I’ve been fairly slack with posting stuff the past few weeks due to a nice job that popped up for Wired UK, so here’s one I’ve been meaning to put up ages ago when I received it through my letterbox.
This is my Limited Edition Tshirt I designed for Nanouniverse in Japan in association with Eyescream magazine who did I lovely little feature on me. Photos of which I’ll be posting in another post probably after I’ve finished this one.

Conspiracy for Good Tshirt

Posted in Collaboration, Fashion, Illustration, Pattern, Special Project, Tshirts, Type by Melvin Galapon on July 29, 2010


Afew months back I got asked to design a Tshirt for an interactive game called Conspiracy For Good, which I later found out was created by Tim Kring the creator of one of my favourite TV shows (Heroes) which has prematurely ended. CFG was set up as an alternative way of story telling making you part of the experience by putting on events to participate in as well as help raise money for a variety of charities. If you wanna buy this Tshirt it’s available here with a percentage of proceeds going to charity.
