I've been doing graphics for years and started doing t-shirt designs only in the last 2weeks. In the last two weeks, I've created shirt designs for my hobby at cafepress.com/daikonz
I have several "styles" that I can work my magic with. Much of what I do starts with taking a pencil to a notepad and draw it out. Then I'll scan and bring it into Adobe PS and Illy. I'll take my line drawing and turn it into a vector. From there I'll manipulate it in Photoshop where the coloring is done. The final product is a PSD file at 200-300dpi that you can print to transfer paper or use at your own t-shirt fulfillment shop like CafePress or wherever. My designs are transparent meaning where there is no art, there will be no ink on the design.
I have a few samples online at the website above of what I've done lately for t-shirts (adding all the time now because I find this exciting). If your ideas and my style look like they can work together.. let me know: scott71@gmail.com
If you want to jump start our relationship, just send your ideas to me with colors, text, and if you have specific ideas. I work best with requests like, "My company is named So-and-So, I like BLUE designs on a White shirt with the following text: *insert text here*. I would like a cute cartoon penguin incorporated."
Tell me what you think your project is worth for a design and I may just jump on it right there and get it done and then email you with a sample watermark. So far, I'm 3 for 3 selling my initial idea. :D
So here's what you'd get:
2 or so colored versions of:
10inch x 10inch (or whatever you like) 200-300dpi PNG file with transparencies that you can take and print yourself for a heat press and/or put on your own Cafepress store (or wherever)
I'll also create a one or two preview pictures of the design so you can use it for linking or for previewing on the web. All of the above is negotiable, just let me know.
I can do *anything* on a 10x10inch digital canvas within 3-4 hours. Will I work for under $10 an hour? Naw. But from there I'll entertain any idea that you have for trading my time to give you a digital design.
I don't ask for a dime before you see the sample design(s). But first, please see my previously created work for a good idea if I can design for you. cafepress.com/daikonz and my blog is at burtonreport.blogspot.com
Thanks for your time!
