Samarabellum Apparel

Samarabellum is the name of both my portfolio and my online shirt and print shop. I primarily design and sell graphic t-shirts that relate to my interests as an artist, nostalgic gamer and esports enthusiast.

Geimu Kyuubu

One of the most popular designs on Samarabellum, Geimu Kyuubu pays homage to my favorite old-school gaming console. Minimal with a slight hint of vaporwave inspiration (though not a vaporwave design), this shirt has a sister design where a similar style is applied to imagery of a disc of the game Super Smash Bros. Melee.

The Power That's Inside

Pokémon has been a highly influential force on both my interests and the development of my style as an artist, and references to it are a common theme in my personal artwork. The Power That's Inside was inspired by a desire to own a Pokémon-related t-shirt with a more mature edge -- and also, the opportunity to work in a fun pun.

Go Faster

Streetwear is another big interest of mine, and I wanted to show it in a design that married it to my love of gamer nostalgia. Go Faster shows the concept of a sneaker-head's re-imagining of an iconic character's footwear.

Down + B Tees

This is the first design ever created for Samarabellum. My original concept was a small online brand titled, "Down + B Tees," named after the button combinations one would need to input to trigger a special attack in the game Super Smash Bros. Melee. This design showcases the character Fox McCloud performing his down-special attack, Shine.
