A story that my picture of a Japanese became a T-shirt in the USA

I am a Japanese pro wrestling fan, the handle name is "man man". This sentence translates Japanese into English with google translation, so there may be unnatural places and mistakes, but please read with a generous mind.

Simply put, it is said that "I wrote the illustrations I painted with American wrestlers making T shirts", but I will briefly explain the overview. I am also quite surprised, but if you can say that SNS has something like this. Anyway, things start on July 7th this year.

On the 7 th of July, at the event "Wrestle Video Mania Grusome" in Shinjuku, we drank a lot of beer while watching the video of the wrestling

After the event on July 7th, I was advised by Mr. Taka Nakayama, I drew a picture of Gym Nasty Boys and uploaded it to SNS.
They sent a message to the event and the audience was delighted

Timmy Lou Retton shows a simple action such as a side change which utilized the gymnast 's career, and White Mike pours a guest by flying. And a variety of rich combination techniques. It is a fun team of two cheerful Americans.

-------------------------------------- 

 I drew a picture of Gym Nasty Boys and uploaded it to Twitter. Then I got a nice impression from Timmy Lou Retton.

 

Mrs.Rika Nakayama who is a wife of Mr.Taka Nakayama who saw this tweet got a message from Twitter and this was also nice. 

 
I remembered a lot.

That I came to see the "Wrestle Video Mania Gruesome" from meeting with Mr"BadGuy” Nabe.
And thanks to Mr. Taka Nakayama 's recommendation to draw a picture, I got to the American prowrestler Gym Nasty Boys.
For me it was a moving story.

 

  

 


After that, I was relaxed peacefully.
But then! Surprisingly, DM arrived from me by Timmy Lou Retton!

Hello!
We wanted to get your permission to use your drawnings for shirts.

I was too surprised!!

Although I understood the contents using google translation, the illustration uploaded to SNS has low resolution and high resolution data is necessary to print on T - shirt. I want to send data but I do not understand English.

I thought hard what I should do, I asked Mr. Taka Nakayama to consider the text and succeeded in sending data to Timmy Lou Retton by e-mail.


I was relieved, I found this tweet.

 Too Speedy!!

I was surprised that T - shirt was made
in about 2 days after sending data.


Immediately the next tweet!

 There are lots of color T-shirts!

Thus, one week after I drew an illustration in Japan, a strange incident occurred that my illustration was printed on a T - shirt and sold in the USA.

 


I think that this T - shirt will sell when they play the game, so please contact them if you want.

I also want to see their matches someday so I would like to buy a T - shirt at that time.

 

 

This is the explanation of the story. I have written long sentences. This happy incident cheered me up and raised my motivation to continue blogging and illustration from now on.

 

And I thank the following people.

Mr. Taka Nakayama and Mrs. Rika Nakayama who gave me the opportunity to draw a picture this time.

which is a member of "Wrestle Video Mania Grusome",Bad-Guy Nabe,DJ kyu-ko, Serachen-Haruyama , Sekai-no-PK, Tasogare-Bancho

Thanks to you we were able to experience a happy incident.

 

And finally, two of the Gym Nasty Boys. I am praying for the future success of Timmy Lou Retton and White Mike


Thank you for reading this long and awkward sentence. I am fortunate to readers. See you again.
