Mechanized Buddha t-shirt design

I'm awfully fond of this proposed t-shirt design from Design By Humans's Reyyy, entitled "Mecha Naga Buddha." The artist sez, "It's our friend Buddha, mechanized, surrounded by the seven-headed Naga serpent." Link (via Warren Ellis)

He doesn't look mechanized to me so much as stylized. Looks like body paint, masks, all sorts of tribal art.

Handsome design.

Reyyy is aka Corey Lewis, the author of the slam-bang manga series Sharknife as well as a number of one-shot comics and a webcomic series that's part of DC's Zuda online initiative. I dig him immensely.

I'm a big Reyyy fan. His live journal has crazy awesome art all the time.

Quite a creative incarnation of the Buddha! There is a full-shirt view on Reyy's site; impressive. I'm a fan of Buddha-themed clothing, having created a pair of Buddha sneakers myself :)
