A.mar.illo’s back with his 3rd print here at Tilteed. But this time, Troy Bot is a limited edition print that will only be available for the next 3 days. Grab one before it’s gone!
This is a two color print on a black American Apparel t-shirt.
TILTEED CURATOR: JadenKale
Curator’s Statement:
A horse is a horse. Of course! Of course! Except when you see a.mar.illo’s Troybot horse!!! In which case, you should really buy the horse and not think twice about it! The metallic ‘Trojan’ equus won me over long ago with its gorgeous patina and vast amount of detail. I can only imagine the reaction if this had rolled up instead of its wooden sister years ago. However, I’m very happy to see it roll in for a 3 day lay-over with Tilteed.
TILTEED: a.mar.illo
A.mar.illo’s two previous prints at Tilteed were both winners of our design contest and still available in the catalog. Machine Art is a 3 color print on creme and Expansion is a 1 color print on black.
What was the design process behind this piece?
It belongs to a series of designs “strange huge metal things in space” I had to draw a normal horse first of course and then give it a “skin” made of steel.
Tell us a little bit more about yourself.
I was born and raised in Germany. I’ve worked as a freelance illustrator for more than a decade, which allows me to make a living from my passion for drawing. In 2004, I made a new home in Barcelona, Spain, where I currently reside. I would describe my works as creatures of my mind, born of their own aesthetics. To create my designs I use pen and ink, scanner and Mac.
You have so many amazing designs. Where do you find the bulk of your inspiration?
Thanks! Inspiration can be found in anything. Unfortunately it never comes when you need it most, haha:) But some input always helps: Books, Galleries, Design Websites or just having a walk…
How many t-shirts do you own and what is your favorite piece to wear?
60 printed t-shirts more or less, my favorite tee to wear changes constantly. I really like this one from Sweden for example:

What do you do to kick back and relax?
Bicycle riding, going to the beach or just watching TV are things I´d consider relaxing…
Do you have any links you’d like to tell others to check out?
http://www.flyapart.org/ is a European based Art and Illustration collective started in the UK in 2006. As well as being a place for each member to showcase their own work, we also aim to bring you a number of collaborative and themed projects in the near future.
What piece of advice would you give to future designers?
I only can give the same piece of advice I need myself: Remind yourself not to trust too much in your digital skills only, keep drawing, insist in clients paying upfront payments or “kill-fees”, hell, I always forget those things…

I love Expansion, but they’re all stellar.
Congrats a.mar.illo! May this do well over the next few days :D
Awesome work Sven. Hope this sells like hot cakes.
As a big fan of the Iliad and a.mar.illo, this rocks my socks!
I love this design on white - it looks like it’s glowing. But it looks great on the black tee, too!
Excellent, love the use of the negative space within tge horse, its kinda like my design, using alot of the shirt to come through the design. Well planned and excellent print!
=D
Looks great on Black. I’ve been really getting into this style lately.
Troy Bot is deceptively awesome
This is fantastic! I love the size of the print and the color combo
Expansion is a clear favourite for me (not wanting to take anything away from the other two). Think I will post it as the featured Tshirt on my new site, http://www.cooltshirtdesign.co.uk
Man this shirt is incredible! That took work and a steady hand. Great colors, too. Your style is awesome, a.mar.illo.
My favorite a.mar.illo design is also Expansion, which I never did buy yet. At first viewing, I was initially repelled by its in-your-face illustration of how mankind has gone berserk on this planet. Then I studied it and learned to appreciate the detail of the design. Congrats on this printing!
Twilshire, you should pick both up now! You can get $4 off each shirt you purchase (if you purchase 2 or more) with the coupon “FEB50”
So glad to have discovered tilteed
Machine art is pretty sick, but I love the colors of Troy Bot… awesome.
Thank you kindly, JadenKale, for the hot tip. I was unaware of that bargain. Payday Is On The Way!
Just remember, Twilshire, February 18th 11:59am PST is the last time to get this tee!
Great work as usual. I’ve already gotten Machine Art and a couple more of amarillo’s designs from other sites.
Congrats there, great work!
My favourite’s Machine Art, the earthy palette really appeals to me and it looks absolutely great on the shirt. Well this shirt too, and just about all his other designs.
As usual, i love it. would love to have it as i already got both machine art and expansion

I’d have to say this newest one Troy Bot is my favorite of the three you have here. I just love the colors and great use of the space on the shirt!
Man, is a.mar.illo capable of not producing awesome? Great pick, Jaden!
This is a good looking t-shirt. I would be really torn between this one and expansion if I were forced to pick a favorite out of the three.
I was forced to buy this cos I liked it so much. Something about the design and the green on black was irresistable.
I must say Expansion is my personal favorite of his shirts, as a whole. That’s probably just my aversion to black shirts kicking in though.
We agree, it’s tough to choose a clear cut winner when you look at all of a.mar.illo’s work.
Thanks for the comments everybody! The free shirt goes to Lily1029 - we’ll be in contact!
Stay tuned as we’re going to be giving out more and more shirts over the next few weeks. Keep tabs on our Facebook Page or our Twitter Feed.
