Shirt design

One sunny day, a dinosaur was out foraging for food. He came across a fresh piece of meat that was just sitting on the ground. After making sure there was no competition, he fixed his eye keenly on the prey, approaching it slowly and cautiously, as any good hunter would do. When the dinosaur was within striking distance, he pounced and let out the mightiest roar he was capable of. His prey trembled and shook as he terrorized it. Pausing to see whether his tactics had worked, the dinosaur leaned in closely to inspect his soon-to-be lunch. The meat did not move. Joyously, he picked it up, proud that he had captured it so successfully. "It never had a chance against me!" he thought. "It didn't even try to put up a fight because I am so ferocious!" With another roar of pride, the dinosaur plopped down, and reaped his delicious rewards.

I designed the pictures for a sweatshirt as a birthday gift for my friend. He's not a dinosaur, but all the other characteristics fit. To get the images on a sweatshirt, I drew the pictures with pencil and paper and scanned them into a computer. Using Adobe® Photoshop®, I cleaned up the lines and then printed the final images onto iron-on transfer paper. To finish, I ironed them onto a plain white Hanes® hoodie et voilà!
