    Nice!!!!!
  • Platinusaid 38 weeks ago

    Nice, I never noticed his coat of arms being that. Time to watch it again.
  • dfragrancesaid 38 weeks ago

    Oh Monty Python. It's refreshing to see a reference from that!

    Well done on the design!
  • goodbookssaid 38 weeks ago

    Awesome design, but a little too subtle of a reference for me.
  • zseeker1115said 38 weeks ago

    Not crazy on the design. It isn't aesthetically appealing to me.

    His coat of arms is interactive in the old PC game. You need it to sneeze out the fire if you drop the torch in his tent. I recognized what this was going for with the title as a clue, but by itself, I'm just not sure it would hold a lot of meaning for casual observers.
  • khefferonsaid 38 weeks ago

    nice side art
  • theH0undsaid 38 weeks ago

    Nice!! Love the shirt! Bought!
  • WinterArtworksaid 38 weeks ago

    nice one Sassa!

    LOL! Red Hog Beer - the beer that ALWAYS TRIUMPHS!!!
  • Chompysaid 38 weeks ago

    like the reference, just don't think it's strong enough for a shirt.
    Maybe if the whole shirt was black armour and you could see the red bits of blood where his arms use to be then people would get it.

    'tis but a scratch'
  • okelnardsaid 38 weeks ago

    I thought at first it might be a Richard III reference (Ian McKellen as Richard III is such a brilliant movie)... then I read the "tell us about..." still pretty cool... what do the "letters" mean?

  • JBBaileysaid 38 weeks ago

    Sweet! That's on the top of my family crest, as well.
  • sassatattoosaid 38 weeks ago

    hello! I really hope you enjoy this shirt.
    Is good to be here again among good people.
    cheers

    it means "Killer"
  • kboldebooksaid 38 weeks ago

    I'm a huge Monty Python fan, but I'm a little confused as to why it says "убийца"--to my knowledge that means something like a female murderer in Russian. Or am I missing something?

    It's Russian. It doesn't exactly mean killer, but that is the gist of it. FYI, I'm assuming the artist used an online translating site because he used the feminine style of the word.

    I think the implied joke is "lady killer." I see what you did there.
  • Shadessaid 38 weeks ago

    Ahh! It's so close to being a buy for me as I especially love the Black Knight, but a shirt concerning the Black Knight has to be black!
  • PureInvasionsaid 38 weeks ago

    i'm 26 and never seen Monty Python yet...oh well

    good luck with those sales!

  • Biolantysaid 38 weeks ago

    If you could make anyone besides yourself Ruler of the Universe, who would you choose and why?
    If i couldn't rule the world, maybe mom could give me Disneyland. With zombified characters.

    This Quote alone means I need this shirt. Your Twisted Sensibilities must be encouraged.

    heheheh . Thanks a lot, my friend!
  • Vectorsaid 38 weeks ago

    Убийца can denote both male and female killer/murderer and has nothing to do with «lady killer» as «seducer» (you better use something like серцеед for that).

    Greetings from Russia.

    Thanks a lot for that explanation, bro! I really did it in a translator.

    ACTUALLY...

    "убийца" is a gender-neutral word for "killer" in Russian. It applies equally to killers of male or female persuasion.

    Actually, it's a bit more grim than "killer", in the sense of "killer" being a possible term of endearment in English, while "убийца" has no such connotation. It does not quite imply the premeditation of a "murderer", or the state or a group endorsement given to an an "executioner". Instead, it just means a person who kills other people. Literally, and not figuratively. :)

    ALL THAT SAID.... the lettering is a mess, to the point of looking like mixed case. The "и" and "й" are supposed to have same height bodies. The "ц" extends below the line, whereas the "б" has to be as high as a capital letter (instead of being the same height as the "и", which makes the "и" seem like it's capitalized.

