The start of this project was at the beginning of the year I've started to design this illustration in my sketchbook. After a week on it, I wasn't so sure what to do. But with time I saw that around me, in university and also in my friend group, we can start work together as a collectives and that every person can be a task different in what there specialities are.
  Then I found a fabric who had good selling prices for a amount of 50 t-shirts so I went straight to it !
And now, more than half is sold and I'm glad that people liked it.
I'm now thinking starting to do something really serious and try to make a sort of brand that sell is one products and design on paper, canvas or clothes for clients.

Don't Abuse to much.
