I was thinking it might be fun to use an image on the back of the shirt from the animated short film 'The Big Snit' and its classic scene from the (in)famous 'Sawing for Teens' show.

If you haven't seen this off the wall film, here it is:

Here are some stills I captured which would suit a CW shirt - let me know if any appeal:

Yeah, no doubt. His name is Richard Condie. He has a few other animated shorts out there as well, some of which are downright weird.

Watching it again yesterday to get the screen captures I noticed many quirky little details in the scenes that weren't obvious otherwise.

Okay, the silence is deafening here. I gather the Sawing For Teens motif is not appealing?

I like the first and third images. But while they would make for a humorous inside joke, I'm not sure its something I would wear out in public...

You mean something like this?:

I grumble every time I revisit that project...though I'm glad in the end I never ended up building it for that client. I was so hoping it would happen at one point though.

Yeah, some kind of geometry/carpentry drawing would be classy.

YES!! A levitating belltower, like something out of Miyazaki...

I'm truly sorry it was never built, but it was a riveting series of posts. I built models of the fan rafters to follow along. Now the paltry little rafter-tails l see on the 1920's houses around here just make me sad.
