Any graphic artists present?

I'm in the mood to do another Superhawk shirt but I do not have the means to create the necessary artwork. If there is anyone who thinks they can help, lmk. I'd like to hear from ya.

Here are the art guidelines my printer requires:

Our church has a few graphic artists that help us out now and then... What did you need/have in mind?

Yes, new shirts! I am in need. My last couple T's now have holes in them from wearing to work (fabricating, sharp stuff, etc.). I need new ones to slide into my weekly T-shirt rotation.

I, and quite a few others in several states around here, really liked the see through, or X-Ray engine shirt. It was a hit.

@ this point I first wanted to secure someone who could work with those specs. Then 2 or 3 of us can start bouncing ideas back and forth.

The last shirt will be hard to top. Ian has much talent and it came to fruition with that design. I kinda wanted to see an old school racing style shirt, but the opinion of others carries the most weight. Something like this:

So you're looking for someone to design the art, or just someone to take the finished art and swt it up to the shirt company's specs?

Wolverine, thank you for initiating a new shirt, I like old school too.

Anybody else besides me maybe voting for a new hat too?

I'm really hoping to find someone who is a forum member who can do this. I want to design with them and maybe one other person. Typically we'd bounce ideas back and forth and then find a piece of art to start on. Then that person can work on variations and take creative ideas from the others involved. One of the main reasons I'd like to have someone from here... I always paid Ian in swag. I don't get rich by any stretch of the imagination doing this. And Ian did spend a bit of time on them.

So lets say we went with the above... I/we would find a good photo to start. Has to be high res. though.

Then it could be "tooned". And this is just an example of how we'd go about starting.

I can do artwork

Spec and costs from printers depend on what you want the finished results to look like i.e. if its one or two or 4 (full colour) print - Is it going to be screenprinted or transferred on? On what colour shirts? Is design intended for a black/dark coloured t-shirts or white/light coloured t-shirts - as artwork will be different for each.

Bit busy at mo but I possibly can squeeze something in.

Thanks Wicky!
I have a friend that owns a screen printing business. Multi color is no problem, I don't want that to affect design. A cool shirt is the priority. Just in case you haven't seen what we have done in the past I'll post some images:





And the white T version







This time I only want one shirt. No dark or light option and one graphic only. Since the last one was a black shirt, I think a light one would be the way to go. Either gray or white.

My friend that owns the business just got a full auto 8 unit press. He no longer has to pull ink by hand.

Not sure if you'll be able to see that vid.

Yellow is a light color.

Gray please. It doesn't show dirt as much as white.

Are these shirts still available? I'm interested...
