Hi Vector Kids, ...
Hi Vector Kids, We thought it was about time we organised a little competition for the Vector Goodness Lounge ... we would like you to design a Vector Goodness Monster Mascot for the group. The competition doesn’t officially start until the 31st of March but we thought we’d give you advance notice so you can get to work on your monsters. Guidelines: Designs should be submitted in t-shirt format – any colour, any style. Submit your work to the group between the 31st March and 14th of April 2008 One entry per person No entries after the 14th Voting will commence on the 15th of April in the forums (we’ll set up a thread) and end on the 28th of March. Vote for as many designs as you like but only once per design. If there’s a tie then TBO and Nat will make the final decision. tag your work “VGMM” (in capitals) / First Prize: Your t-shirt Your design as group avatar (oh the glory) Your monster used in our ‘group badge’ design / (see jumpy’s profile for an example of the japanfluence badge) A “thickblackoutline vector goodness mystery prize pack” A feature spot on the Blog / Second Prize: A ““thickblackoutline vector goodness mystery prize pack” A feature spot on the Blog We can’t wait to see the Lounge overrun with monsters on the 31st so get designing! Much Love,

One thing this exercise has taught me is that some of my favourite designers and illustrators on RedBubble really should post more work in their art tab! I’m a big fan of some of the wonderful photography on the site (see JayCougar’s very beautiful Kindergarten Sky – above) but it would also be nice to see more of the talented designers and illustrators venture away from the comfort of the clothing tab more often. I’m guilty of sticking to t-shirt design but this has got me thinking … so I’m going to put forward a bit of a designers/illustrators call to arms. Let’s see more amazing work like this in the recent art tab! Natalie Tyler
This week’s Shirthead victim runs the / Unofficial Redbubble Tshirt Blog !http://images-0.redbubbl…
This week’s Shirthead victim runs the / Unofficial Redbubble Tshirt Blog and, contrary to her redbubble avatar, Natalie Tyler is not a piece of fruit. Although, like a piece of fruit, peel off a layer or two, and you get something altogether delicious. Let’s eat! This is the tshirt, by the way, folks… :oD So, what is a manchild? I have witnessed two types of manchild in their natural habitat and interestingly, they are almost polar opposites. One has the appearance of a man but displays Peter Pan-like qualities, namely the refusal to act like an adult. Often they will give the impression that they are fully grown adults but scratch the surface and you will find a fourteen year-old. Typical behavior includes: dressing like a teenager, owning one or more games consoles, spending an unhealthy amount of time on said games consoles and eating snickers bars for breakfast. The other variety is more like a man trapped in a child’s body. He has the appearance of someone who is dressed up in his Dad’s clothing. He would like to be seen as a man of the world but his childlike features give the game away. He longs for respect. Type one would probably love a manchild t-shirt and so he should! He’s fighting the good fight. I wish there was a recognised female equivalent to this type of manchild. Manchild type two would probably feel a small part of himself die inside if you gave him a manchild t-shirt. He would much rather a box of cigars. Or perhaps a suit in his size. What’s your favouritest tshirt you’ve ever worn? I bought a Faith No More ‘The Real Thing’ tour t-shirt from Brashes in Southland (Melbourne) when I was about 13. They only had extra large but I wanted it so badly I didn’t care that I was only 5ft tall and it was knee length. My mum kindly took it up for me so it resembled an oversized crop top. I still wore it til it was threadbare. Editor’s note – Ha ha! Brashes. :oP If you could handpick the most awesome rock band in the world, who would be in it? Why? What would they, and their first CD, be called? Wow. You sure ask the tough questions. I think I’d go for Mike Patton on lead vocals/percussion. Dave Grohl on drums and guitar (hey – it’s fantasy). Guest vocals from Jack Black and Maynard James Keenan. Bootsy Collins on bass just to mix it up a bit. They would be called Mindbuggery and the first album would be self titled. How did you find the bubble? What made you stick around and take to the tees? I was directed to the site by a friend. I signed up then spent a lot of time staring at amazing work and thinking about uploading some of my own. I faced my demons, acquired a copy of some software I hadn’t used in a while and set myself a few tasks to help me get back into things. One of those first ‘tasks’ happened to be featured and I sold a couple and from then on I was hooked. I’ve thought about uploading art but I like the layout of my profile page better when it’s got nine images in one block. What do you do when you’re not on the bubble? Picture the least creative environment you can possibly imagine. Times that by 10. No prizes for guessing I work at a law firm then. At this point I should stress I’m not a lawyer. I just got caught up with a bad crowd. I’ve deviated massively off the creative path and RedBubble has been my salvation. It’s cleared the cobwebs from the right side of my brain and has paved the way for a brighter future ;) I also sleep and catch public transport. Where do your ideas come from? Often they just come out of the process of trying to learn something new. If I distract myself from the task of creating something then things seem to flow a bit better. It’s getting started that’s the main problem so if I trick myself into it, before I know it I’m working on an idea. Other ideas will simply come from random things I see or hear during the day. I try to actually act on the phrase ‘that would make a cool t-shirt’. What are some of the best ideas you’ve come across so far this year? One of the coolest things I’ve seen this year is Irina Block’s stunning diamond necklace . I also really like little people – a tiny street art project described as ‘little hand painted people, left in London to fend for themselves’. Oh – and Joshua Allen Harris’s Inflatable Sculptures . One of those crazy ideas you admire someone for thinking up … Can you give us a random thought you constantly have but never vocalised before? Unfortunately no. I have plenty of random thoughts but most of them have been vocalised. I vocalise a fair bit. If you could be responsible for one thing, but no-one knew it was you who did it, what would it be? Ross Robinson already said he’d ‘take care’ of Celine Dion didn’t he? I could cover her back catalogue. Not literally, of course (that would be horrific). I mean I would remove every trace of it from our planet. What do you think is the affliction of the modern generation, and how can we eradicate it? Shopping as a leisure activity. It’s one thing to browse a fine internet site for some quality art to enhance your home or a lovely t-shirt to keep you warm but I think it’s scary how some people will spend a day out at a shopping centre for entertainment. Sometimes every weekend. Often alone. People should ask themselves why they don’t spend more time thinking, reading, creating, talking or just being. There’s nothing wrong with a good shop but it might be worth looking at how much time we spend doing it and how we’re really hoping it will make us feel. Can I get an Amen? ;o) Thanks Natalie! And alas, I can only pick one tshirt to feature in the actual strip, but this one also rocks. Seeya next week folks! Caanan.

