Haha. If you allow me some actual time on this, like a week or so, I will vector a bitchin mascot. But I have to say school comes first.
Edit: If anything. If I am unable to provide a new mascot will you accept an image I have made that I think would be a nice mascot?

If you wanna do that, its fine. Mine was a WIP from a few months ago, never finished, opened illustrator the other day and decided to finish.
But its up to you.

Okay, I will work hard on getting a new design together but if the week dwindles I'll have to fall back on an older vector I did.

Sorry Tao. I can't seem to think of any good mascots that I can design. I just keep falling back into my latest t-shirt design in progress.
If I can't think of something by Sunday morning, I will take my fall back vector and make it more "mascoty".

I'm going to use this. I made the pope for a shirt and since the client wants to make this into a shirt I'm adding a watermark. Also I hope we didn't have to make a big deal out of the mascot other then designing it. Other than that I love this image.
I figured the image was not good enough for the battle. I need to work a little more. I assure you I will have something soon.

Go ahead and post yours so I can see if you want it just as the mascot vector or if you want it in a full image style vector.

Vote: TR It was more exciting and catchy DS's was a little plain. The dolphin didn't even have any eyes. Good luck guys.

I think TR's influencing the vote. Just a thought. XD
Vote: TR,
DS you need some eyes on that dolphin. Facial features can do wonders!

Hopefully its not the title, cuz that was just random messing around, long before entries were submitted. But I will change it.

Nice images, both of you! Tao: Good job on the hawk! It really stands out and looks nice. How you made the wings/feathers is perfect. The racket could have used some touching up, but it also has nice detail. The only thing that looked a little out of wack was the hard gradients. Soften them up a bit, and this will be a prize! Maybe a font that shows some action, too! DS: I can see you put some effort into this, and it looks nice, but you could have worked on some finer points. The gradients in the dolphin are boring, and some of the edges aren't worked on enough. You could also put some more work into the darker blue wave. Overall, this looks nice, but some more detail and finishing up would help. My vote: Tao

Tao Ren: Nice touches added to the hawk, the racket and boots make it appealing. Good typography, the font and gradient used go well with the blue of the hawk. I like the way you have done a simple gradient for the background so the attention isn't taken away from the focal point. Good job with this piece, it is an original design and it grabs your attention.
Dishwasher Safe: Nice design also, but it doesn't strike me as original compared to Tao's. Maybe you could have put a little swimming hat and goggles on the dolphin, or something like that. Good vector work and nice font too.
My vote - Tao Ren
Tao Ren - 4 Dishwasher Safe - 0
Tao wins, well done!

Jon, just ignore his little tyrants. He's being way immature for his age. Quite normal for him, actually.
