To the drawing board




Thought I'd post a few images of a piece which has been ongoing for some time now. I put a hold on the design whiles trying to complete the collection for this season, but I thought I'd return to the piece which should be finished in the next few days or so. The initial idea has been in the pipeline for a while and it will be released as a collaboration t-shirt between Retreat and my good friends over in Berlin Germany at Overkill Store.
Stay tuned for the release. The design is looking nooiiice!!!!

Giovannino De Grassi


The Model Book of Giovannino de Grassi is the best known and most precious manuscript in the "Angelo Mai" Library in Bergamo and is commonly regarded as the most important example of late Italian Gothic art. Created in the late 14th century at the Visconti court, the codex, a so-called model book, comprises 77 drawings and 24 letters of the alphabet in excellent quality.

Website back in business

Sorry about the website being down earlier.
I'm guessing we exceeded the monthly traffic quota allowance due to the write up on Hypebeast.
All sorted now.

Hypebeast


Thanks to the guys at Hypebeast for the write up. I thought it was only a matter of time. lol
I'm guessing this extra exposure to the brand is the reason why our monthly traffic quota allowance has exceeded. I'm working on it as I type. Website should be back up ASAP.
To checkout the write up goto Hypebeast

Bode Squadron tee


The Bode Squadron piece will be limited to a 30 piece run. No reprints.
Once all orders from stockists have been completed, should there be any tees left (which I seriously doubt) they will go on the website online store.

Spring/Summer linesheet teasers

The linesheets have been completed and sent out to stores worldwide.
In the meantime I thought I'd put up a few pictures for you guys to look at.

Checkout the Vaughn Bode design. The copyright go ahead was confirmed by Mark Bode. Much appreciated Mark.

I was also thinking of maybe adding some images showing how I would prepare and separate the designs in photoshop before sending the files to my printer.
Enjoy!!
