sorry...no custom shirts or setups any more...because of how many screens im using now its VERY expensive to do a custom setup...maybe one day it will be alot easier when i have the budget to have TONS of shirts made in asia so i can do the kinda stuff u see at hot topic...but for now with the traditional screen printing method...no can do

these hoodies will be a thinner style so theyre easily fashionable in different seasons...the battskull hoodie will be a much thicker material so u have something super warm to wear in the winter

im also looking into doing beanies right now too...theyre not going to feature cars...just the battskull and the word mark (due to the fact i have to have the beanies embroidered...heavily detailed images like the cars dont turn out well at all when embroidered)

i like the blue hoodie...i'd be down for one.

Awesome... you're coming out with hoodies now. I <3 hoodies. Only thing is they are zip up hoodies.... I'm super picky about zip up hoodies... cuz they gotta be the kind where the fabric around the zip isn't super stiff, and super annoying when you are trying to be lazy / comfortable. Also don't like the kind which tend to curl up when they are unzipped.

Anyway... def bring this out before the skull bat, this is a good way to start the season

I like it, but it seems you jsut made the design(which is cool) and are slapping it in teh middle of the hoodie, hows that thing gonna look when its getting rocked open or half zipped ya know?

better image placement maybe even break the image up a bit and spread it out around the hoodie, Id love to get one of these if you could improve it. This just looks hastily done for a quick buck to me.

Small improvements and I am all over this.

im not gonna knock you for your opinion because it is yours...but i am not slapping these things together as you had bluntly put (or intended)...placement on hoodies is a bit different than shirts and im limited to one screen setup per hoodie...so all the designs have to be built around a small sized hoodie...which means the most ideal placement on a small that will work all the way up thru XXL is in the direct center so i can keep the car images large and fill up most of the blank area with design stuff

most people have this idea that printing on clothes is nothing more than sticking the shirt or cloth into some kind of special printer and hitting print like a wide format ink jet or desktop style printer...it is quite the opposite and there is a lot of different factors i have to keep in mind while im designing these things...unfortunatly i have to limit myself at times to certain constraints that screen printing puts on designing stuff

alot of shirts you guys see at the mall at like hot topic or volcom or any other major apparel outlet are printed in huge bulk by companies in asia and what not...and most of these companies have special manufacturing methods that allow for full coverage of the design on a tee or they use certain inks that allow for better color...unfortunatly with my current budget and order flow, i cannot do or offer the same kind of printing methods or output they do in their designs...im working on changing that one day...but for now i am confined to traditional screen printing methods that somewhat limit what i can do

believe me when i say this...i work VERY hard for you guys to bring you neat apparel that you would enjoy and also be proud of wearing because of your enjoyment of you car and the motorsports you participate in...the above design took me well over 16 hours to work up for you guys...creating the art for the cars isnt exactly an easy job to begin with...but then to actually work up a design AROUND the already existing cars which dont exactly follow fashion trends is another story altogether...but, please, dont think for one second that i throw these things together in a 2 hour period and plot to sell a few thousand of them just rip you guys off with shitty design work...i would much rather bust my hump making something that everyone can enjoy that takes me 15-20 hours to design instead of making a design that takes 2-3 hours that looks like shit...ive been an artist my entire life and i do not allow myself to release anything i deem poorly designed unto the world as it wouldnt be something i could stand back and learn from

[exitspeed]

I appreciate your work man.

Did not mean to come off as passive aggressive in that post, apologies if you took it that way.

thanks for the info about the process. good luck with the design, I am looking forward to seeing the physical product.

wasnt bitchin at yah or ne thing...just thought id give some insight into what goes on in my little world and try to help you guys understand some of the boundries i have to work with when designing these things for everone

[Z33dori]

awww i was hoping the Zip ups would be the thicker one....

[bloodie73]

I'd get one... or two even. ;]

[Fonix36]

i like this one way more then the last good job

[joshchewuhh]

i like ill take a black one once its made

there zip ups right

[allntrlundrgrnd]

you aint gotta struggle with a shovel to dig this

[dorkidori_s13]

im working with the screen printers at the moment...this may end up being a regular hoodie =( (because of problems with printing it right over the zipper area)

would anyone be heavily opposed to me making this into a normal pull over hoodie??? (that way i can offer em on thicker material for you mid west and back east guys who are gonna start freezin nuts soon)

im working VERY hard to have the details sorted and get a sale on for em BY monday morning

[ALEXTHESUS*PECT]

i like the blue one!

[LongGrain]

dont print over the zipper area!

make the logo smaller, and put it on like the lower side/back of the hoodie. that would be dope

[allntrlundrgrnd]

zip up>pullover

[240sxaddict]

leave em as is... and I'll buy one.

[Shmex]

Hey dude. Man those designs are siiick. Ill be either buying the balc and white or balc and red one. Probably black and white one.....how much you think of letting these go for?

[THE-D]

will buy the black one as long as its a zip up

[dorkidori_s13]

im trying to get these out for sale on here asap...but im having problems with my screen printers getting off their butts to make the particular board they need to have to print them

this might wind up being a normal hoodie simply cause im sick of waiting to bring this out to you guys (i know i wanna rock one asap too)...i know some of you really want it in zip up but with the problems im running into with my printers...it may be delayed for a few weeks...and i dont wanna wait that long to get u guys a hoodie (im already laggin WAY behind in winter wear....i wanted to have a hoodie for sale in the first week of october)

[240sxaddict]

dont budge. i'll wait for a zippered hoodie. do it once, do it right.

patience.
