Artist request-I want a meme
16I lack the artistic ability to make this happen but I know we have shirt designers and such here. I want a particular image and it by the way would make a great shirt I would be thrilled if meh sold.
I want the words" Stay at least a fathom away, prevent the unfathomable"
I want a gordons fisherman style fisherman seperated by a line(rope) from a naval captain.
Ideally in my head writing and images would be white on a blue background
Anyone feel like being nice and making this a thing for me?
Fyi for those who ask a fathom is 6 feet in nautical

Here’s the straight image
@canuk
Cool!
I like it!
@sammydog01 are you artistic enough to make it?
@CaptAmehrican Not even close. Sorry.
@CaptAmehrican @sammydog01
Maybe put this req on Mediocritee?
Also maybe ask one of the VolMods to add “t-shirt design” to the topic title?
Might get the artistic people’s attention more quickly?
Unfortunately, you could do this yourself and come out with something better than anything I could create. No talent or training or skill here. : (
@CaptAmehrican @sammydog01 I’m not even Autistic enough to make it…
@sammydog01 I can’t fathom it…
@daveinwarsh @sammydog01
The concept is too deep for me …
@CaptAmehrican @f00l @sammydog01 maybe a mermaid in place of the Gorton’s dude? Adds a little extra layer of meaning to the caption …
@CaptAmehrican Something like this? I know you also wanted a navy captain in there too…
Paging @AcraigL
I’d buy this!
Does this help?
@canuk that look amazing!!! I had had a more simple idea but this is wonderful
Actually medicretee should do a 2 pack one this and one with them two characters separated a bit more like below.
@CaptAmehrican ah! I got it now! Let me see if I can work something else up
@canuk fyi I adore you. You are wonderful!!
@CaptAmehrican “Global Distancing” show the measurements by national symbol for countries all around the world.
France: Stay 1.5 baguettes away from each other.
Canada: Stay the length of a Zamboni away from each other.
Australia: stay a kangaroo hoo distance apart.
Germany:. Stay 6 wurst’s apart
@CaptAmehrican @OnionSoup nniicceee or for Canada/US the # of Stanley Cups…I believe it is two
Very clever idea! You (and whomever designs this for you) could also likely sell it on schooner bums and several of the tall ship forums I’d bet too.
Paging @ACraigL @jasneko (see top of thread - she wants a t-shirt designer)
Are there any other t-shirt designers on here?
@Kidsandliz Thanks for thinking of me! I love helping out and collabing, but unfortunately I am very short on time right now - I have a list of shirts/designs/projects on the backburner already and this sounds like it would take a bit of extra time as well, not being something I draw often. Hope someone else can help!
What is a Gordon’s fisherman style fisherman? This makes me want to take a shot at it but I don’t know what that is
@canuk I believe it’s “Gorton’s” - google it and get thousands of images …
@canuk @stolicat yes that is what I meant. Because an iconic old style fisherman.
@canuk Think “I Know What You Did Last Summer”-style fisherman and you’ll be close.
Do you want it a realistic style or like a line-art/cartoony style?
@canuk What about Gangnam style?
/youtube Gangnam style
Possibly a big hit in S Korea?
@canuk I am thinking kinda cartoonish but not all the way.
