A free form observation on the culture surrounding alcohol. The facts, the myths, the good stuff and bad.

Theres definitely purpose and meaning in here, but hopefully you don't need to "get" anything to enjoy the art.

This piece took me a month and a half to finish, so feedback is definitely appreciated.

woah! what's on the back?

awesome art

EricDiaz on Apr 23 '08

WOW

roadkill3d on Apr 23 '08

fantastic! $$$$$$

atomic child on Apr 23 '08

nice..wonder if this could be pulled off 5

roadkill3d on Apr 23 '08

A belt print I'd actually wear to add.

steve_wirzba on Apr 23 '08

this is really amazing, a true acomplishment. More importantly, it will look amazing on a shirt.

But....I think its really important that people be able to see whats on the back. I'm assuming its just more of the same? Somehow I doubt it just cuts off. Either way, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and give it a $5. Really awesome job.

Jessica86 on Apr 23 '08

OMG BATMAN. I love it and you for bringing cult americana and Popeye together in b&w

Janiceknew on Apr 23 '08

This is so good. How the back of the shirt look like?

smitten kitten on Apr 23 '08

Sunshine69 on Apr 23 '08

DaleEdwin on Apr 23 '08

Very very nice. I got 5 on it

DaleEdwin on Apr 23 '08

Oh, and mines a pint of bitter thanks

Pixtoons on Apr 23 '08

Nutty and cool in an E.C. Segar (artist that created Popeye) way.

nonolarson on Apr 23 '08

Great! Love the giraffe/cow.

Le Dobermann on Apr 23 '08

jbacko06 on Apr 23 '08

DAMN......................... 5

4qu4 on Apr 23 '08

i like this a lot! i've always wanted a shirt with a design that covers the whole front! 5

cyanidee on Apr 23 '08

sweet but what about the back?!

yeohgh on Apr 23 '08

wowowowww...$555555

juliejeremiah on Apr 23 '08

5'd

maybe $'d depending on how it looks in real life. :)

jadefrolics on Apr 23 '08

Wow I love having tons of stuff to look at! Great job! 5

olie! on Apr 23 '08

The front looks amazing. I love belt prints and this is one of the best I've seen not just on Threadless, but anywhere. I'm very impressed.

However if it is a belt print it's very important that people need to see what is on the back. If you only drew a front version I don't think it's ready for voting quite yet until people are able to see the entire design.

fatheed on Apr 23 '08

I'm pretty sure that this is best thing you've ever done! Awesome stuff mate.

fatheed on Apr 23 '08

I share the concerns about the back issue, and the feasability, but the illustration is fan-ruddy-tastic.

book02683 on Apr 23 '08

holy fuckkkk.
fantwastic.

willypiva on Apr 24 '08

steven218 on Apr 24 '08

wow, you really went for it on the belt man!

yaw_eno on Apr 24 '08

awesome awesome awesome

Ste7en on Apr 24 '08

Thanks so much for the feedback everyone. As for the back? Well, every good mystery has a twist ending. All I can say is "he was dead all along"

huebucket on Apr 24 '08

man, this is so awesome!!! sure buy $5

FRICKINAWESOME on Apr 24 '08

Wow-rageous Ste7en! Seems like nearly every artist is weighing on the resurgance of the 1920's style of black and white comic stylings, this one being ampong the best the re-visiting has to offer. Nice flow and style to this beast.

5$

d3d on Apr 24 '08

crazy. i like the old style characters.

iwilldrawforfood on Apr 24 '08

If they fill the whole shirt like that, DEFINITE $5

bananaphone on Apr 24 '08

looks interesting but i think theyd have to be very careful about how they print it and the shirts positioning and then theyd need different screens for every size.

Ste7en on Apr 24 '08

actually its taken into account (as best I can). Theres filler elements around the edges so it doesnt have to sit perfectly, and can be printed over any size without much adjustment (if any)

hogboy on Apr 24 '08

Great stuff man, this is def one of my faves of yours... either with or without a backprint would do me

dacat on Apr 25 '08

Wow that is INSANE, definitely print this $5

littleclyde on Apr 25 '08

Amazing illustration, great balance of black and white. Love the characters and I'll trust you to make a back that looks just as cool! Great job...

jean_warhol on Apr 25 '08

wow.... this is really great ste7en!!!

SteveOramA on Apr 25 '08

there's a lot going on in this one.
if this doesn't win i don't know what will.

x_asile_x on Apr 25 '08

burger ring on Apr 25 '08

Best belt print I have ever seen, month and a half well spent mate, I would totally buy this and know others that would too.

maximusrex on Apr 28 '08

I hate shirts with a wrap around print that covers the whole shirt! I hate them. Why have you created one that I would like to wear?

squintygirl on Apr 28 '08

I love all the little details.
