How did I turn EROL into a T-shirt super star?<\/p>

I took a photo of him on my mantelpiece. <\/p>

Then I retouched in a background of retro wallpaper, and changed the colour of the mantelpiece to orange for the full retro look. I then added in a palm tree I had drawn earlier and created the flamingo baby 2d type in the glorious kitsch pink. <\/p>

I then framed the image with a retro Polaroid frame - Et voila!! The finished piece!<\/p>

He\u2019s now back, firmly situated on the dash of the Hymer, his little wings flapping. Plastic, kitsch and to us, and maybe to you, highly entertaining. <\/p>

You may be asking me why he made it onto a Tshirt? Well - you have to celebrate the little things.<\/p>
