Hey man, nice shirt.

I just made this shirt yesterday and I couldn’t help but post it up here right away!

My older sister is always getting me in to comics and graphic novels, and most recently she got me on Scott Pilgrim.  If you haven’t noticed, they’ve made a movie based on this series – Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.  Because of my excitement for this movie, I decided to make a shirt from Vol. 6, Scott Pilgrim’s Finest Hour.  I had been wanting to make it after I finished reading that volume, but the other day I saw some footage of Comic Con where they were screen printing a whole slew of shirts, the one I had been thinking of making being one of them.  So obviously that made me get off my butt and make one for myself!

Ta da!

I’m in the process of making one for my younger sister.  I also want to make a Sex Bob-omb shirt as well.

Okay, well this little guy is actually a dimetrodon which makes him a pelycosaur rather than a dinosaur, but we can just pretend.  I’ve seen this idea before, stringing up little trinkets and toys to create new jewelry, and for some reason I decided I needed a dinosaur necklace.  I was quite surprised at how hard it was to find small dino toys, but eventually I found a big pack of them for 3 bucks so I snatched it up.  Most of the dinos in the package are too large for what I wanted to do, so I need to figure out what to do with them.  There were, however, about 4 or 5 guys in the package that would work just fine.

Here’s the little guy I picked.
