FRICKINAWESOME on Aug 21 '08 Ha, everything a vampire hunter needs! I'd love to see the mirror and a few other things in a bit of foil, which could reflect some light which would screw with the vampires even more!

Ian Leino on Aug 21 '08 Wow, thanks for the comments so far, everyone! I researched everywhere I could think of to find ways of disposing of, or at least annoying, vampires and so came up with a few things outside of the common knowledge (such as the silver nails - meant to be put through the temples). Also, above the mirror is a flint and steel - the Zippo lighter of the romantic era.
And, as FA noticed, all the silver elements would be printed in silver foil. |
 |

This is great. This is great. Then I could look at it when the time comes and see what I have available.
I wanted to be first poster. Who is this WhitneyAnn anyway. She probably doesn't even exist. I'm sorry - I'm ranting ... ;) |

 |
nielquisaba on Aug 24 '08 love it! 5
|
 |
Great - the slightly random elements make the design much more intriguing
I figured the nails were for the coffin It might have been nice to see the design on an ultra-violet, or its most visible purple alternate, as a final trick-up-your-sleeve kinda thing I'll still buy it though as it is 5 $ |
 |
I'm not much of a fan for this type of shirt (see "Ways of Making You Talk", "Clockwork Kit", and "All I Need") Regardless, I know it will score well, and it is well drawn. Threadless will probably be safe and print this despite the facts mentioned above.
|
 |
that's totally HAWT
|
 |
hogboy on Aug 24 '08 This is sweet Ian. Nice work!
|
 |
andyg on Aug 24 '08 This makes me want to play Castlevania! Nice design!
|
 |
I know it's totally unrelated but reminds me of 'A Key For Everything'.
|
 |
As a print it would be OK.
|
 |
brilliant!! 5$
|
 |

|
 |
FREAKN' SWEET! $5
|

|
 |
Cool beans.
|
 |
LINK2dPAST: diff'rnt strokes fer diff'rnt folks, eh? ;) And what are these "facts mentioned above" that you speak of?
Anyway. I like designs featuring "stuff" laid out on a shirt, so $5 for this. Am I automatically notified if this shirt goes into print? |

 |
mezo on Aug 26 '08 TWIGS AND BERRIES LAUGH OUT LOUD.
Nice texturing! |
 |
roadkill3d on Aug 26 '08 Brilliant in every way!
|
 |
Silver foil? Sounds epic. ^_^
Actually, the shirt itself is pretty epic regardless, but I'm sure you already knew that. It reminds me of the "keys" shirt from a while ago, but it's got vampires, so it's much awesomer. xD |
|
I really, really, really hope this wins. Can't stop thinking about it!
|
|
@kireme_soen on Aug 26 '08
Erm, it really only has vampire-related stuff on it, not vampires! At least none that I can see ^^ |
|
Love it, I want this shirt real bad!
|
|
awesomeness.
5$ |
 |

|
 |
igo2cairo on Aug 28 '08 Glad I could sneak in at the last minute, almost missed giving this awesome design a 5$!
|
 |
I'd wear this every day, and then when it got all worn out from not taking it off, I'd buy another one.
|
 |

About my design
A squalid inn outside a rundown castle on a night as black as ravens' wings. After exchanging the bulk of my coinage for what passes for drink in this place, the barkeep offers to sell me a box of protective relics for my journey homeward.
As I released the catch and opened the lid, I smirked at the trinkets, and the simple naivety of these peasants and their superstitious beliefs. I drained my glass and headed for the door.
I placed my hand on the door latch, and turned for one more snide look at these country simpletons. Outside a hound bayed. Another joined in. And another. Soon, it seemed as if the entire town were awash in their mournful song, and it quickly rose to a frantic, feverish yelping that tore through me like an icy wind.
I dashed back to the bar, slammed my remaining coins on the table, snatched the box from the barkeeper's grubby hands, and rushed to my awaiting carriage, praying that I would make it out of this dismal town before the shadows closed around me.

Recreated in five colors plus silver foil on a blood-red tee.
