I asked my guy for a test shirt. he made this for me when the first round of stickers went through but forgot to give it to me with the stickers. I just got this today, so this is the "prototype"

Whats your guys thoughts/suggestions.

my first thought is to make the picture a touch smaller, I also personally want a colored shirt so i can eliminate the border and just have the pig and words. Mine might have to be a one off though, as i wont be able to do something different for everyone.

lets get some ideas and i'll get a picture of what it should look like..

This shirt is is vinyl, if we only have 10-15 shirts it will have to stay vinyl. If we can get 20+ shirts we can get it screen printed (my personal preference.)

for reference, im 170lbs 5ft 9 (with a longer torso) this shirt is a medium (prewash)

Smaller graphic and, if printing, slightly faded mebbe?

Lol, i talked to my guy after posting this about mixing and matching colors (shirt color) He said no problems. I dont want to go too crazy, im thinking 4 maybe 5 colors depending on how many we get a call for.

Graphic that big on the back, and little pig on the front maybe?

Unfortunatly to keep the costs down, were only going to be printing on the front, i thought of doing something like this as well. Cost of the printing (because of time) goes up and makes the shirts much spendier.
 
I also talked to my guy about taking the boarder away and having just the landcruiser (whats white would be white, whats black would be the color of the shirt) said it shouldnt be an issue.
 
If only printing on the front, then reduce the size of the artwork. I'm not a fan of black though, but am flexible. I'll take one Large and one XL and a small for the boy.

I'm with you on no border with just the pig and words. What colors were you thinking about going with? I'd be in for a couple of shirts.

Glad were on the same page.

I personally was going to see if we could find something close to the nebula green (so it would end up looking like my pig) So my thoughs are this.

Hot pink for the ladies (my wife wants one, figured maybe some of the other ladies might as well)
Black
White
Red
Green'ish
 
Silk screen is a must. The vinyl will just get hot and not breath - ugh.

Maybe move the screen down on the torso a little?

Of course you should offer Pig shirts in Panther Pink! That is only right! Plus OD green or Nebula green. Maybe Pumpkin Orange?

If at all reasonable I'll take 2 (2XL) Black and gray colors but flexible.

Maybe a chance to use the Jim Mack suggested TXT? I like it a little better

Front Pig on Rt breast - with picture on back????

Thanks

I too like the font that J Mack used.
 
Awesome ideas guys. I'll look into the jmack font see if I can match something up.
 
ID like to see it in an orange definitely make the graphic smaller and I like the typography choice I can help with some of the design features if you need it I do graphic design. Just let me know.
