Another Weekend
« on: April 14, 2010, 01:21:45 PM »
First draft of the art for my next on-site event printing weekend after next.

The car is f-ing orange so lets pick another color to argue about.

Artwork was all done in Corel X4.

Screens will be 305, all at 60-lpi 22.5 degree. Will be printed with a white base all wet on wet.

...it looks real nice anyway; and you don't call yourself an artist. (and yes, I do know that cyan is already greenish)

The shirt color shown in Gildan Sand or Port Authority Light Sand.

It will be printed on White, Ash, Sand, Light Pink and Light Blue shirts.

When printing on light color shirts with the white base there is no need for a highlight.

P knows how to make a print work the way "he" wants it to.

I would give anything to be your front man on one of these things ;D

They are fun.

Yes on the second question.

The reason it looks washed out is because it is a composite of the separations. The magenta is dialed down as it can be over powering if you do not watch out.

Here is is straight for Corel.

4 color process is actually fun and not that hard to do.

Now I did not do this one but just showing what they where used to in the past.

Is the old one DTG?

The purple car isn't popping. I like the look of the drawn cars over the look of the photo of the car.

I do not know if it is DTG or process. It is just one of the images they sent me last October when we were getting ready to do the November Fest for them. I totally agree on the car thing. Drawn car just look cooler.
