This year’s Halloween mini-project has been going at a pretty leisurely pace. I was initially going to do something completely different, but I did not really want to make it a limited seasonal item. And then I remembered that “this” is actually something that was suggested to me a few times.

I wasn’t very inspired by the dirty/sweaty aspect initially, but I feel that the chunky drips coming from the collar really sell the idea. The text? I’m not entirely sure of. But I do feel that something like that is needed to really build the “story” this item should tell.

Does it need a story? In my mind, everything should, ideally. I feel that there might be something much better that I haven’t thought of yet, but I’m trying to avoid specific names or numbers.

Oh… I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to add a Chinese or Japanese option if the characters fit well enough… And maybe a color or two?
