well it's a step up from Hiney Art

Take Hiney's name out of your mouth.

The embroidery is really cool

That must be an age thing then.....

I've just fixed the posts already in this thread, although I couldn't find one image on IG from hiroki.38 - https://www.instagram.com/hiroki.38/

The Japanese don't think of embroidery in the way the British do. It is an art form.

When it involves Mitoma it certainly is!

As and when their artwork appears here https://www.redbubble.com/shop/mitoma+clothing I have next season's lucky t-shirt sorted.
(Assuming it's still relevant)

Brilliant stuff. I do actually love the embroidery, just funny and quirky and top notch quality.

Funny looking seagull, that

Perfect.

Disappointed it took that long to be honest.

 

[The Fifth Column]

Pretty accurate this one

Fab! Looking forward to the Hentai porn versions - without Brighton's very own Katie whatsername, one hopes!

Lucinda maybe .............................?

The hiroki.38 one is superb! I love all this quirky stuff that is appearing now the Albion is getting more worldwide coverage. Except maybe the Mitoma Cats, that's just plain weird

Totally agree - I'd love a t-shirt with that on!!

The three legs feature is quite creative though, no?

Do we still do Hiney art? I haven't seen any in an age, barring the above.

It's not a seagull actually. It's a Japanese traditional mythical crow called Yatagarasu and it's the mascot / symbol of JFA = Japan Football Association. So, both Japanese national team and Brighton have bird mascots

Yatagarasu : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yatagarasu

Japanese national football team is called "Samurai Blue". Mitoma is wearing the national team uniform in this picture and you see the mythical crow on his chest.
