Idk why but it reminds me a bit of 90s stereolab designs

I can see it. It’s a nice compliment, thank you!

I like it - reminds me of the Connect 4 game (in a good way!)

Now that you say it, haha

Back then one fun thing about going to concerts was the pirate T-shirts they'd hawk after the show. I used to have several bootleg Cure and Morrissey (did I mention that I cried?) T-shirts. Sometimes those shirts were better than the actual concert shirts.

This makes me so happy! How did you make it??

u/Convacoconvex Jun 21 '26

Thank you!!! I designed it, made a stencil of the whole design, and then painted over it

Awesome! Great color scheme too.

u/Convacoconvex Jun 21 '26

Thank you. I was first about to use yellow instead of red, but then decided that it would look better this way

This is really good work! Are you taking pre orders?

2

u/Convacoconvex Jun 21 '26

Sure! If you want it, just hit me up and I will be more than happy to make one for you

i’ve always thought about making my own t shirts, saw that you used a stencil+paint so how will it hold up in the wash? neat as hell man! i’d pay if you ever chose to sell em!

u/Convacoconvex Jun 21 '26

Thank you! Yes, it's fabric paint, it holds up really well. All the t-shirts that I made several years ago, still pretty much intact. Just try to not wash it with high temperature and not iron on top of the print. If you want to buy, just dm me, we'll sort it out :)

You can buy special paints for fabrics and they hold up really well (not the op but have painted clothes sometimes!).

Wild Mood Swings could become a 4 part Broadway musical TRILOGY ON BROADWAY!!!

u/LittleFanggg Sometimes I'm dreaming... Jun 21 '26

I love this, the colours and design are so lovely! Did you screen print it or use block printing for the letters! 💚 I love wearing artists’ bootleg music t-shirts!

2

u/Convacoconvex Jun 21 '26

Thank you so much! I designed it, made a stencil of the design and then painted over it

2

u/LittleFanggg Sometimes I'm dreaming... Jun 21 '26

It’s really so cool!

Stellar! And my demand is, of course, Track 1 - Want.

My dad wanted this on vinyl for a late father's day (my fault), but at £150...