TYLER THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE POEM TO OUR PLACE; LOOK AND SEE
Lately I’ve been playing with public domain pics quite a bit. It’s been part of a bit of a quest to try a few new things. I’m just reaching the point where I’m thinking about moving on to something else but before I left the world of PD behind, I decided to get in touch with another purveyor of PD, the very talented raae, to see if she was up for a collaboration of sorts. The basic idea was that we’d provide each other with some files and then go off and see what we could create with each others selections. I braced myself, ready for pornography and guns. After a few technical hitches my files arrived: a nipple scissors a sunflower skeleton arms this thing After some initial anxiety (what the hell was I going to make with nipples?), I embraced the randomness and got stuck into creating the above design. raae had a pinup and some nice big chunks of raw meat to work with so she set about creating a beautiful meaty montage. Some things I learned: it’s weird being at the mercy of someone else’s creative direction even a small amount of input from someone can make you learn new things if you admire another bubbler’s work and want to try collaborating don’t be afraid to bmail them It was a pleasure working with raae. She certainly challenged me with her selections and I hope that after giving this a bash, it won’t be the last collab we do :) If anyone else wants to take the images from above and have a go at creating something then knock yourself out! / / /

I forgot to ‘journal’ this a little earlier… and we all know I love a good journal… so as i did receive another reminder today… I thought that since I’ve been journal happy today… I might as well get the journal out one more time… after all… what’s a journal for?
