Resistance was Futile. I have finally T-shirtillated

Post by Martin Thoene » Mon Jan 01, 2007 8:37 pm

Ok, ya got me! I have finally given in and started a new T-shirt design.

I might actually have it finished tomorrow. I might post a partial picture teaser later too :twisted:

Heehee!

Expect something very different from the last one. This is being designed for a transfer, so it's far more complex color-wize than the other.

Wait, wait, wait..................

Here's a teeny teaser:

This is only a small part of the top half of the design. It's acrylics and ink.

much more flattering for people like Emma, but possibly not for some hefalumps :lol:

how much you selling them for? and are they signed by the artist? that teaser is very teasing and very good.

Questions, questions, questions. Hold on folks, as I write the artwork is only around 2/3rds finished.

I have to first get prices and possibilitys of actual styles from several T-shirt printers. As regards T's I will only accept Haynes Beefy-T's or Lee as I've found them super well-wearing. None of that Portuguese-made crap that ends up as a boob-tube the first time you wash it :wink:

I have to get shipping and packaging prices so I can come up with a price to you guys.

I'll probably sign the artwork. I'll see what sizes are available, hopefully weeny to marquee sizes :D

well get some super strength coffee down you and get painting, my man, we are all impatient wotsits around here!

now is marque size bigger than darts player size? do the comapnies you like do them suitably wide? some sizes are designed for very skinny people, and an L is just longer than a M, and an XXXL is for people about 7 foot tall with no boobs and just gristle

maybe you should sell the t-shirts in sizes from sid to clown loach

Hahahah! I don't think so. I used to be a skinny size 10 but am a 14 these days! :shock: Comes from spending too much time lazing about in front of the loach tanks. :lol:

Looking forward to the finished product, Martin. Then after that you can crack on with the fridge magnets!........*swiflty runs and hides*
