For some time, I've wanted some furry artwork to print on a shirt, specifically a shirt to give away to people who helped fund the nestorgames edition of my board game
Battle of LITS. I'll give two shirts away and get one for myself. Because I have a low budget, I can't exactly afford to commission Virmir right now (although things could change in the future). Unfortunately, neither of the other artists I've asked who are both cheap and good have had time to come through. So instead, I'm going to ask people on the forums, if they have enough kindness in their heart to draw free stuff, to do it for me! You'll get nothing out of it except the opportunity to hone your art skills, but isn't that enough for some budding artists?
I want the shirt to feature my Jack Russell Terrier character Brian Dewitt (

There's no need for a background; the characters can just be in a white void for all I care, and in fact, I think it would look better on a shirt that way. Other than that, I suppose you can be creative (or sketch stuff and ask me about it).
In the interest of full disclosure, note that there are a couple of artists whose styles I like (
Norzman and
Rawr) and who have expressed interest in doing this for cheaper than the $40 I'd have to pay Virmir. Neither of them has actually had time to draw something yet, but if either of them does, I might be more inclined to use their artwork for the shirt I get myself, because they're friendly, and stuff. However, if I have multiple shirt submissions in this thread, perhaps it is only fair that I let the winners of said shirts pick what they want to wear. Therefore, even if Norzman or Rawr comes through, if you feel inclined to create your own interpretation, don't be too discouraged; you will, after all, be able to develop your skill, if nothing else comes of it, and you might still be donating artwork to someone else's shirt!
