digital mock-up displayed above.
Artist: Kontrast
My name is Tommy (Artem) Khrustalev. I’m a 19 years old artist, was born in Ukraine and am currently living in Calgary, AB, Canada.
I’ve been into art since i was a kid, was drawing my notebook at classes time. but took it seriously when i was 13, then i found my interest in digital art. Now, 6 years later, i achieved a few goals i set to myself, have a few goals for the future and i know art is going to be my profession.
Art for me is pretty much everything. as you can see in my online portfolio, i love to try myself in different directions. But my favorite kind which is also my original style, is monsters illustrations. :)
About this design: I love to take shots down the street and use it in my designs.
I took a shot of my neighbor’s old van and just gave this worm monster to take a ride.
pretty simple illustration of mine which i guess makes a cool shirt.

Of course, my kids each want one. Please consider doing smaller sizes and female styles.

This is so cool, great subtle color choices. I really like how the worm pops out of the van so vividly.

TJ, you totally stole my dream. I do have an orange ’66 FJ40 in the meantime to keep me smiling.
This shirt reminds me of my uncle’s green VW bus he had when I was a wee girl. Good times traveling in that green machine.
I wish you all offered chick sizing. The male shirts are just too big and boxy for me. I know – be patient, Miss McAnxiousPants. But I’m so tempted to look frumpy anyway. Is this one kelly green?

@Spastastic Nomadic – WOW you have an orange ’66 FJ40! :( I’m now really sad and jealous

Women’s shirts PLEASE!
[Reply]
Yeah this shirt rules. It will be funny if we start allowing women’s shirts and no one buys them.

This is nice. If only it were a classic Samba VW :(

I love this shirt. My favorite color is green. Bought two robot shirts last week so I cannot buy this one. Darn! Keep up the great designs.

There is still a demand for these shirts amongst VW bus owners.
