Here's a nice weekend craft for all you olde shcool video game crafters. Lenore at Hacker Zen has made these awesome 8-bit Mario and Peach shirts using a few household sundries and acrylic fabric paint. The end result is really terrific and nothing wears better than something you made yourself. This way you won't be in danger of going to a party and finding three other people wearing that Pac-Man shirt you got from Target.
Lenore gives step by step instructions for you folks who are willing to put down the controller for a few hours and dedicate yourself to the project. But for god's sake DON'T USE PUFF PAINT.

wow Interesting, it looks the same as the 8 bit counterparts
all he needs to do is bowser and luigi now.
If you make those you should mix in some fabric medium with the paint and after its dry iron it for a bit with a sheet of paper on top to melt the paint tin to the fabric better. it'll make the shirt look nice longer.

I beg to differ....
Cool! If they just had Ganon from the original Zelda on a shirt like the one on the right, that would be so freaking awesome.
I'm pretty lazy and rather just buy one, but since I cant find one I may jus thave to do this.
Man, those look terrible.
I like the shirt on the left... theres something about it thats mezmerizing
someone make me a Megaman shirt....pronto!
Ugh... 8-bit shirts were so last gen...
I would make a blob shirt, maybe in the act of being fed.
Shiggity Shiggity Shwaa..!
