So this isn't as much a "reconstruction" as a "makeover".

See, I bought this hoodie yesterday. I love the fabric it's made with, it's got these cute little skulls all over it. And it was $5 dammit. The graphic on it was vaguely wearable even, but I knew I could not bring myself to wear a hoodie saying "rock and Roll Queen". It's not that I'm not a rock and roll queen per say, it's just, well, Disco Stu doesn't advertise and I'd rather not either.

Since that whole deal was a big sewn-on patch, I took it right off. I would have been happy with the hoodie plain with the patterned fabric, but alas we had some screenprinted bits under the patch:

So I got to thinking of a picture that would incorporate the shapes and go with the skull theme. Voila:

And an action shot for no reason:

I free-handed the branches, and then drew a bird skelly and made a stencil and stencilled it on. Woot, a productive day! And I actually like this and kinda wanna go buy a million more hoodies and make all kinds of them! :D
