rock the vote...

i was contacted by te same guy who bought 2 of my designs for sharp shirter, he asked me to punk out a candidate.

looking into it, i was designing this to ultimately go on sale at up against the wall mall outlets. so it's cool to get my work into some malls, but i'll never see them, as they're based along the east coast. but i'm getting a few free shirts, so i can revel in those at least.

here's the design in question:



this is the mohawk i alluded to , as i had my own shaved 2 days prior to working on this.

funny how mohawks travel in packs of two.

two shirts for sale.

a few months back, sharp shirter bought a couple of my designs.

"bring it"


"african animal alliance"


the second design is still on preorder (even i haven't recieved my shirts of the second design as part of the acquisition yet, so i'm guessing they're yet to hit the presses)

bring it was my first off center design i'd put together that i thougt worked well. african animal alliance had preceeded bring it by a number of months, but i only had that placement off center as it looked boring centered. and as far as i'm aware, sharp shirter plans on printing that off center as well.

african animal alliance was one of the few designs i'd created fully rasterized, usually i like to work with vectors. i did turn aaa into vector art for dan over at sharp shirter, but only to aide in getting it printed easier. this design had initially run in the threadless competition, and a voter had asked if it was influenced by donkey kong country, and as i can remember it now, they did indeed ride ostriches. even when i'm trying not to be influenced by the 80's and 90's, i fail.
