Kyle Webster for The Hundreds (a lackluster collabo)

Do you remember the Original Design Gangsta? It was thanks to this that New York-based Kyle T. Webster made his name known in the design world. He was recently approached by The Hundreds to design three tees, which depict caricatures of some of their favourite artists including Morissey, Björk and The Pixies. The end result isn’t bad at all, but I don’t think this type of illustration belongs on tees (it just doesn’t look right), so it won’t get much laudation from us. It reminds me of tees your aunt buys you as a souvenir from some gift shop for $5. I would, however, be curious as to how much the good Mr. Webster was paid for his three doodles, seeing as there has been almost a constant demand from pretty much every big US publication out there, not to mention his other projects including an overwhelming amount of commercial work. mash rating: 4/10
