No computer fonts were harmed in the making of this tee. Text and burst were both hand drawn from scratch.
I’m sure this isn’t an original idea for a shirt but I just thought I’d do my own interpretation.
burst, chris, comicbook, comics, dots, effect, pop, pow, punch, red, retro, sound, wahl, yellow

You drew this by hand? How it comes out so well? Its brillaint
I would of used white isntead of red though.,.. jsut a thought
Yeah, all drawn by hand. I used to hand letter my own comics back in the nineties before computer fonts.
I’ll have a fiddle with the white and red and see how it turns out. Thanks!
Np
Personally I like the red – it’s a POW! after all and the red is more dynamic and eye-catching. Nicely done :o)
Red and yellow is classic, yellow on white is egg.
I actually own a pow shirt, but the lettering is nowhere near as explosive as this puppy.
Yeah I tried the white, but the yellow gets a bit lost. So yeah, red’s definitely the way to go.
Thanks everyone.
Instead of the flat colour I’ve added some subtle dots in the background to give it a bit more detail and interest. Let me know what you think.
The dots are great Chris, I was going to comment on them before I realised they were a refinement!! Pow indeed!!
dots = cool :o)
Love it! And yay to the hand-lettering, that’s a real skill.
