My Redbubble favorites
I’ve wanted to a piece showing the work(s) and people that I admire here on Redbubble for a while now. So I decided to Bmail everyone in my favorites list with the same request:
Dear (favorite),
I’m currently thinking about producing a new piece of artwork for Redbubble and I want to feature screen grabs/screen shots of the work in my favourites list (3 to 4 pages in total), in the thumbnail/list view in some way or another… not completely sure yet.
Obviously your fine example(s) of work feature(s) in my list, so I would like to know if you are happy for me to include it or not?
The screen grabs will obviously be at low resolution so when they’re included in the finished artwork they would not be particularly sharp.. I just want to use them as part of the overall concept.
It is going to be a piece (I think…maybe!) loosely to do with copyright/copyright infringement, maybe censorship….?
If you are not happy for me to use the thumbnail, that’s no problem at all as it will/may form part of the design (the censorship bit…. maybe… blanked out?)
As you can tell it’s a thought in progress – if I get a negative response it’ll be back to the drawing board!
Obviously all of you (if any) will get a mention/link to your original piece of work that I’ve favourited…. maybe, even the people who don’t want their work to appear (the blanked out work) in the artwork itself will still get a link to their piece…?
If you don’t want your work, your name or anything else to be used in any way whatsoever please let me know – I will completely respect your reasons for this and leave it completely out; blanked out or otherwise.
I’m emailng everyone in my favourites list with the same request so I guess it might take a while before I can even start the artwork.
If it all goes to plan and I’m reasonably happy with the finished result, I could even send you a copy of the artwork before it goes live just so you can approve it…. please let me know if you want this I’d prefer not to do this though as the work will obviously have already been done! I would rather know at the outset weather or not you don’t mind me doing it.
It could well be a rubbish piece of work in the end and never go live… I’d like to give it a go though!
Thanks for your time and I look forward to you reply,
Kind regards,
Nathan (Naf4d)

Tom Douce
They are all awesome shirts! Great naf
Naf4d replied
They certainly are!
Flibble
Wow. That’s fantabulously splendid. Woot!
:-)
Naf4d replied
Thanks Flibble – glad you like it
SD Smart
Facinating way to look at the redbubble process.
Naf4d replied
Cheers Shane.
You weren’t too sure about it originally – you okay with it?
yanmos
Amazing work Nathan!!!
Naf4d replied
Thanks Yannis :-)
Matt Simner
Wow – it ‘was’ worth waiting for. It’s a great concept and just so well done. Great work Nat.
Naf4d replied
Thanks Matt – glad you think so.
SD Smart
Very happy with it. I originally had reservations only because I couldn’t imagine how each image would be used in the end result (which would make for a very cool poster). It looks like you put many hours into it too.
Naf4d replied
Good, I’m glad!
...A few hours, but to be honest nowhere near as many as I’d like to. It all looked better in my head!! lol
ab-type
wow, this is fantastic, love all the detailing. :-)
Naf4d replied
Thank you ab-type.
rubyred
Worth the work I’d say! Looks like you’ve created a few layers here ;)
Naf4d replied
Oh yeah – just a few! ;-)
Thanks for stopping by.
LeapingPig
a great round up of these awesome designs! ;)
Naf4d replied
Cheers LP. :-)
Spikerama
Mate I haven’t been on for a while but I thought it was well worth coming in to congratulate you on this fantastic piece.
You’ve certainly put some effort in and it looks bloody brilliant!!
Well done man. I’m humble and highly impressed.
It makes me realise how much I miss being active on RB.
Hopefully soon I will have some time to come back and play. Until then let it be known that YOU ROCK!!!
Naf4d replied
Haha, hello mate.
Thanks for you kind words.
FIND the time!!! ;-)
nofrillsart
Very Nice Work! Its like a visual version of music sampling.
Naf4d replied
Cheers NFA – I like the idea of that. :-)
