Steelplate's Slogans

In hindsight, this may be trading on our friendship too soon.]]> Mon, 08 Feb 2010 02:12:41 -0600
I loved the fact that I knew what Kerning was thanks to you fine peeps at Threadless :)

Oh, in case peeps don't know, Shillington College is a Graphic Design college. So yes, I'm studying Graphic Design now. Holy crap!

Maybe I'll actually learn to to design something that sells!!]]> Sat, 30 Jan 2010 20:17:13 -0600

I've actually gone ahead and designed something of a submission for Threadless, or maybe it'd be better suited for TypeTees? Not sure. I didn't think I had enough space to get the idea across so I thought I'd just take 5 minutes out of my day and pop this up.



Mildly humorous? Possible?

You decide!

EDIT: UPDATE! I have just uploaded another design, this time one that has actual artwork in it.



Well kinda, whatevers. Again it's just something simple and for fun :)]]> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 01:20:42 -0500
Little bored as of late so I got to clicking around and realised that at some point, ages ago, I deleted some slogan gems, god honest gems! So I thought I'd try and ressurect a few of them and see how they'd do in today's audience.

If ya'll could have a gander and giggle over in it, that'd be super! And don't be afraid to suggest ones I should bring out of the graveyard.

Love,
Steely]]> Fri, 18 Sep 2009 23:16:13 -0500
Okay, that was lame, but guess what isn't!? Mine being so bored I'm actually trying to slogan up again! I know! Amazing right?

Yeah I didn't think so either. Anyways I've got 3 newbies up, 1 a retooling of an oldie that was bugging me. Anyways if you take a gander and are familar with my preevious works you'll note that I've recently deleted a few.

That's all from me, hope ya'll are doing awesome.

Wanted to thank Threadless for choosing my slogan from the thousands of rad candidates that have been trying to get their awesome slogans printed over these years. Special shoutout to Frick and Rossmat8 for their badass OSC and Shogan clubs. I honestly don't think it could have happened without your help. And lastly, extra special thanks goes to Speedyjvw for doing such a rad custom type face that really made this slogan pop and lock like a mad rock out player.

Love you all,
Steely]]> Mon, 18 May 2009 03:56:10 -0500
I'll need help, I can't slam a door on my hands by myself.

We're friends.

Who's willing to break my hands in a car door?]]> Mon, 13 Apr 2009 19:31:03 -0500
And maybe it's due to my subpar sleuthing skills, but I've yet to find the greatest shirt ever made. I'm talking a true, balls out, greatest shirt ever. A shirt that leaves no question to both how unbelievably awesome it is and how unbelievably awesome you are for wearing it.

Recently I found something that was close to what I was looking for:

West Side Rumble


As you can see, it has a Shark, eating a freaking jet loaded with harpoons. Now in it's own right, this is a freaking awesome shirt, but for what I'm looking for, it's not enough. Unfortunetly even Dick Firestorm's submissions haven't been enough for me.

What I'm looking for is something unreal...

Picture a Monster Truck with GIANT BEER KEG in the back the has EXPLODED and is now being LAUNCHED over a thousand zombies on fire whilst they head bang to a rock concert played by Iron Man on lead guitar firing a burst of energy from his palm and exploding a Jet, with an Chewbacca bass guitarist, Abe Lincoln on vocals and Animal from the Muppets on drums, surrounded by histories greatest war scenes from WW1 to the Civil War to Ghengis Khan to Roman Gladiators to the Russians and there's twelve, FUCKING TWELVE Black Hawk Helicopters hovering overhead with troopers roping down to the stage while they shoot CROSSBOWS into SKELETONS being reanimated to life by DARTH VADER and MICHAEL BAY with VISHNU ARMS is HAVING SEX with A MOUNTAIN of SWEDISH FEMALE VOLLEYBALL TEAMS and the MASONIC ALL SEEING EYE is WEEPING overhead whilst King Kong, Godzilla and Muhammad Ali in his prime duke it out in the background on top of Mt Everest which is also now a Volcano that is EXPLODING!!!

But that's just an idea and I was wondering what you guys and gals thought.

Cheers,
Steely]]> Mon, 30 Mar 2009 20:34:16 -0500
