About the design
on September 14, 2005
This graphic was inspired by a cartoon i saw in an old paper in my grandfather's house by a guy named "bovarini". I couldnt find anything else about the guy or the original cartoon, i think it was in like the 60's.
This shirt took me a long time. Its hard to express in a small little gif, below are some image details. The image is entirely vectorized, also detailed below.

Incredible. I would buy this instantly, and then I'd buy some more.

Conceptually one of the strongest things on the site. It almost cries out for one more color to really make it pop, but very, very nice illustration.
amandine
Wow- very nice. Hope all the detail comes out well if it gets printed, I would definitely buy it.
Kashi
The shirt colour doesn't really do anything for me, but I love the illustration
DR DIGGLESWORTH
Shit me that must have taken a fookin' dog's age to do - well worth it though. Very nice design.
FJackie

los lobos

A. Maz. Ing. Holy crap.
Cattrin
Amazing anti-war message! I'm plaing to blog this design in ym next update ;) if only it came in another color. Nevertheless, 5 and buy.

los lobos: sloppy? death is sloppy. This shirt is awesome.
helo
to ni.m :
Is this design a statement against all wars
or against those individuals who use war
to gain recognition ? Or both ?
The Cheesy Weasel

janellio
This is the best anti-war, political statement shirt I've seen. It makes it statement but it doesn't hit you over the head. Amazing.
vanni
this shirt is perfect...clever but not esoteric, sharp but not painful. definitely $5.
Lucaz
Greately message, this image of a generalisimo with all his medals that are records of the thousands of people he has killed. This would be very popular in Latin America. Congrats!!! $5

Must. Have. This. Shirt.
Ava Adore

I'm giving this shirt a FIVE desipite of the small things I would critique on it. I hate to be one of those guys who says "change the placement & its a 5$", "change the color & I'm buying it", "yatta yatta yatta". But seriously, I'm not digging this shirt color for this design. I'm thinking an athletic grey or a charcoal shirt color would do this design more justice. BECAUSE IT IS AN AMAZING ILLUSTRATION. & you're racking up the scores merely because of that.
The message of the shirt is thought provoking. I know there is a time for war and a time for peace...but this artwork really shows the evil of man. Many would like to make this a politcal statement now...but I think its much more than that.
xiv
i hardly ever give out 5 and buys. but this design has recieved one. great job.

bobfrompikecreek
fan-fucking-tastic. wow.
spitting_llama
I'm not sure about the shirt color, just because I think it's a yucky color, but you know what? You still get a $5 from me because this design and the message behind it is incredible.
rainbow_taster
thats an amazing design.. must have taken ages.
again, not so keen on the colour of the shirt, but hey.
pinkdecember
very, VERY brilliant.
mikeb215

shootinstar
I love this a lot. Awesome detail!
NotAfraidofLyfe
Simply Amazing art!!!
OHunique
I think the illustration is incredible. I personally wouldn't wear it. I love colors, and this isn't really doing it for me.
Gobsnocker
Dood, thats sick, in a good way! I really like the mustche!!
meanMRmustard
this is sweet!
person
This is awsome artwork i'm jealous.
papercupmixmaster
I don't know quite why, but this shirt reminds me very much of the Carl Sandburg poem, The Unknown War. I'm not much of one for advertising political messages on my person, but I must say that I would eat steaming yak shit to wear this t-shirt and pick up liberal hipster sluts. I do love this.
DTLA
WOW. liberallific and i love it
love it awesome execution of your concept
drawing is pitch perfect for this design
def buy 5
Devius
lots of work... it looks nice!
Fortino Samano
hang on.when you said this image was inspired by an illustration you saw, does that pretty much ripped it off? if no, well done, it's lovely. if yes, bad man/woman , very ban man/woman
