[quote=asdf]Here's the final result of my bootleg Brak. It's very obviously bootleg, because I didn't have all the colors I needed. I also had to do a lot of touching up.

I reckon i'm gonna make a new shirt soon.

holy_roller99 06-12-2006 11:24 AM

just got my Clit 45 patch on but i should work on my minor threat BUT i have no more white fabric paint and i need more colors. it is just so damn expensive but saves money in the long run

[QUOTE=good rats]
What did you use to cut it? The sharper the blade you use, the easier and more detailed you can make the stencil. Go to an art store and look for an X-acto blade.[/QUOTE]

Ive been using a thumb tack, poking holes in and tearing.

Im goin to color the back ground the colors of bolivia. will that ruin the look of having joe strummer on top??

Hahahaha. How crude.:p

ratsinthecity403 06-12-2006 02:22 PM

hmm...although this isn't entirey the place to ask, it's been a quesion on my mind.
When something says "$8.00ppd US" (or another dollar amount....) what exactly does ppd stand for and does it mean I have to include money for postage? I want to order something and don't know if $8 is enough...

coheneran 06-12-2006 02:53 PM

Definitely Post and Package. Maybe, Post and Package Due?

PPD means postage paid, it's included in the price thats shown, you don't have to pay shipping.

POINTLESS5448 06-12-2006 06:03 PM

Ghostfire3 06-12-2006 06:05 PM

haha, defiantly go get an x-acto blade

Brain Toad 06-12-2006 07:07 PM

I dont know about anywhere else, but I got a set of x-acto-like knives, three types of handles plus a bunch different types of blades for 99 cents at a dollar store.

mullets suk 06-12-2006 07:38 PM

Im really close to completeing my Joe Strummer shirt. Just one question though. when using the freezer paper, and using a multi-layer stencil, will the freezer paper stick to the first layer of paint??

O yea, two thing. Freezer paper, for those who havent tried is THE best way to stencil. Also the X-acto blade is great, alot better then using a thumb tack.

Brain Toad 06-12-2006 07:53 PM

I love x-actos. Except it hurts like a bitch when the blade goes under your fingernail.

They cut duct tape really well, my latest DIY project was making a new duct tape bookmark since I lost my other one.

[/QUOTE]
It won't stick if the first layer is completly dry..

mullets suk 06-13-2006 04:24 AM

What if i washed the shirt with the first layer completely dry. Then doesnt that make the shirt all clothy again?

SantaDuJuan 06-13-2006 12:17 PM

Guys, I'm thinking of making my DIY one word t-shirts.
Ex: [url]http://www.jinx.com/scripts/details.asp?affid=-1&productID=267[/url]

Does anyone know off the back what that font is?

mullets suk 06-13-2006 12:59 PM

im pretty sure thats the only thing on the shirt. nothing much to it.

Lol, it's "off the bat", not "back".:p

I think it's probably something like Block Type Write or something like that. I could be completely wrong though.

mullets suk 06-13-2006 02:30 PM

ok, so my Joe Strummer shirt went a little wrong. its not ruined just, unplanned. I got the front and the back mixed up. so everything that i wanted to be on the front is now on the back and a little bit to low.

Here’s my main problem. the front looks to blank. does any one know anything small that i can put over the front of the shirt over the heart. (like a crest)

Rise Me Up 06-13-2006 03:20 PM

You could put the Clash Star logo.

Ghostfire3 06-13-2006 04:00 PM

[QUOTE=mullets suk]o ok, i thought the world went mad or something. But really whats somethin i can put on the front.[/QUOTE]

[quote= rise me up]You could put the Clash Star logo.[/quote]

Yeah, that's a good idea. Something like this except bigger:

[url]http://www.angryyoungandpoor.com/store/pc/catalog/thumbs/ts/clashjefft.jpg[/url]

POINTLESS5448 06-13-2006 04:12 PM

just put "the clash". its simple, yet effective.

:angry:
Thank you.

mullets suk 06-13-2006 08:16 PM

any ways no one posted so. here is the finished shirt:

far away: [url]http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j73/h-drix/Picture001.jpg[/url]

close up: [url]http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j73/h-drix/Picture002.jpg[/url]

if i do put something on the front ill put the clash star with joe stummers DoB and DoD. cause that would be the easiest thing to do, i think.

coheneran 06-14-2006 04:35 AM

Hey, not bad, it came out pretty good.

Ghostfire3 06-14-2006 11:24 AM

Yeah, that looks pretty cool.

Rise Me Up 06-14-2006 02:26 PM

It looks really awesome, IMO.

holy_roller99 06-14-2006 02:58 PM

that looks pretty wicked.

SantaDuJuan 06-14-2006 03:13 PM

It's cute, cute the way it is.
Don't change it!

Way to make the page super-wide, Kevin.

POINTLESS5448 06-14-2006 03:53 PM

yeah dude that shirt is sick!
thats the back?

mullets suk 06-14-2006 04:04 PM

[QUOTE=POINTLESS5448]yeah dude that shirt is sick!

Thanks alot, and yes thats the back. Its a little far down, so theres a good sized blank at the top.

Maybe im just a little to hard on myself, i dunno.

SantaDuJuan 06-14-2006 04:18 PM

Nah, I think when anyone makes something they instantly notice what they did wrong.

Shelvey 06-14-2006 05:45 PM

Mhmm, that's one of the coolest I've seen done in a long time. I love it!

My friend just made a wicked Aquabats tshirt yesterday, and it's really trippy too.

POINTLESS5448 06-14-2006 09:11 PM

so. tonight has been quite the eventful night. remember that suprise i was talking about? its done and its awesome! its an op ivy shirt. but this isnt a regular op ivy shirt. i stepped it up on this one. from the front it looks like just a plain ol op ivy shirt:
[url]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d172/pointless5448/IMG_0511.jpg[/url]
but when you look at the back:
[url]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d172/pointless5448/IMG_0513.jpg[/url]
i printed out 9 pages of parts of it and put them together on a big posterboard and i cut it out today. i didnt think it would turn out this well but it did. im pretty excited.
heres a picture of the monster stencil (double entendre):
[url]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d172/pointless5448/IMG_0525.jpg[/url]
heres a pick of the back with the cd
[url]http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d172/pointless5448/IMG_0526.jpg[/url]
just thought it would make a cool picture.

SantaDuJuan 06-14-2006 09:23 PM

That's the coolest thing I've seen here.

Ghostfire3 06-14-2006 09:49 PM

Holy ****, that's awesome! Nice job :thumb:

POINTLESS5448 06-14-2006 09:51 PM
