Artist: Downrodeo
Where are you from?
I hail from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
What inspired you to become an artist?
I used to love the Iron Maiden Eddie artwork, and my brother was/is a really good artist, and that pretty much pointed me in the direction. I actually stopped drawing for about 10 years, but am now back with a vengeance for so much time lost. I’m daft, I should have continued drawing when I was younger.
Who are some of your favorite artists?
Pretty much the entire staff across Marvel and DC, the dude who did Tin Tin… Tee Design Industry: Corefolio!, Jimiyo, Ray Frenden, Florian Bertmer, Dan Mumford, Godmachine, Hydro 74, Brandonheart, Isaboa, AlexMDC, Suffoca… damn, it’s a pretty long list! I missed out a bunch of them too. Street Art: Blu, Elbowtoe, Armsrock, The Everfresh Crew, Sam3, Thunderdog, Doma, Kid Acne, Dave Choe, TLP… again, there’s more, but I think I’m running outta space.
Tell us about your shirt?
Well, I love playing FPS games, and I always envisioned drawing tees in a FPS view [there’s a few more in the works, btw!] so I envisioned this, sketched it out, and by the end of the process it pretty much exceeded what I intended. For the better or worse, I can’t be the judge of it I guess. But I am happy with the end results. My favorite part of the design is probably the sky, and the contents of the dino’s mouth. Oh, who am I kidding, I love the whole thing.

Thanks for the colour info, Paul. I was about to ask. :)
This one is a little too boxy for my liking, but I might have to grab it as a gift for someone that I know would love it immensely.

Really well done, I enjoy the style on this one I can feel the headlights shinning on him. I personally love it with the car….but then again I also love FPS games.
The only problem I have with it is the position of his left leg (our right side) behind the mirror…for the longest time all I was seeing it that this dinosaur must have had an amputation below the knee

I really like the detail and the fact that Rex still has part of his last dinner on his tongue. Nice touch!

heya dudes, thanks all for the comments! Please do keep em coming. :) Yeah, if you could zoom in on it you’ll catch quite a few minor details, like limbs, dice in the mirror and an the detailed sky. It’s feeding time for rex guys, any takers? ;)
