This idea came to me the other night - I've been working on a painting of a two-headed monster playing a guitar, and it's been hot up in NY, so I've been eating lots of Flav-O-Ice.
I'd justify it up towards the collar, so the heads are both up near the shoulders, rather than doing like an off-the-bottom print or something.
I wasn't entirely sure what to do with the bottom - for now I have it turning into drips, like a melting popsicle. Please pardon the shittiness of the drips - I just sort of threw them on there as a placeholder.
So far I like where this is going, but I'm worried that something like this may already be out there on Threadless or something - a two headed monster offering one head a popsicle isn't so weird as to have never been on a few t-shirts before.
I might add some more detail (this didn't take super long - it was more about deciding where I wanted the arms than anything), but so far I like it, and think it could do well.
I'm also not 100% on the colors, so I'm kicking around a few different options.

I like where this is going bro,
The drips on the bottom aren't that bad. Maybe a different shirt color than white. And my only other idea is to maybe make their mouths a lil more recognizable. At first I confused the smiles for bags under the eyes, which made me thnk it was just a monster with weird eyes, not 2 heads, haha.

Yeah, I like where it's going as well. I do think the bottom drips area a little too linear. I would maybe start the dripping from higher up and have it be a little more random. There's a pretty noticeable degradation of the drip from thick to thin that I also notice. It's a cool concept so far though!

thanks guys! I'm going to toy around with different colors and add some details...

okay. I redrew the whole thing. looking at it now I know I'm not a fan of the drips yet, and the left arm needs work. what do you think?
also, I'm not sold on making this guy yellow - I might do him in a darker color.

thanks! it still needs work, but I think it's a step in the right direction - this feels more like a SEIBEI piece now.
