T-shirts with Banana Sprinkles




i got some decent screenprinting fabric paint as i was really disapointed with the way the fabric spraypaint came out, i used the screenprinting paint with a stencil and a roller and it worked really well, it gave a very clean crisp image

The First Sample T-shirt


i ordered some blank t-shirts and this is the first one that i tested out on! im not too happy with the spray paint so im gonna look into screen printing, still though thats what samples are for!

Super Mario's abode...



So i started construcing some pieces of my set for my upcoming Super Mario Animation, the pieces are constructed from basla wood so they are very lightweight, it also means they can be just glued together!

Banana Bombs!

Banana Bombs!



a more finished design to my Banana Jims cereal "Banana Bombs!" the image with less colour was the result of some expirimentation with the scanned image that i felt was worthy to include as a more old school look for the box. i still want to tweak the layout a bit more as i feel it could be better

Banana Bombs!



Redesigning the Cereal box, i scanned my watercolour into the comp and vectorised it, just seeing if it works! it gives a smoother image which i like but its hit and miss! some stuff does not look as good when vectored...
the top image is the original and the one below that is the vector image, have a look at full size to see the difference

Banana Bombs!


The First initial sketch that i did for my Banana Jims Cereal and the remake i did the other day, i want to improve and work on the banana jims bit on the cereal as i feel it doesnt work with the text from my stamp! it needs something more simple!
