This is my entry for the Alumni vs. Barons Substitions Battle! Vote high for it and bring down the evil tyranny of the Barons. I heard the Barons once stole candy from a baby and gave it to an oil tycoon, like some kinda crazed anti-robin-hood-clan.

This is based on the Hawaiian superstition that removing lava rock from the islands angers Pele the volcano goddess. She will have bad luck follow whoever removed the rock until they return it to her shores.

Here's a website of people claiming the bad luck to have followed them until they sent the lava rocks back:

The texturing of this sub is in one word amazing. In many words, completely absorbing to the point og me hitting my head on the computer from going into a trance staring closer and closer to this amazing work. 4$ on light blue.

i know that the helicopter with rocks is kinda the point of the story, but i'd really love the shirt without the helicopter.. it seems like ancient/modern clash. but still. $4

I really like the way you made this shirt. The patterns are great. Funny story too.

I like the green, so for the little girl's shirt I think the green would be pretty too. $5

Pele had better not give me bad luck for accidentally getting her rock stuck in my shoe.
