Hey, I got a new idea...

Picture if you will, a gathering of browncoats (that is to say, US). Add to that a smattering of fireflies floating around and about. The crew is with us - Mal, Zoe, Book, everybody. Now imagine Serenity sitting on top of a hill, ready fire up and take us away from all this.

This is a T-shirt idea that recently blossomed in the Tagline thanks to Sarahetc, Maniac, StillShiny and Maguinan. The detail work is in progress.

IF YOU have a suggestion or an interest in purchasing "Glow Fireflies...Glow" please post it here or send me an e-mail. The sketch will appear on my artist page - same one as the Firefly Artwork series.

NOVEMBER UPDATE: Contrary to what ya'll might be thinking about now, this has not fallen by the wayside - somebody is actually paying me to draw for them (I've upgraded to not-so-starving artist) and I need to produce the first of four pieces. I promise this will happen, just not as quickly as I hoped.

Meantime, if anyone wants to actually appear on the shirt, send me a picture and I'll see what I can do.

Oh, YES! I would happily pay and wear that proudly. I can't seem to get to any shindigs so I don't have any Shindig shirts. This site is my Verse away from home. I could email you a dig pic or two I assume you mostly need headshots. Please, Please make this work. I've seen so many good ideas started here, that just fell by the wayside. I will halp in anyway I can.

Oh wow, you could use the Glow Little Fireflies Glow in a Firefly type font on the back. I want I want. Please keep me "posted" I'll be away from my desk for the next few weeks but I'll check in at home when I can. Gorram 56K!!!

That brings up a question - does anyone have access to a Firefly type font or dare I ask, the actual Firefly font?

I already have a local T-shirt company in mind. They did some T-shirt work for the sci-fi convention I'm enslaved to, three of which were from my designs.

You might try this question in the tag log. Sorry, I don't.

I did find a place where someone made a firefly font and put it up for your downloading pleasure. Thing is, its the old style, the style that was dropped before the series started. I dont think it would suit well.

heck, as an idea man, you'd get one of the first ones off the press, along with StillShiny, Sarah and Mag.
