Just finished this portrait of Magoo, painted in a pop art style.
Looking to make this into a T-shirt design to help raise money for Danny's
van fund, to buy him a specially adapted handicaped van to give him more
mobility.

Let me know what you think of it and if you would be interested in a T-shirt, size etc. Target price will be £18 -£20 pounds, approx $25 US Dollars.
Sizes will be M, L, X/L and XX/L size, heavy duty Gildan or Haynes Beefy Tee quality.

Following feedback from fans, were going to get this design printed on front on tee, then on the back we will print CHANDLER across shoulders as per race jersey with a list of Danny's accomplishments underneath where his number would be.
It will cost a few more dollars but we want to make them a real collectors item, so you can show your support for a true Motocross legend!
Any more suggestions greatly appreciated and thanks to everyone who has pledged to buy one!

Cheers for making this a sticky post.
The shirt will be a sand colour, approx the colour of Danny's face/peak.
Same colour as the Husky and Maico tees on www.robkinsey.com

Good choice on the color Rob, i was thinking the image wouldnt "pop" well on a black shirt, and would look sorta out of place on a white shirt.

What about putting "MAGOO" in big bold letters across the bottom of the logo?

I hope to get stock sorted and ready for weekend of 13/14th Feb for a show here in UK, plus you can tell your loved one what you really want for Valentines Day, apart from the obvious!

Rob, in addition to picking up one for myself...I'd like to arrange something where I'd also buy one as a prize for the weekly vital sx contest. The availability date for the t-shirt would fall in line with whatever sx race falls around that time and then rather than sending me the shirt, you send it to the winner for the week?

I would buy one too with hopes of someday getting it autographed.

Just got this visual back from printers, looking good.
On back of shirt will list Danny's championships and major victories.

1981 Trans-USA 500cc Support Series Champion
1982 US 500cc Grand Prix Carlsbad
1982 ABC Superbikers Champion Carlsbad raceway
1982 Trophee des Nations winner Gaildorf
1982 Motocross des Nations winner Wohlen
1985 French 500cc Grand Prix Thouars

Can anyone remember any race I'm missing?

let me know what you think of the design, revisions etc?

Not to nit pick, but how about having the name and number in blue, like the back of his classic jersey?

Will you be attempting to fit his name/number AND his win stats on the back?

If so, and it get's too cluttered on the back, I'd vote to have just his win stats on the back.

Thanks for all the order pledges. Will check into what other colours we can do shirt in.
Availability will now be first week's in March. The screen printers I use, do all the pit lane access bibs for press, marshalls, VIP etc for Formula 1 championship. With 3 GP's in March all their production capacity is booked up solid in February but don't worry they will be worth waiting for!
Looked into using another company but couldn't guarantee quality I know my suppliers will deliver.
Made a few tweeks and I will post up the final design proof from my designer in a few days.

Rob - very nice looking shirt. What a great project. I'll be in for 1 or 2 for sure.

BTW - I just talked with Danny this morning and he can certainly use all of your support (moral, financial, etc.). He just got released from the Hospital again and is getting away down to Baja for a few days with Timmy Morton and the crew from BajaBound. We (RiderDown.org) are continuing to do what we can in the way of support but this loveable legend needs more help now!