    Being a native Russian speaker, I love finding Russian language shirts on shirt-a-day sites, but this one is... iffy.
  • Spazgirlsaid 38 weeks ago

    The art is well done, but way too obscure.
  • The_Morgsaid 38 weeks ago

    Wow, talk about attention to detail!! I, too, have never paid such close attention to his crest... This might have to become part of my ultra-geeky shirt collection... :D

    It's a unisex word, it can be a guy who is убийца or a girl. Im Russian, trust me. it means just that: killer, no slang implied. Killer in a full sense of the word.
  • Swordfishsaid 38 weeks ago

    I for one am glad it's not black! Black is very heavily used, and it's refreshing to see other colours.
  • madman325said 38 weeks ago

    I actually find it very refreshing to see a subtle reference on a tee. Some are too spelled out for what the reference is, and a perfectly good shirt is ruined by being too busy. Cheers to the artist!
  • BigfootHuntersaid 38 weeks ago

    Like the design, except the Russian "killed" it for me. No reason for that to be on there. I agree shirts like this that are subtle are great, and a welcome change from all the pointelss "MashedPotatoes" , but I don't want to have to explain why there's Russian on it.

    Why is there Russian on it anyway?

    Sooo close, but not a buy.

    Russian boar is my guess.
  • mkamausaid 38 weeks ago

    Even when you strip away the reference, it's a highly wearable design. I need to check the couch cushions so I can get this one.
  • misnomersaid 38 weeks ago

    I like it. I'm gonna get it. I do agree with odeen up there about the letter height thing, but no one I will run into will have the slightest clue.
  • suicidefoxxsaid 38 weeks ago

    I thought it was a TMNT Bebop shirt at first. Man was I wrong.
  • timmhensonsaid 38 weeks ago

    i really want to get this, but I never wear this color of shirts and I have like four of them from TeeFury that are this flat gray...

    ugh, that symbol though. Such nerd significance... ill have to think for the next 13 hours.
  • froglegsaid 38 weeks ago

    I really like stuff like this. I actually prefer wearing a shirt that has a reference to something I like, but doesn't beat people over the head.
  • Driversaid 38 weeks ago

    I love it, good design, good movie, good side art and this tee isn't so IN YOUR FACE like a lot of other 'fan/movie' tees.
  • TeeMTsaid 38 weeks ago

    nice style
  • JDinSdsaid 38 weeks ago

    after some thought... i've decided i wish i could buy this and feel like i would wear it. as i have bought every other python / holly grail reference shirt on here and other sites... cuz it's a great reference to a great plot point in a great movie... but it's not a great design for a shirt... similar to another poster, i guess i wish it was on a black shirt, and or, had some other metal stylings around it, to give it a sort of "armor'ed" look about it.

    but it is a solid effort and congrats and best wishes to the artist!
  • Onisaid 38 weeks ago

    Love it, purchased!
  • zerofan92said 38 weeks ago

    I actually love this shirt. Only true Monty Python fans can appreciate this!
  • sladebugsaid 38 weeks ago

    Cool design, but I'm rather confused as to why the text is in russian. Like, i guess lady killer is a cute play on words, but it kind of doesn't fit the movie at all.

  • studioplantsaid 38 weeks ago

    Done! Sold! I have been avoiding buying your tees lately, but this struck me in the center of my very old nerd heart. All you young people who have not seen this film are lesser people until you do so. Also, if the artist used the feminine style of the word, even better!

    Nice looking shirt, it's a shame I'm not a Monty Python fan. :o

    indeed! Go now and buy, steal, borrow, netflix... something! get the tv series and watch ALL of them. Then watch the movies in order. Life will almost make sense then...

    but, you'll still wonder why not enough people wear hats.

    it means "Killer"


    It specifically means assassin, murderer or murderess. It fills both feminine and masculine roles in Russian, while in Bulgarian it's only feminine and thus means only murderess, etc.

  • avaldemonsaid 38 weeks ago

    "убийца" means killer/murderer. There is no "female" version of the word. It is the same for both males and females. How do I know? I'm a native speaker.
