So this is how I usually start a t-shirt design. A small sketch in my sketchbook. It's usually done pretty quick just to get the idea down.
Because I wanted to make this design look like a vintage horror poster I did some research and then did this mock up sketch full size. However, since the final illustration would be graphite I needed to use this version as a background and draw a cleaner version using this one as a guide on a light table.
Here is the final illustration done in graphite - no Photoshop.

I took a slew of macro pictures of erasers to use for the design. I used the paperclip to hold it in position so that I could easily Photoshop it out without casting a shadow.
