IMA ROBOT CARTOON!!!

ART1SSS - 11-8-2003 at 10:35 PM

I'm pretty new to this board so I thought I'd like to make my very 1st post on this board with a custom cartoon I did of the band.

I hope you guyz like...cuz I had fun making it.



Here's a little story about this cartoon...I was gonna actually make a T-shirt outta of it for the Roxy show...but wasn't able to finish it on time. Oh well...there's always next time. I told all the band members after the show that I did a cartoon of them but I didn't have anything to show them. So...hopefully they will see it on this board....if not I have all you Ima Robot fans to share it with.

Marv,
excellent work. thank you very much.

seacaptain - 11-9-2003 at 06:25 AM

That's awesome!

draconian - 11-9-2003 at 07:27 AM

Really cool work! Totally something you'd expect to see on the Ima Robot lunchbox for sale at the merch table alongside the Ima Robot ski masks.

So are you going to make a t-shirt with it? We've been looking for a design for an imarobot.net shirt, hint hint...

lomax - 11-9-2003 at 08:52 AM

so good. the background is damn funky too! i love it. is there a policy that states i cant blag that and put it on a t-shirt?

welcome marv, and thank you

I would watch out for Hanna Barbera poaching the image and developing a cartoon about five crime-fighting postpunks.

Phobiac - 11-9-2003 at 09:47 AM

ART1SSS that is super sweet...

I think that would make a very nice t-shirt!

Maybe grandma can take it to her needle-point group or quilting work-shop and do some magic with it!

nurzetrev - 11-9-2003 at 10:46 AM

oh my god, that is so awesome I'm almost speechless. Out of control, man, ...it reminds me of old school heat press design days at the mall or at a flea market. I had a t-shirt with Jesus on the front and E.T. on the back (purple/mysterious of course). I also had a DeVo freedom of choice t-shirt with "Foxy Lady" on the back...
But this is like that Micheal Jackson "Thriller" design I got put on a baseball jersey with black checkerboard sleeves...the Thriller part was hot pink and it was so outrageous, I was just about afraid to wear it because it was too awesome.
Ima-gine that. I'm getting similar vibrations from this. May be an excellent lunchbox or beenie hat, IMA RObot clock or diaper deck cozy (hahaha, man I kill me...which on doesn't belong?).
Next T-shirt design? ...and your begging for the song #1 video to appear on Cartoon Network....

draconian - 11-9-2003 at 12:12 PM

Art1ss, you need to weigh in here with your opinion. What do you say to a patch or a decal that people can iron on or sew to whatever they want? And how long did it take you to come up with that? It captures the band so well. You might need to do a version 2.0 with Scott Devours!

THANX...everyone!!!

ART1SSS - 11-9-2003 at 12:49 PM

First of all...Thanx for all the kind responses to my cartoon. Wow...I never imagine my design could be on a lunch box...when I look back at it...I can see where you guyz are coming from.

As for a second version...that's already in the works. I just need pictures of Scott... cuz I don't remember what he looked like. I don't have a photographic memory...I'm only human.

So...if you can tell where I can find pictures of Scott??? So...I have sumthin' to refer to on my next design.

To let you guyz know...I only do cartoons of bands I really like and have the potential of being sumthin' big. So...you guyz havn't seen the last of me.

seacaptain - 11-9-2003 at 12:55 PM

So, is anyone is making this into t-shirts for us?

draconian - 11-9-2003 at 01:29 PM

I would be willing to look into iron-on costs or t-shirt costs.

As far as pics of Scott goes, check the news section thread about Joey leaving, I think I have a link in there to one of his photos.

happysmilely - 11-9-2003 at 07:54 PM

that is super cool!
great! really! would really make a GREAT t-shirt (and so on) 2!!! I want! lol. good stuff!

lomax - 11-10-2003 at 05:31 AM

hey be sure to credit artissss if others ask! :)

what color shirt did you put it on? I only can see white with it? but maybe you used a color?

(mars volta, good stuff, have fun)

draconian - 11-10-2003 at 12:16 PM

Art1SS, I can do decals for about .25 each, let me know if you're okay with this and if you can maybe email me an uncompressed version of the graphic.

Phobiac - 11-10-2003 at 08:49 PM

Sounds like you're making a sales pitch to ART1SSS! .Net will pay for the decals and give them away via the draconian distribution system?

Do we have your blessing?

Hmmm....let me think!!!

ART1SSS - 11-10-2003 at 10:34 PM

Yeah...You have my blessing to make decals out of my cartoon...but there are a few kinks I need to finish with the design before I send it to you. So you guyz have to be very patient.

Thanx for asking for my permission.

dontneednoname - 11-15-2003 at 03:42 PM

Neuwave - 11-18-2003 at 01:55 PM

Super-Dope!!

whitneydarlingx - 11-24-2003 at 07:49 PM

its adorable!

MichelleRene - 11-25-2003 at 07:17 AM

I love the design! I hope someone makes t-shirts out of it. The design reminds me of the old "Charlie's Angels" logo or something. Love the colors!!! Keep us posted as to what will happen with it!

RoboticTerrorSTD - 12-3-2003 at 02:19 PM

that is a damn good drawing.....i'm just itching to put this picture on a baseball shirt, would you mind?

rwgordon - 2-8-2004 at 09:43 PM

is there any update on the decals for this? the pic has gone into high rotation on my windows background randomiser :cool:

draconian - 2-9-2004 at 04:57 AM

Phobes, how about getting a quality printout of this and I'll take care of the decals. I was just thinking about this one last night.

Schwowsers - 2-9-2004 at 12:24 PM

That is an awesome design! I'd definitely buy a t-shirt with that on it! Fantastic job, ART1SSS!

TurtleEnterprises - 2-9-2004 at 09:22 PM

Damn thats such a cute drawing good job ART1SSS! Keep us updated bout the decals.:yes:

sevenblur - 2-9-2004 at 09:28 PM

Dude...this is a great cartoon, I love it alot. If you could get this on a shirt then I would definitely give you money to buy it. Its awesome!!!! You are an extrememly talented person and cartoon is great....I vote for it to be on the main page of .net as the logo, what do you peeps think?
peace

IMAWreck - 2-10-2004 at 09:19 AM

Yes- that cartoon is sweet. It just captures a certain vibe about the band- love it!

Now a question... how hard would it be to make an updated version with Scott and his short mohawk hair? not to be pushy, but I think that would be rad. - just wondering...

thanks!
