One Piece Panson Works T-Shirt - Import Preorder

«©NCSX» Panson Works' renditions of pop culture icons follow some simple artistic guidelines which NCS lists below:

» Keep it simple - the characters are built from basic shapes such as circles, squares, rectangles, and ovals which haven't been adulterated by unnecessary flair or artsy-fartsy noise.
» Beady eyes - You won't see any pupils, just black pools of darkness that can be shaped to convey blank emotion, deviousness, anger, etc.

The design principles described above are used to create two One Piece T-shirts (free-size) which feature characters from One Piece in all of their simple, beady-eyed glory. Preorders ship in Oct 09.
