like KindaCreative substitutes a red ball for Fry's nose and includes rectangle holes all over his body. Inside the holes are objects instead of body parts like organs, bones. Such as parasites (worms). There are tons of Futurama references in this one shirt. Like the Slurm can, bee stinger, Seymour's bone, Brain Slug and the Robot Devil's hand (a reference to The Devil's Hands Are Idle Playthings episode). Those are all geek icing on a geek cake. Aside from the dead on illustration there isn't much that can be said. It looks good on every available color too.

This Let's Operate Already tee will make a nice gift for any Futurama fan. It's funny and true to the show.
