About the Artist
jimiyo has 25 designs in the running. This is the 2nd winning design for jimiyo.
This is a compendium of approximately 3 or 4 years worth of artwork. I recently went through all my work, and took pieces out, and combined them with my latest pieces of personal stock vectors.
See if you can find Waldo.

I gotta tell you guys, I dont know if you are all artists, but recently
“Welcome Jimi,” he said, “to the Next Level.”
I’ve been busting my art hump for over 7 years now, and it seems things are starting to click, pay off, and take off.
Thank You.

There are so many skull designs out there, but this one is real creative. voted
Love your style – nice work. Not crazy about the subject matter (just not my taste) regardless the detail is awesome and the color choice is good.
yeah, this is well made and thought out, but there have been an obnoxious amount of skull designs lately.
i voted, but one small critique, everything fluidly blends except for the 2 flowers making up the eyes, I wish they didn’t have a bold outline on them
wow nice job. you should totally sub this to threadless and make a ton of loot.
I’m not much into skulls, but this is the exception. Very beautiful, unique, and original.
I’ve seen a lot of designs with stuff like this, but it’s great anyway, lot’s of details
wow! thanks for all the votes and comments.
i understand what you guys are saying about skulls.
i have some unhealthy fascination with them. actually the concept of death, mainly in regards to carpe diem, never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee, be merry, for tomorrow we die, etc etc. its not cause im emo. its more like, because we are going to die, i hope to live everyday like its my last, thats my obsession with death/skulls.
ryozilla critiqued that the eyes were too bold, and i think if i went back and made them less bold, no strokes, the fact that it resembles a skull would be less obvious. thus more likable by people tired of skulls.
you know what im tired of…
cute cartoony monsters.
cruddy leveled out photo reference tees.
CASSETTE tape tees
obvious clip art collage tees ie)victorian filigree overload, overlaid, with no real content
and totinos pizza. ive been eatin it for dinner for like 3 nights.
cheers everyone!
agreed that skulls are over used (even though im working on a design with a skull) but at least its more than skulls for the sake of skulls.
The thumbnail doesn’t do this one justice. I almost passed it by. Fantastic work!
Just how you said, It took you about 4 years, but you know what. Well done!!! Vote for you!
Is cool to see a lot good artist artworks.
wowhow :) i love grey shirts :) and especially this one … please print on sth. more colorful. want to have this shirt, but i already got 12378131237 billion grey shirts :)
FCKING AMAZING – Hey why don’t u put an embroidered detail on the sleeve? I think it would improve more your super-good-looking tee.
Regards
wow, I was leafing through the gallery, and the thumbnail jumped out at me “wow, that looks like jimiyo’s”
then I realized I’d voted for it already. X^)
Skulls are tired but this certainly isn’t. A very good spin on the skull trend.
I don’t like skulls, but if I’m ever going to buy a skull tee this sure is it!
I really love the individual drawings, but I’m honestly not a fan of the placement/shape, and it seems a bit similar to your first shirt that was printed. Very nice work though.
You are one very talented artist. Please get this shirt printed, hell I want all of your stuff printed. I would seriously buy every single one of your shirts right now! Great work and to the DBH team PLEASE PRINT THIS!!!!
i think waldo was a scheme to get us to look closely at it…and for good reason
the amount of detail is insane! nice work
i dont understand why this shirt hasn’t won yet. This is shirt is off the hook. it has the votes, it has the looks, what’s going on?!?! hahaha
thanks for all the votes guys.
COME ON 200!
it would be cool if this could get to 300, and then someone could post
THIS ISSSSSSSSSSS SPAAAAAAAAAAAARTTAAAAAAA post.
This is a really amazing design. I’ve got Revelations, and to date it’s my favourite DBH tee. Glad to hear that things are finally kicking off for you!
Here’s one more vote for SPAAARTTTAAAAAAAAAAAA!
print this t-shirt please. :)
just one things, the outline of flower on the eyes it’s a lil bit weird i think. IMHO. :)
w0000000000t this is SUCH a beautiful design. omg it’s fantastic. This has got to be the greatest design i have ever seen on a t shirt, no joke. I will buy one FOR SURE. I can’t wait!
Congrats on the win. This design had my vote. Love the details. It was only a matter of time. However, I wish this had been printed on the original grey.
Yeah, finally! handsforeyes knows the truth, again, this’ll be on the top of the list, congrats, great shirt again :)
yeah I notice DBH sometimes avoids printing on grey. It’s disappointing. But still, nice one!
They should use this male model more, he’s edgier and more brooding. Kinda brings out the attitude. He’s good for this design, he’ll help you sell more!!
Congrats, it was about time! go go pro-contest winner.
I made a resolution too: i want to win at least one contest this year! must …win…:)
I am ambivalent to this one. Some parts (birds) of the melange I truly like and other parts (skulls) I don’t care for. I admit that the design has an effect on me.
Thanks for all the props guys and gals. Yeah… FINALLY PRINTED!
I will bring you more, awesome audience, I am your jester! I just submitted a new one, that I think is a level up from this one, cause it combines linework WITH soopercolor. Keep an eye out!
I wish there was a way to get shirts in different colors. I love your work, but white just isnt my color :(
one of the best works i’ve seen on this site!
agree with the tattoo comment, this should look amazing on ink
Just like in movies, sequel isnt as good as Revelations.. Probably because it dosent have color :(
But illustration is uber great, as usually
The design rocks, however, the print itself faded quickly in spite of my careful washing. Also, the shirt itself has developed an odd twist around the torso. Unfortunately this is one of many DBH shirts that I’ve purchased that exhibits similar characteristics.






nice work, would have to be very large on the shirt to see the detail
