Looking for artists, or good googlers
« on: October 26, 2016, 11:21:21 AM »
Hey all, I have an odd request. Some guys in my unit are going to make some custom hoodies in light of recent events, and I need some help picking the right image, either by google search or your artistic abilities.

In short, we're looking for a sweet picture of a car bomb exploding.



I'd love to see something like this, but I was unable to find a bigger version with a similar style.

Something like this might also work with some creative cropping, but in my mind it's rather boring.



The text will be added by our dudes, with something like 'straight to live' on front, a joke on how we usually train with a process of dry (no ammo), blank (using blanks), and live (shooting live rounds). On the opposite side, it will say 'It takes more than a VBIED (or car bomb) to kill us'.

I'd love to use you guys as a brainstorming center to try and find the right image. If you draw something up for us, I can't promise that you'll be cut in on any profits, but there might be a bottle of something sent your way when we return.

Thanks all

Maybe a screenshot from this video, the most shocking, well documented I've seen so far;  This twitter  link was posted on the other forum last week ; scroll down ,there's  another video  recorded in Syria down the page.
Come home, enjoy life, that country is cursed.

I saw the first video, but not the second. Pretty crazy what some determination and craziness can accomplish. That being said, it's not quite something that can be translated to a T-shirt design.
