Shirt.Woot

why am i so fascinated with skull shirts??

in for one!

Looks like a cave full of scary, which for some people is a good thing.

I thought for sure there must be some sort of joke here. But no. It appears to be exactly what it claims, a skull with celtic weaving. Go figure.

Hmm, after a little more digging, I found some potential meanings for the skull.

Well this is raising my awareness, until now I knew nothing about Celtic Skulls. Unfortunately I still know very little.

That is ... absolutely phenomenal. Now if I can just stop staring at it long enough to buy one. -:O Crazy amazing work.

For people who like skulls for Halloween, this shirt is just in time. =D

I like the design, but I'm not sure I like the color of the shirt.

Does anyone know if the picture is a good representation of a "silver" shirt, or do they look better in person?

Dang! Nice skull

YMMV, but in my experience, the silver shirts have turned out to be quite a bit lighter than how they appear on my monitor.

Well, I guess that's what I get for checking in on shirt.woot before I go to bed. Thanks for the nightmares!

Not sure if it's a good representation, but I like my silver shirts. It's a very muted color that lets the ink colors shine.

Looks like an excellent shirt for folk metal fans! \m/

I agree completely.

I really like this design...my only issue (very minor)is that celtic overlay seems to have a flattening effect on the lumps and bumps of the skull (the zygomatic arch, the curves parietal and temporal bones, etc...)rather than accentuating them.

Am I the only one that was reminded of this?

This looks like the wicker chair that's unraveling on my front porch.

Can anyone find a triquetra in the knots?

Hamlet channeling time nao?

To be or not to be?!

Looks like it's growing larger, I know my t-shirt drawer is. Nice lines.

Boom I Clicked they BUY button!!!!

Great mixture of beauty and chilling, with a bit of Halloween flavoring.

Very nice design.

To be or knot to be...

Is the silver more of a grey that's close to white, or actually have a shine, or brightness to it? If it's really understated and close to white, good with dark jeans, I'm in.

You're right about that. I love folk metal and I really like this shirt.

nice design thirsty fly

While I appreciated the design I see nothing Celtic about it. The 'knots' look like a simple basket weave or something. I see nothing that looks like a Celtic knot.

Congrats ThirstyFly! Awesome illustration!

this is a sick looking shirt

Congrats Rachel, amazing ilustration!

I'm a big fan of one color designs. Congratulations on the print!

I couldn't get away with wearing this on my chest, but I'm sorely tempted to buy just to hang on the wall. This is outstanding illustration.

I love the organic feel of this. The way it appears that the decaying musculature is weaving itself into the knots, transforming. The Celts always were (and still are) a pretty morbid folk, in a really wonderful way.
Excellent design.

Flawless linework!

I didn't know Celtic people had skulls.

I guess in many ways they're just like us.

Great writeup guys. Normalcy mixed with a liberal dose of absurdity? Genius!

I love it.

Guy must have been a basket case...

Loving the design but....

I think I might be counting an extra tooth on both the top and bottom. The human dental formula is 2:1:2:3 (2 incisors, 1 canine, 2 premolars, and 3 molars).

Or maybe I should stop studying for my Anthropology Lecture and just buy the shirt!

Possibly.
