Nerd gets Hurt - t-shirt by YAWN
Aw – this nerd really thought he could cut it. This cautionary tale just goes to show that if you try and play the big boys’ game you might get hurt..
This great illustration from YAWN shows a great use of perspective and angles to get the point across. Whether you’re the sort of person who’d stand and laugh at the nerd, or (like me), you’re more likely to be the one on the deck with the broken glasses – this is a great and unique design to wear with pride.
Darth Star - Star Wars T-Shirt by Naf4d
Star Wars t-shirts are everywhere! - Hey I’ve even had a go myself (and I may not be done yet).
There’s just something unique about it that moved a couple of generations of people. There’s lots of innovative designs out there, but I’m really loving this one by Naf4d, as the attention to detail and the process involved illustrates it was something of a labour of love.
“I drew the Death Star then started the long process of resizing and placing each ‘star’ – It took ages to do and the computer I used to do it (8-core Mac Pro with 14 gig of Ram) was pushed to the max and even that beast struggled towards the end!”
I’m certainly not going to count how many stars are on this design! Another thing I like is that the head looks completely different from far away and close up:
William Shakespeare - the inspiration for Darth Vader?
From a distance you could be forgiven for thinking it’s a portrait of William Shakespeare (what? just me?).
At closer quarters, the design almost looks like a huge collection of empire bling, with hundreds of death star-shaped jewels adorning the dark lord’s helmet.
Maybe the bejewelled helmet comes out on special occasions…
Have a closer look on Redbubble.
