Zombie Ryu




Hey there all you Gibbery Jabbery Gibberish readers out there across cyber space and welcome to yet another, well..... Gibberish blog post! Here is another update on my forever taking Zombie Fighter tee design! This time I am showing off an update in the form of zombie Ryu himself! I had to cut him back a bit here and add a bit there to him to make him more "readable" but here he is! I just hope when everything gets put together at the end it is not too much!


I love his evil blacked out eyes and that lightning power I added to his fist! I also changed the nose to add more of an evil look to the guy but need to add that into Illustrator today!


And here is the final piece with all his five colours and halftone shading in there, minus the background, yellow, and frame of course! Now it is just on to Dhalsim and I can not wait to get started with him hahahahaha. By the way, zombies can be blue right?

Ah well, until the day I grace you with zombiefied stretched arms stay tidy all!! Toodles!!

Zombie lettering


Hey there Gibberish readers! Blog time once again and I am here to show off  more of a progression on my rather slow developing Zombie Fighter tee design. It is getting there mind you and here is yet another step in the right direction! This here is the name title for the tee which is now on top of that finished pile! What yer think of this then huh? I just hope when everything is finished all this will not look too cluttered and is easily readable!


With this layout I was going for that old school Street Fighter 2 logo style but make the lettering look all zombiefied! If yer don't know what I am gibbering on about here is what I mean:


And here is the final Zombie Fighter logo to compare it to! Let me know what yer think of this!



All done using 5 colours and halftone shading, minus the background purple and the frame of course!
Right, now to get on with yet more zombie Ryu! See you later peeps and stay tidy! Toodles!!

Chung- Zomb- Li


Hey there Gibberish readers! Long time since I wrote one of these posts ain't it? Yeah, been too long! The reason being, my new tee design based upon Street Fighter with a zombie twist has been taking it's sweet time getting into. Also, have to say, Zombie Fighter as I am calling it has been helping me improve on a few things. I won't get into that but lets just say I've been wanting to learn a few new tricks! Anyway, I will stop with mah usual gibberish ramblings and show you the work I've been doing with it over the last few days!


As yer can see by these photos been colouring in and getting this zombie Chung Li looking mint and all ghoulish! Love the broken leg here! See she was about to perform her wondrous flash kick but this here zombie Chung Li has become a tad bit rotten!


And here she is all finished and presenting in this frame just for my blog. She is illustrated using 5 colours with a halftone shade which will be used for the whole of this tee design! Mind you I still need to do the other two, Ryu and Dhalsim (along with the title of the tee of course). So it ain't finished yet and there is a lot to do to get there still but it is coming along. Slowly but surely as they say!!

OK back to Ryu! I really wanna start with Dhalsim but I am leaving the best till last I think!! For colour balancing reasons I have done zombie Dhalsim blue! You can get blue zombies right? Besides, one of his alternative colour choices is blue I think! Anyway's, most dash!! Toodles!!

Zombie-Doken!


Hey there Gibberish readers! This week has started off with a bang for sure! Firstly my Alien/Spaceballs design, "Hello Mah Honey" is up on sale but I've been getting on with inking in my new t-shirt design. As you can see I've not yet finished but it is getting there! I hope by the end of the night I will have it all done up!
This here is a Street Fighter themed tee but the characters I've drawn (Ryu, Chung-Li and Dhalsim) are all zombies. I am gonna draw the title above on a separate image then fit both together after. Will have the title, Zombie Fighter but done in the same style as the actual game font with maybe Bison's head above peering over. Also down below will have the words, press start in a pixelated type font. Also I am hoping to add a blood type background in for good measure! It is slow but getting there peeps!


Loving Dhalsim on this one with his long extended arms dragging across the floor with his zombie like dead expression across his mug! I so am looking forward to touching it all up when done later on.


Been on Facebook today? Well, you prob seen me go on about my new tee being up on sale on Unamee! So happy about this as it is my very first one! Great news huh?
It is only $10 / £6 / 7 and all, pretty cheap huh?! if you like it you can go here to pick one up:



OK guys that is me done for today! I am desperate to get back to my Zombie Fighters piece and see it all inked up! I hope yer like my work so far and until next time, stay bang tidy y'all!! Toodles!!

Zombies and Cats


Hello Gibberish readers and welcome to another blog post! I hope everyone enjoyed their chocolate covered Easter break! Everyone's on one of those chocolate come down stories no doubt :P. I was munching away like no other myself and why not huh?

Well, back to blogging after not doing much these past few days! I did ink in that Totoro tee design I was doing but then got an idea for something new. I had the idea of doing a Street Fighter themed tee but a couple of the characters as zombies. Don't ask me why though hhahahah I just thought it would be fun! I felt like I would rather do themed reference t-shirts in my own style. I am not overly keen on just copying a style or trying to. Want to see my Zombie Fighter tee design so far? Not yet finished as you can tell, still needs a lot of work but it is coming a long I guess!


It has Ryu just because he is seen to be the main street fighter character. But then it has Chun-Li (not yet finished) doing her kick but being a zombie and all her leg is falling off because it has rotted away! Wanted to add her as she is the main female character plus her costume is mostly blue which will add more of a change of colour to everything else. On the other side of Ryu is Dhalsim who even though is not a main character will add a bit more silliness to the whole thing. With his ability to stretch his arms I thought it would be funny to have him as a zombie but his long arms dragging across the ground as if his arms can not shrink back into place!

Oh, and here is the ink work I've done on my Totoro tee design! I took a break but it will be nice to get back to it and see what it looks like put together at some stage!



Right, I am off to do some more Zombie Fighter and eat something. Thanks for reading guys and hope everyone has a good week ahead! Until next time peeps, stay bang tidy!! Toodles!!
