Christopher Lovell gives us Tales of a Scorched Earth (as printed on Design by Humans’ tee shirt), which I personally think that he tries to portrait war life. Well, since a scorched earth policy is a military strategy which involves destroying anything that might be useful to the enemy. From the beautiful, delicate points of it to the dirty, hopelessness in it and everything in between. And this one quite effectively describes the anger, the heat, the pure flaming octane of life at war.
Halloween Goes Melancholy with Sax Solo
The last few years we have seen a butt-load of movies, books, and tv shows about mythical creatures of the night. Vampires kicked it off with things like Twilight movie and True Blood serials, but werewolves are FINALLY getting some recognition with shows like MTV’s Teen Wolf. Now, combine those scary-yet-sexy creatures with saxophone player, which are always on the hunt for the perfect reed which will fill them with the confidence to perform freely.
Wearing up this design is like stating to the world,
Under the full moon, I transforms into a demonic man-wolf with enormous speed and strength, as well as immunity to injury by virtually any source except inherited silver.

Life may bring sorrow and grief, have you ever feel that your universe sometimes just unfairly concise?
Daily struggles and even hurt the body, mind, constant exhaust.
No place to hide from such situations, not even a heaven on earth.
But then I realize — nobody deserve to live in fear . So, take your own brush then paint your own universe.
Just like a piece of art — choose your theme — and don’t be afraid leave your mark and follow your dream.
And don’t forget to enjoy the painting process, make sure it’s the best part.
Oh, a little bit messy means you learn something new along the way.
*I know it’s not often me being poetic, but I’m fine. Really*
Casting Shadows by Doctor Facilier
This was an illustration of Doctor Facilier: Casting Shadows by Bert Segunial a.k.a b3ef, an illustrator from Philippines which lived in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Doctor Facilier, a.k.a the Shadow Man, is the main villain in The Princess and the Frog and he personifies the Deadly Sin of Greed and Gluttony, for his desire for money and power. Facilier is a smooth-talker of drama and showmanship, and a glutton for power. Facilier controlling and vindictive, doing whatever he can to get what he wants. Facilier’s shadow acts as a familiar and is capable of moving on its own, being able to separate itself from him for a short while as well as changing its shape and size.

Wasted Heroes. Surrealism Attack to Your Shirts
Have you ever seen a piece that you don’t understand the point? The piece is more interesting than the abstract, but still poorly understood. This is called a surrealism, and this theme raised by Wasted Heroes on their tee design. The difference between common surrealist works with the design of Wasted Heroes is people still able to understand what the designer wants to tell, obviously thinking hard way!
First Wasted Heroes surrealist design is Eagle T-Shirt (£ 18.00). The eagle on the shirt is placed right in the eye of the woman. We all know that eagle has extremely keen eyesight to spot which enables them potential prey from a very long distance. This keen eyesight is primarily contributed by their extremely large pupils who ensure a minimum of diffraction of the incoming light. And what will happen if a woman has a beautiful eagle’s eyes? They will of look more and more beautiful.
Another surreal design is on Mechanical Face Tee (£18.00). Imagine if women’s brains are made of machine. Oh, of course, they will be a-boring-robots. You know, the way of thinking and talking of robot is like… a robot! There’s nothing special on robot, if you are a real human. She can’t even seduce. Those surreal men’s tees are printed on a 100% combed cotton jersey t-shirt and screen printed by hand using environmentally friendly water based inks.
Why oh why Wasted Heroes creating surreal design? Wasted Heroes is a fresh alternative t-shirt label developed by Liverpool based graphic designer Russell Reid. Russell is the designer behind the legendary Liverpool club Circus and is responsible for their history of twisted and surreal flyer designs. Wasted Heroes’ designs are inspired by graphic t-shirts, music, and art, where surrealism is one of the most widely known.
