RATLORD

RATLORD

You've all heard of the German death metal band RATLORD, right? Though their merch was very limited, usually only available in size Large through second-hand sellers, I've uncovered a stash, nay, a bountiful trove of these rare gems. Though the entire band is said to have all choked to death on chicken bones, someone managed to secure exlcusive rights to print their shirts here in Austin in the late 80s. It's recommend you bury the shirt in a mound of dirt sprinkled with holy water/PBR to exorcise any poultrygeist that may still be attached to the relics. Detail - 1

Shirt design released at Rot Fest 3.

Rot Fest IV

Rot Fest IV

Poster design for what will very likely be the last Rot Fest, at least in its current form. Inspired by old Savage Sword of Conan comics and general dungeon skullduggery.

Rot Fest 3 Poster

Rot Fest 3 Poster

So every year for the last 3, I’ve thrown a big showcase in my yard for local artists to come and vend. We have tattoos, food, music, and a bunch of creative folk I respect hanging out for the day. This was the 2018 poster, which is an obvious nod to an old Jack Davis Tales from the Crypt cover. A humble homage to a true master. Detail - 1

Austin 4:20

Austin 4:20

OH HELL YEAH. My loving homage to the toughest SOB to ever enter the squared circle, Stone Cold Steve Austin. Also, weed.

Rot Fest #2
