What Happens In Hell

What Happens from Felon Clothing

I spent 12 years working in the automotive industry, during which time I acquired a love of the hot rod and rockabilly culture. Do yourself a favour, go hang out with them and soak up the atmosphere. There is a real sense of community and fun amongst the music and fumes. This tee sums up that feeling perfectly. There is a cheekiness to the artwork which is very well done and polished, yet still shows a vintage flair and roughness.

Fvneral Apparel

Fvneral Apparel

It's finally here. I have been waiting (pretty impatiently) for this brand to launch. Fvneral is the brainchild of artist Robert Borbas aka. Grindesign and features not just his work but also the likes of Craig Robson, Joshua Andrew Belanger and Niclas Mortensen. After lots of sneak peek teases on facebook it is great to have a good look at the designs. Make sure you head on over and have a look for yourself.

Tales Of A Scorched Earth

Tales of A Scorched Earth by Christopher Lovell

I have featured Chris Lovell's work before because his work is always amazing. I think he has outdone himself with this one though. While it is the stuffed animals that first draw you in, they do so by giving you a false sense of security. This is a post apocalyptic scene the like of which has never been seen before. Scantily clad babes with gun belts are wearing some of the decapitated heads. I really like how all the faces look so sad and deranged, a far cry from what we are used to from childrens toys. A dead tree reaching its bare limbs into the sky adds to the morose feeling. There is a Smashing Pumpkins song with the same name as this shirt. I am not sure if was the inspiration but not only would this make a great tee for that song, it would actually fit in with all the artwork on that album.

Joshua

Joshua from Dr. Popcorn

As a poker player I am always interested in cool card themed tees. Unfortunately they are few and far between. With the sudden, massive popularity boost of poker a few years back it seemed every man and his dog was trying to cash in on it. The problem was most were just plain terrible. Poker terminology and cheap clipart abounded. The sort of crud no poker player would ever actually wear but end up with anyway via gifts from well meaning family and friends. I would wear this shirt. A skull with mohawk and beard, some sort of animal skulls either side, (rats?) and fine swirls and smoke joining the lot together to make the overall spade shape.

Never Say Die

Never Say Die from 8-bit Zombie

I remember as a child watching The Goonies repeatedly. I loved that movie. In fact I still do, although I have not seen it for a while now. This tee brought all those fantastic childhood memories flooding back. So much so that I am going to turn off the computer, rummage through my old movies and kick back to enjoy this classic all over again. Always remember, Goonies never say die.

Balloons

Balloons from De Bellemort

 I love the crazy surreal aspect of this tee. Skulls as balloons has been done before but the fact that lots of different skulls (including some animal) have been used instead of repeating the same one sells this for me. It is from a French site whose name roughly translates as Lovely Death. Rather fitting I think.
