🎨 Your shirt will not be "perfect", but it will be yours

I'm calling this an art shirt, and I can tell you I am a messy artist, and this is a messy print. I don't wait for any of it to dry, I just put my headphones on and go for it, printing where I feel at the time, holding up, turning, getting the full wrap around print. Completely unplanned and in the moment. Finished with a front centre print. As such, you can expect finger marks, smears, ghost prints from screen contact and other possible "imperfections". This is all part of what gives an ElRat Designs shirt, the human, hand printed feel.... because it is human and hand printed. This isn't fake mass produced "art", this is your shirt, made especially for you, by me. The one in the picture is mine, and it's representative of the shirt I aim to make for you. If you are looking for perfection, ElRat Designs is not for you. But if you want something real, something made by human hands with all the beautiful imperfections that brings, then Planet ElRat is the place to be.

🖤 Real Art Shirts, Not Mass Production

These aren't just t-shirts with designs on them - they're art shirts. Each one is different because each one is made by hand, by me, with Hersh in my ears. The University logo gets the messy treatment it deserves - raw, authentic, and completely unique to you.

📏 Music is for everyone, and merch should be too (S-6XL Available)

At ElRat Designs, I want as many people as possible to be able to support the things they love. That's why we print every size up to 6XL - because every one deserves to wear their art.

✊I am a Messy Artist

These shirts are Messy Prints, and I am a messy artist, there will be inky fingerprints, smears, ghost prints among the likely many "Imperfections", there is no careful drying or positioning, I put my headphones on and just go at it, I print where I feel it needs at the time, turning and holding it up, and turning, adjusting, getting the full wrap around effect, a genuine all over Messy art print. Not planned, not perfect, but made especially for you, by me.

ElRat Designs is an island in an ocean of mass produced fakery and perfection, where all that seems to matter is how much product, that nobody really wants, you can shift. ElRat Designs offers the antidote, I make art that is human. If you are looking for perfection, ElRat Designs is not for you, but if you are looking for something different, for a place where the human element of art still matters, then step into Planet ElRat, and be welcomed with open arms.
