This looks great! Love the style. In for one :D

(and is it just me, or does the detail image look soft? like it was scaled up or something?)

That strawcastle link points to teefury! Hehehe... sneaky... anywho cool design. I'm not a fan of text so I wouldn't wear it myself but I do commend the illustration! (although the detail shot looks a little out of focus :$)

Thanks all! The detail does look a little fuzzy... weird. I just wanted to post the link to wwww.strawcastledesign.com. Hopefully that can get fixed up pretty soon.

Thanks again for the comments!

My 2nd shirt designed by castle. I'll honestly probably buy all the shirts you design that show up on teefury.

This one is great, I knew within 2 seconds I was purchasing.

In my experience teefury don't print the designs that big on shirts. Is it this big because it is one color?

Jimiyo, tell that to UPS. Fools only let us have a mustache. What 24 year old wants a mustache? Before driving I had a huge beard, I was very proud of and I looked badass. Now that I'm clean shaven I feel like a weakling and I hate the way I look.

Fed ex can have goatees, but also aren't union and make literally HALF what UPS drivers make. Bah.

Anyway, I'm excited to see what Castle has on teefury, hopefully within a couple weeks we can see another one!!

Olechkasaid 176 weeks ago

Aha! I can see on the book cover that that's where the Lumberjacked design (previously on TeeFury) came from. Too bad that one was about 95% clip-art :(

Interesting clipart design.

Amagoisaid 176 weeks ago

So vintage and different! Unfortunately, it's not exactly my personal style (it kinda feels like a shirt more fit for guys, heh)...but I still can't help appreciate the uniqueness of this awesome design.

Hope to see more of your work here :D

Mad Chop Barbershop

About the artist

Castle

Art curated by

jimiyo

Words from the curator:

You know what I like about Derrick besides his Ralphie getting Red Ryder BB Gun expression avatar? He has a style that's distinct, recognizable, and all his own.

Map props to Mad Chops yo!

Tell us about this design.

I wanted to do a design based on the old school Barbershop. I've noticed the Barbershop craze coming back after all these years, going and getting a hot towel shave with the straight razor. That's the way it should be, a man should go to the barber not some sissy salon.

Are there any ongoing art projects you would like to promote?

I've always got lots of stuff going on. Something that I'd love to really get rolling is my Straw Castle Design store front. I've been printing up designs that I think best represent me and my style, also designs that I think would be marketable to other people like me. This is something that has really been fun and inspiring.

www.strawcastledesign.com

In a duel to the death, Jean Luc Picard or Captain Kirk? And Why?

I don't know about those two but Malcolm Reynolds would kick both their arses! Mal is a total bad ass that's not afraid to fight dirty or do what ever is necessary to reign supreme!

You are on Death Row. What's your last supper?

I'd probably have to go with a great big Cajun feast. I'd start with some chicken and andouille sausage gumbo and maybe some Cajun crab cakes for an appetizer, then do some crawfish etouffee with a side of red beans and rice, Turbo Dog to drink.

If being an artist was not an option, what would be your second choice profession?

I'd be a Professional Chef, I've always been into cooking. I'd actually still like to own a restaurant. I would like to conceptualize it from start to finish, everything from the interior design, menu design, plating design, recipes and everything. I always find myself going into a restaurant thinking of how I would design the space if I was the owner. Or how easy it would be to design a good menu or plate the food in a much more compelling and appetizing way.

Any shout outs?

My wife & kids! Shout out to everyone over at emptees! To my peeps in the office: Joe, Jessi, Natalie, Greg, Wes, Jonathon.... my number one fan Scudder ;0) and Frank in Cali!
