Evil Mummy is Getting Printed on 24Tee

Evil Mummy - available from 24Tee on Wednesday 26th October
This evil mummy is not happy to discover that his internal organs are being stored in jars. I think I would be pretty cranky too though after 3000 years locked in a basement. But now he's being revived and stuck on a T-shirt. Doesn't look like its making him too happy though.

24Tee are printing this design on Wednesday the 26th of October. It will be available on their site for 24 hours only, at the very reasonable price of $10.00. So if you fancy a bargain, get yourself over there and grab yourself one. You can't complain at a price like that!

Thanks to 24Tee for picking my design, its great to be working with them.

I Want my Mummy!

Following on from my last post (sort of) here's a mummy's head. This is a slightly more traditional egyptian mummy. The Egyptians used to mummify people by pulling out their internal organs and drying out the remains of their body using salts. The organs were placed into jars and buried with the mummy along with treasures for the dead person to use in the next life. Thankfully (or disappointingly?) no mummies have ever been seen coming back to life. But I suppose there's always a first time. 

I'd be pretty fed-up if I'd spent the last few thousand years trapped in a stone box with a bunch of treasure. Especially if I'd been promised a luxury life in the next world! No wonder the ones in films are always groaning and moaning and chasing people about.

 Haven't done a tattooed one yet, but the idea is still bubbling away back there in the depths of my head.

Anyway if you like him, go and have a look at the store.

Maori Mummified Head

This incredible mummified Maori head is being returned to New Zealand after a 136 year French holiday. The head was apparently given to a museum in Rouen in 1875 by a mysterious man called Drouet.

Not only does it look amazing but its got a mysterious story as well, how could it get any better! The tattoos on the face are incredible. It doesn't exactly look brand new but it certainly doesn't look over a century old.

Apparently these were kept as battle trophies. I don't think I would keep one for long though, those empty eye sockets would start to bore into you after a while. Can you imagine a zombie with that on top of his neck? Now that would be properly scary! Not one of those slow, shambling zombies either, this guy would be a full-on sprinter.

But it might make a pretty good picture, I can feel inspiration hitting me already! :D
