New Oddworld tee on qwertee - Necrum Miners
 
Hey guys,

Just a quick info, there's a new unofficial oddworld tee up on qwertee.

So they are celebrating the release of New N Tasty with a shirt for Necrum mines, right, that makes no sense, and I don't even like the shirt.

Pirfsich 07-30-2014 02:28 AM

I know, Necrum is Exoddus. I like it.

Job McYossie 07-30-2014 03:44 AM

There's your stupid vote. It's kinda cool, actually.

Wo, JG moaning he doesn't like something? Surprise of the month.

Crashpunk 07-30-2014 08:54 AM

It's not official. And I don't like that design at all.

Pirfsich 07-30-2014 11:16 AM

:(

Havoc 07-30-2014 11:20 AM

Voted for you, though it's not something I would personaly buy or want to wear.

Scrabaniac 07-30-2014 12:29 PM

I would prefer BigFace's Mask on the front of the T-shirt quoting "Why the long face?" lol.

Crashpunk 07-30-2014 12:40 PM

No offence or anything, It's just I usually only buy official merch.

MeechMunchie 07-30-2014 01:18 PM

This smacks of copyright violation, and the design is kind of shoddy.

HOMINIX 07-30-2014 01:30 PM

I actually think an official "Property of _______" (Rupture Farms, Bonewerkz, SoulStorm Brewery, Fee Co etc) tee shirt would fin right in with most of their tongue-in-cheek humor (ie slaves are "employees")

But I don't really want to support unofficial merch, as OWI deserves and could use all the money they can get. Plus I don't really dig the shirt. The concept is good, but the execution is off.

MeechMunchie 07-30-2014 02:00 PM

They ought to make little Abe ponytails attached to headbands.

Slog Bait 07-30-2014 02:03 PM

The thing that interests me most about unofficial Oddworld merch is OWI and JAW are some of the easiest people to get in contact with to ask for permission to sell these types of things but for some reason no one ever tries

JennyGenesis 07-30-2014 03:39 PM

I've been waiting for years for a simple black t shirt with the OWI logo on it.

It may come across a bit as selling out, which probably goes against the stories behind Oddworld, but there's nothing wrong with keeping fans and customer happy which at the end of the day, it's in their hands to keep Oddworld going.

Slog Bait 07-30-2014 03:56 PM

I still just want a reprint of a lot of the merch that was sold along side AE.

Give me those stickers and shirts I have a mighty need for all of them even if they're made to order

Job McYossie 07-30-2014 06:37 PM

I'm surprised you all aren't trying to burn the website yet. It does nothing except sell unofficial merch for franchises without permission.

It's only the Oddworld merchandise I care about. Most of my other favorite series' creators are already making hand over fist. But Oddworld could truly use this money to kick the series back into gear. And that's something I had almost given up hope for before Abe HD was announced/rumored.

Connell 07-30-2014 08:38 PM

If Oddworld did another decent official t-shirt, I'd buy it. As long as the design was so good I couldn't resist as a fan.

Manco 07-30-2014 10:42 PM

Hey speaking of tshirts if you don’t already have the New Yolk City shirt it’s currently on sale at a huge discount: Men’s, Women’s

Also the Sekto Springs shirt is sold out forever.

Job McYossie 07-30-2014 11:43 PM

Yes but that Jet Set Radio Women's Tee is greatly calling my name.

Hey guys,

Just a quick info, there's a new unofficial oddworld tee up on qwertee for voting! Just register and press vote! We all want to have it, don't we?

Fixed that for you.

HOMINIX 07-31-2014 02:08 PM

Would it be cost effective for OWI to sell merchandise? At the very least, your most loyal fans seem to crave it. Think of the potential money that could go toward future projects... :fuzvamp:

STM 08-01-2014 12:14 PM

fleech condoms.

Pirfsich 08-01-2014 12:20 PM

Well... The tee won't get sold anyway...

Complete with a collapsible tongue-like appendage :sick:

Crashpunk 08-01-2014 12:38 PM

We might as well open up another Oddworld merch thread.

Even though nothing will ever come close to be as good as Slog Bait's masterpiece.

Pirfsich 08-01-2014 12:48 PM

Yeah, let's start another thread!

Slog Bait 08-01-2014 01:11 PM

One day there will be a line of Vykker underwear and I will be so, so proud.

Paul 08-01-2014 03:21 PM

Can't OWI/JAW just sell some on cafe press and they'll still get the $$$? I'd buy an OWI logo tshirt.

Let me try that.

Pirfsich 08-02-2014 06:36 AM

Here you go,

Some things to say first:

1. I'm really REALLY sorry for using Papyrus, but I think it actually fits here...
2. It's not final, polish has to be done and I may add texture and proper eyes later.
3. For aesthetic purposes I put the design on a shirt.
4. The "l" lines up with the teeth. It looks good but bad at the same time...

Looking good. I'd probably want one. You could always throw the Oddworld font on there if people don't like papyrus.

Job McYossie 08-02-2014 08:10 AM

I like it quite a bit. I personally think the face is a little too stretched out though.

Pirfsich 08-02-2014 08:18 AM

Good point!
Better?

Connell 08-02-2014 08:47 AM

I'd definitely buy an official version of that if the font was changed and the image of Big Face was taken from the game model.

I can't get this idea out of my head that Big Face is Abe from the future every time I see him now.

TheOddgamer98 08-02-2014 09:02 AM

For me it just looks to abstract. For my opinion it doesn't really look like the "Odd" Oddworld �� :P

I mean the Necrum shirt.. :)

Pirfsich 08-02-2014 09:02 AM

Yeah, that would be cool! I would love to mess with all the models myself. They won't upload them, though...
What font would you like to have, Connell?
I don't think Big Face is Abe. He is just a spiritual figure for the mudokons.

Ahaha I love it. I'm convinced this is truth since we brought it up in that other thread.

I would also like to buy an apple if it's a peach, by the way.
