I should mention here that the shirt could also come in dark black, night black, crow black or ink black. I'd consider cavern black too, maybe.

Wow...how much of a pain in the ass was this to create anyways?!
Ray.
   Ray. on Jul 05 '06
It's not a pain in the ass aside from the mental anguish associated with the searing fires of hell that await me
Ray.
   Ray. on Jul 05 '06
Other than the searing hellfire, just some ink an a pen, no prob

chemi hydro on Jul 06 '06
I also don't like the text. I think its more menacing without it. TO me it's like telling someone that joke is funny, they should already know it and the design is so effective without it. But it's your work obviously and I just like leaving comments like everyone else : (
Ray.
   Ray. on Jul 06 '06
Thanks for the comments and crits, guys.

The no text thing is a common request, but I'll tell you right now that text is integral to my work, and I'll never take it out. I'm not explaining anything with the text, it just adds more weird context.

As for the size, It can't be smaller. The beast hath decreed it as such.

For this:
"looks like it says Narkness Cometh " or
" Markness Cometh "

Neither of those are words, so I'm pretty sure people will see Darkness. Unless they, like my dark master, can speak in tongues, in which case they'll know that 'narkness' means "Ring the Bells of The BeastMaster" and that 'Markness' means "To feed it souls".

Asked and answered!
Ray.
   Ray. on Jul 06 '06
Oh, and someone mentioned Elvis Swift... I hadn't seen his work before, it's rad, thanks!

Why does everyone put $5? Ray's style exceeds that of which the Threadless community is worthy. Boop!
Ray.
   Ray. on Jul 07 '06
$5 means they would pay 5 dollars for one night of romance with me, which is flattering

I like the yellow blobs, but would that design be ideal in the middle?

Try the side..perhaps.
howardschiller
howardschiller on Jul 09 '06
It's a buy for me, but I'd rather not have the yellow splotches.
For me they distract from the elegance of the rest.

With any other color but yellow and maybe not the ambiguous text [Markness? Narkness?], $5.

I know scoring is over but I had to post just to say that I can't believe some people actually told Ray Fenwick "no text." Get a clue!
