The Countdown to Halloween Blog was established in 2009 on Blogspot.com as a way for different blog sites to share spooky season content. This year, for the first time, there’s a t-shirt for it! I designed this shirt for the 2022 season and it’s available now at http://svi.link/cth2022 – all proceeds from the sale of this design (on a variety of shirts and other fun stuff!) will go to Haunters Against Hate! 

Join the countdown at CountdownToHalloween.net.

And hey, please spread the word!

In 2011 I created one of the first designs I ever had printed on a shirt myself, “I Like It Spooky”.

Recently somebody sent yet another screenshot of an ad featuring that design, from yet another company pirating my work. So I figured “Hell with’em – I’ll make a better one”. This is the 2nd version of this design, now available in ALL of my web stores:

Many years ago I did a SPOOKY 4 LIFE t-shirt design that just never quite printed the way I envisioned it. Years later, I updated that design, only to watch it get endlessly pirated thanks in part to its very simple, 2-color artwork.

Recently somebody sent yet another screenshot of an ad featuring that second version of the design, from yet another company pirating my work. So I figured “Hell with’em – I’ll make a better one”. This is the 3rd version of this design, now available in ALL of my web stores:

• https://www.shopsinister.com
• http://chadsavage.redbubble.com/
• http://tee.pub/lic/gpWWdePuVYk
• https://savagesinister.threadless.com/

This Halloween season I’ll be updating a couple of my other older designs. 

Also, this design features the 31st Sinister Font “Grim Creeper” to be released closer to Halloween!

SPOOKY 4 LIFE YA’LL!

In October of 2021, Retro Supply Co. (maker of vintage-inspired digital brushes, textures, etc.) sponsored the #FrightFall drawing challenge. Chad Savage took the opportunity to create images heavily inspired by classic/vintage Halloween art and decorations, but with his own twists (particularly with regard to color).

These die cut decorations come directly from those drawings, in the “spirit” of classic Halloween decorations of yesteryear.

Decorations are 10″ and printed on sturdy paper stock. Only 25 sets made.
