BC2009: Pyg's fun with screen printing!

Post by Brennor » Thu Aug 27, 2009 11:16 pm

I'll let Pyg describe all the fun he had with preparing to do his first screenprinting job... and all the fun of blowing out the screens.

I'll start this off with a picture of a 1/2 done tshirt...

I don't know what the cost will be to obtain one of these, I just happened to be the one holding the camera. This thread will be updated with more info.

The shirts will be $5. There are 18 available. The DJs will have special shirts so Bren and Bitom don't have to worry about getting one.

Cash or check on site is the preferred method of payment.

Thanks

Here's the final product.

I won't be printing any more of these before the con... but when I get back from it, if anyone has a special request, I can do one up for a month following.

Apologies to Tet, I didn't manage to print one with both team logos, because I didn't have a screen made for "Left Sleeve Panda", which would mean that I'd have printed him with his arse facing forward. As much as that may prove appropriate... I felt it sucked, so I didn't do it.

Special thanks to my Heat Gun operators, and to a guy named Gary in Tampa, who taught me how to screenprint.

In other news... DJs... I'm running out of time, so here's your option...
Do you want any of the components you see here on your DJ shirt (Chest Logo on arm? this back-of shirt on the back of your shirt?).

I don't have time to doctor the art at this point (so, you'll have to wait until next year to harm a panda, a gazebo, a tree, and a gnome)... I tried like hell to work it up last night, and failed spectacularly. Who knew that art was so damned hard?

I plan to print in white, or yellow. You pick it, but pick the same things. :o On your black shirts, you have 2 sleeves and one back to place art on, and I can pretty much orient it however.

I'd like to have the normal back on the back of mine, if it is a choice between that and no art. Do the back before attempting the sleeves too. That way there is something else on the shirt at least. :)

I'd prefer white.
