About my design

by d3d   
I liked the idea of a pair of gentlemen squaring off for a duel, but while I was working on it I realised you could make them take their ten paces and turn by unzipping and spreading it out.
The back image is optional.

i like the bottom photo because it looks like theyre both about to shoot the girl. witch! This is one of my faves because it looks great on the hoodie and the front print doesn't cover too much of the pockets. And the drawstrings alllmost double as smoke coming from the pistols.

You know how I love southern gentleman...and you can't beat the damsel in distress with the perfect tits and expression. I also dig the detail on the guns.

This better print so I can buy it...

$5... p.s. I'd totally buy this as a shirt as well as hoodie.

p.s.s. who wins? The dude on the left or the right? Because my vote is for the dude on the left.
