Avern Duel Tee Shirt

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

All right, I warned ya I'd be pimping this when the time was right.
Finally, the band has their webstore up.

My Monomachy illustration of the Avern Duel, for the band Orange Tulip Conspiracy.

Here's a much more detailed picture:

My intent was to make it look like a medieval woodcut. I don't go for today's photoshoppy SF illustration, so I'm trying to keep it old school for The Book of the New Sun illustrations I've been developing.  This is the first thing that is actually a finished work of art. Of course, I have my qualms about some aspects, but, hey, it is what it is, and it's printed...and available.

The band is really good. The album is strong and their live set is killer. Check out the mp3s and videos.  Those aware of Estradasphere or Secret Chiefs 3 should take note, because they share players.

anyway, there's my shameless plug.
