Knocked out this skeleton skateboarder for my nephew last halloween, hes 12 and wanted something skate punk on his birthday hoodie. So I drew the bones crouched low on the deck mid trick, both arms stretched out for balance, board angled forward with flames trailing off the back.
And the skull face does most of the heavy lifting. Hes snarling with teeth bared, eye sockets hollow, the whole expression reads aggressive but in a punk sticker way rather than horror. Ivory bones across the whole body with thick black outlines that keep him readable from across the skate park.
Board is wooden brown with black grip tape on top and bright orange red flames licking out behind the rear truck. Yellow background highlights peek through behind the flames to give them lift. The trucks underneath are dark grey, wheels small dark circles.
Aswell as halloween this one sells year round for skate brands and band merch. Ive had alot of customer orders for it on skate shop tee restocks. One regular emailed me about putting the 7.75-inch build on a backpack flap, the proportions worked perfectly across the panel.
5 sizes from 4.11 inches up to 7.75 inches wide. Stitch count climbs from 35,446 to 80,377 for the largest, so this is heavy fabric only. Five colour changes total, fewer than you might guess for a piece with this much detail.
Best fabric is heavy cotton or twill, ideally black charcoal or olive so the bones glow. Skip stretch fabric for the larger sizes, the dense fills will warp jersey. Back tee fabric with cutaway or sweatshirt fabric. Holler at me through the message form if any file fails to download and ill send a fresh copy.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
