Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Also have a few other shirt designs getting printed in the coming months, in particular a variant of the Ocarina design from earlier, as well as the Eleven design in the post just previous to this one. I haven't ordered new shirts in good while so it's nice to get some of my own designs to wear for free
Here's what I've been working on during exams:
Some stuff from this past week:
My Spidey Cents are Tingling
Cannot be unseen
The textural details you've used on the last couple are a pleasent departure from some of your earlier super geometrically perfectly clean ones.
I think you have a very unique and interesting artistic voice which makes me wonder how you would handle more weightier topics. Political or social.
Also silkscreening isn't overly hard or expensive to start. You could easily print your own shirts and sell online. Bet you'd do pretty darn well. Just a thought.
Textures are fun to work with, I'd definitely like to experiment a lot more in that area. I try to keep to a lot of solid vector stuff because it's easier to print for shirt sites (and less chance of ending up with messy halftones) but it's nice to experiment with textures for prints. Sometimes it's a symptom of doing a lot of geometric designs, I use it as a crutch to try to hide that they aren't particularly intricate designs D: But overall I try to be conscientious of that, it's getting easier as I get more experience.
Unfortunately my location limits my shipping options to either Canada Post, which takes forever, or Fedex/UPS, which are horribly expensive here. When I move to the mainland I'd like to look at doing my own printing but for now I rely on Society6 to do the heavy lifting, which isn't ideal but it works for the time being.
Thanks for the comments!
Not to turn this into an advertising thread, but I unexpectedly have two shirts up for sale today! I got word just a day ago that my Eleven design was going to get printed Thurs/Fri, and then to my surprise I stumbled upon my print at shirt.woot too! I'm filing it under 'good surprise':
It's my first print with shirt.woot and I am pumped, instead of being the one buying them, I get to make one of them!
Oh, and Valve should just use that design for half-life(2 part)3 (?!) if they ever come around making buckets of money from steam and maybe remember they still have story to finish. truly really good stuff.
(p.s.: Your previous stuff is also pretty rocking of course.)
Had to stare a while at the HL3 one though. Perhaps just rotate the 3 character so it's an upright three with the lamba flag at the top? or would that make it a bit too unrecognisable.
But again, LOVE the portal design.
Do you have any idea if it can be delivered all the way here? is there a shipping fee? would it take ages ? Paypal friendly ?
SELL ME THE STUFF!! PLEEEEAASE!!!!

And thanks for the kind comments too, I had a lot of fun doing that Portal piece so I've started work on some other video game poster ideas. My goal is to get a first draft of something completed this weekend, hopefully saying it in word form will make it happen!

1) As a small side note, one day, I really hope to be King Penis of Fuck Mountain.
2) No shitty anime or wolf-people, take that crap to deviant art
Yep, awesome.
You have some amazing stuff in here Kronus!
I've never played SotC, but all I hear are good things around these parts and now I want to play it just so I can say I have so that I can buy a print of this.
Because it is so good.

I want that in me.
Also pretty much all of your stuff- it really seems like you've found a great groove.
I had to stop midway through the title bit so the red stuff behind the title just stops at the moment, just wanted to do it up to a certain point to get a feel for how it would with the rest of the poster. Unfortunately I won't be able to print it with the black border, I was just playing around with it. I like it a lot, maybe I will do a couple of custom prints like this in the future. I've been asked for wallpaper sizes of my last few posters so with this one I'm going to try and design a landscape view as I'm making the poster (I didn't include it here because I haven't quite gotten that far yet
Relevant: Shadow of the Colossus wallpaper (2560x1440)
Super Metroid wallpaper (1920x1080)
Here's what I've been up to over the past few months!
