昔からD.I.Y.の人生やねん。（DIYとは、英語の略語：Do It Yourself – 自身で作ろう）
最近、また趣味が増えてもうて、シルクスクリーンを勉強しだした。自分で刷った新作品はこれや！

…でも切り取るのは面倒臭そうやわぁ！！

つや有のインクとつや無の塩ビシートはポイントや！あまり写真に写られない味やから残念やけど。

もちろん、次のデザインを考えているよ。楽しみにしてぇぇ！

DIY ethic has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. As if I didn’t have enough hobbies I decided it was time to fulfill a lifelong dream and begin to study printing in earnest – beginning with silk screening. If you liked the bunny girl art prints, then feast your eyes on these, my latest abominations.

…cutting these out should be a true exercise in patience.

The real charm of these babies is the super shiney oil-like look of the raised ink on the non-shiney matte surface. Pure printing press pr0n! Too bad the photo doesn’t do it justice. I’ll be slicing these out over the next week – come and get em!

Of course I’m already planning the next design! I can sleep when I die. Stay tuned!

アメリカのステッカーガイから頼んだ新シールが届いたー！２種類もある、今回。（白黒反転のヤツ）こういうシルクスクリーンで作っているステッカーを印刷やっている会社は日本には一件もないって知っていた！？大分探したが何もでてこない。あればいいのにな。国際配達はめっちゃ高いわ！
New stickers from the one and only Sticker Guy! Did you know that NO ONE in Japan does custom printed vinyl silk-screened stickers? The shipping on these things alone was enough to kill an elephant.

欲しい？無料やけど遊びにきてくれないと！待っているでぇ！
Do you desire this rubbery, sticky delight? Deyz free, but chew gots ta come here n’ fin’ me!

（今日のモデルさんたちは国際カップル、セブとクミ！）

千社札をデザインするのはめっちゃ好きやねん！
Love designing senjafuda. Now all I need is my own printing setup.

Two delightfully drunk demons have whipped up this collaboration shirt featuring… two delightfully drunk demons!

酔っぱらい二人鬼がこの「酔っぱらい二人鬼」コラボレーションデザインが上手く描いた！

Kozuru in Kujo and Hori-Ken from the ol’ Bunshin Club are the artists behind the design! (I think they go for like 3800yen) If you’re not familiar with the phenomenal designs Kozuru has done through Empty Graphix or his tattoo work than you owe it to yourself to check it out!

西九条のHORIKOZURUさんと分身倶楽部のHORIKENの合作！EMPTY GRAPHIXやWOODSPEAKERに詳しくない人、是非、調べて欲しい！！

It’s a beautiful 6 color print and the picture doesn’t do it justice, but you can find better images on their respective websites.

この画像は少し荒いけどEMPTYのHPにもっと綺麗やつがある。

っつか、関係ないけど上のCHAD（チャッド）はFUTURAMAの「未来のFRY」とそっくりやぁ！
Also, Chad looks like future fry from “Bender’s Big Score“

できたぁぁぁぁ〜〜！おまたせぇぇ！大分時間かかったわ、これ。すみません！噂通りのコラボTシャツ。弟子師匠合作！！師匠は蛇、弟子は薔薇と蜘蛛の巣。

堀江店限定。数は少ないから欲しい人はやく見に来てぇ！

Finally, the fabled Horie shirts are done and out! What should have taken days took months… (from now on, no more middlemen – really. I mean it this time. You all heard me say it and google has archived it.) Anyway, our first master/apprentice combo design. Wataru did the snake, and I did the flowers, vines, bugs, etc.

This thing is only at Horie and there’s not many of them – come by and grab it while you can!

Got my hands on it today. Congratulations Shige – you deserve it brother!!
今朝、手に入ったぁ！！しげさん、御目出度う御座います！

(This volume is amazing. Not only because of the quality of it’s content but also because it’s simply a beautiful tome – from the layout to the nomenclature… including the new book smellTM! Beautifully done. If you’re reading this and didn’t reserve your copy I’d get on it – this is a limited edition – especially in Japan. )
（本当に素敵な画集や。内容だけじゃなくて、「SHIGE」自体もほんまに美しく出来上がっている。もちろん、僕の大好きな新品本の香りまで！頼まなかった人、本当におすすめやで！限定発売なんではよせんときえてまぅでぇ！）
