I'm over the moon that Behance featured the Zombie donuts t-shirt in their wacom gallery! I'm extremely honoured to be featured, even more so with a Monster Trunk product.

Monster Trunk has not been up and running that long, 9 months infact, and I can't thank my customers and followers enough for the support you've shown.

I'm working on new products which I'm looking to release after Christmas and I can't wait to let you guys see some sneak peaks! 

You can still pick up the limited edition shirt with a free poster until Christmas at www.monstertrunkcollectables.com

You can also visit the Wacom gallery at http://gallery.wacom.com/

Monster Trunk Christmas Presents!

Christmas is fast approaching and I’m now starting to receive orders that I’m told are going to be christmas presents! I’m planning at least one, maybe a few bundles that will allow customers to get more products for their money.

Any orders placed between today and 20th of Dec will also recieve a free poster and be wrapped especially for Christmas, so if they are meant for a Christmas present, it will be one less present for you to wrap!

Limited Edition Zombie Donuts T-Shirt

After many hours drawing in Photoshop this limited edition design is finally going to be available tonight at 7PM UK time! 

The idea for this shirt came up quite a few years ago while I was still in college. For my final ever project I wanted to create my first few t-shirts (I've always, always dreamed of running my own brand) based on a holiday theme as it was summer. I spent a few days visiting various seaside spots and gathering inspiration for designs. 

I love nothing more than seaside donuts and have always been fascinated by the machines they make them in, I have always loved standing there watching them drop into the oil, sizzle away and then get carried off into the pit of sugar at the end. So I thought, how funny would it be to have a design where the donuts are making human donuts through the machine?

So all these years ago it started out as a design with a big donut machine, an evil laughing donut operating it and little human donuts rolling out of the end. The machine was also placed just under the neck to make it look like the person's head was actually going into the machine! 

I always love the idea but unfortunately after many issues with the printing process at college it just never happened. It has always stuck in the bad of my mind and I always knew I'd eventually turn it into some sort of final product. With Halloween approaching I decided to revisit the idea a couple of months ago and pair it with my favourite Halloween monsters, zombies!

So here it is! All finished up, labels sewn on by yours truly on my new birthday sewing machine! The first 3 people to order also recieve a free original ink drawing with a halloween theme.

You can also get 10% off everything until Monday with the code 'HALLOWEEN' and if you got paid today and fancy treating yourself a little more, you can also get free UK delivery with orders over £30 with the code 'AWESOME'

Happy Halloween!

I first actually started up Monster Trunk about a year ago now, maybe a little bit earlier but I knew the first thing I wanted to do was to release a halloween design. Little did I know I was being led in the wrong direction by someone who gave me advice so everything just ended up taking so much longer than needed. But I got back on track and released my first t-shirt in March. 

Now that we're fast approaching halloween again I didn't want to miss the opportunity this year as it's the perfect excuse to release a design full of what I love most, weird creatures and monsters.

So here is a very early screen shot of what I intend to release at halloween, still in the composition stages but I'm really excited for you guys to see it!

Keep checking back for updates and you can treat yourself to all sorts of other monsters at www.monstertrunkcollectables.bigcartel.com

Working on something I might possibly turn into a print or poster and sell through my online store www.monstertrunkcollectables.com

I’m trying out a couple of new techniques and just having a good old play around in Photoshop with this one. I’m also thinking about posting a blog post describing my process of taking this from sketch to finished piece. So if there’s anything in particular anyone would like to see just let me know!

Started work on a new product adding lines and colour. I'm really looking forward to finishing this :) Treat yourself to some other monsters at www.monstertrunkcollectables.com !
