About my design

by elegantmint
Traditional mail is silly. Half of the holiday cards I sent out never even made it. That has inspired me to create "Snail Mail", where the poor snail (who is far superior to the post) gets his revenge by gooing up a letter.



The "snail trail" (black goo behind the snail and going down the shirt) should be super glow.



Colours: Black, white, red, blue, brown, yellow, & purpleish.

This explains why the post is always so gooey! But that little snail is so cute, I feel bad complaining. Yay snails! I love snails and I love your shirt. :)

I like the snail's little "oooh" mouth - looks like she just realised she done a baaad thing :) nice work.

ahh, the freedom of the work from it's maker! funny enought, my first impression of this design is that the snail suggests something organic about postal mail, physicality... whereas we live so much in the e-world, perhaps a synthetic world. i like the design very much!

snail mail for the win!

): i wish it would get revived, somehow.

i'd love this a little more (if that were even possible, considering how much i adore it already) if it wasn't on sky blue. for some strange reason, i'd love it on purple! there seems to be a lack of purple tshirts these days...

Aw thanks- originally I was leaning towards purple, as I love purple tees! I thought the blue went more with the mail theme? I dunno why... I wonder what other people think?

blue is a very postal color...me i love anything in green...just not white...to easy to get dirty (maybe i am a slob)

Thanks for the comment, Octopus112. I was actually going for a bit of a sketch feel and simplicity, rather than all perfect computery lines.

I need the snail with its bulging eyeballs! And, blue looks good on me. Where do I place my order?

I dig.

I once got a snail awfully drunk - silly gastropod wandered through some spilt champagne and started weaving around in circles. It slept for three days.

So snails are fun.
