Art & Inspiration Which of these shirt design do you like more?

All the motorcycle shops put the image on the back. Rolling billboard!
If it was on the front everyone knew you got it from a flea market vendor and didn’t own a bike.

 

I've had shirts done for my brother's contracting company. I worked with a local smal business print shop and they were willing to do some clean up of my design using better software than I have. Also gave recommendations on design to keep costs in line - how many colors etc.

If you haven't identified a print shop yet. See what support they can offer.

 

Put me in the line that wants it on the back too. And I like the color with the black n white font. Since you're messing with fonts, and don't mind input, I'd make "Speed Shop" as a casual cursive. Think "American Standard" logo as seen on plumbing fixtures. Just an idea.

They also used a more formal logo too, but it's a nice font that makes the point.

 

I agree!

The 1st one big on the back & the 2nd one on the left pocket on the front!

My company shirts have my logo on the left front, but my new ones that I will be debuting shortly will also have the big logo on the back.

God Bless

Here are the 2 stickers at the printer currently. Should have these in about a week...

 

I agree with, the font on the colour one is much better, but the monochrome looks better than the colours, so this 3rd choice looks excellent, and would be my choice.

 

Alright so consensus is black and white. Use the block font....

I'm working with @41 GMC K-18 to do a line drawing. Hopefully we come up with something awesome!

Check out the stickers posted above and let me know what you think.

 

Have you thought of using a less formal font (more on the cursive side) and having "Seattle" above the pic
and "Speed Shop" below......... maybe in a circular fashion around the pickup.

 

I have. The program I am using does not have an acceptable curve to my eyes. It's more half round, not arched...if that makes sense... Still working on it....

 

I like the first one.

Sounds like I'm late to the party again.

I think the font on the color shirt is too big, it overwhelms the truck. The smaller font (like the 2nd pic), in 2 color, with the 2 color truck as a line drawing would be better.

I also don't like black tee shirts. Too hot in the summer sun. A gray shirt works better in the summer sun.

You can put the design on the front "pocket area", without having the pocket, a line drawing of the truck with the company name in a single color works well on the front breast pocket area and doesn't add much to the cost, especially if the front print was one of the same colors of the two used on the back.

When I had my shop shirts made, the shop drew the design and printed the design on tee shirts, sweat shirts, and hoodies. If the colors in the design are pretty generic, the design can be put on multiple colors of shirts. The print shop had a minimum order number but would allow me to choose the shirt style, sizes, and shirt colors (as long as we didn't get too carried away with the number of shirt colors).
Had fixed costs per shirt, style, & size as long as we exceeded the minimum number of the total count. After the 1st order, we took preorders and when we were close to the total count we reordered.

 

Maybe.........

 

Second one

One of mine that one of the Friday Art Show participants here on the HAMB did for me apparently 13 years ago to back up my black and white vote.

 

Both T-shirt designs look great. But, I guess I've spent too many sunny days on the ramp at airshows over the last 50 years; black just gets too effing hot for me to wear; even in this area. Black on white would look ok IMHO...

 

2nd one

 

2nd one, on the front.

 

Both are neat but #2 would be my choice.

 

Design by committee, you've got to love the HAMB .

 

The Black and white! I would lower the pickup a bit for the custom touch. Nice logo

 

none

 

Cool! Thanks for the constructive criticism

 

2nd

 

Color, please.

 

As long as the artwork is on the front and there’s no pocket I’m cool with both.

 

Top one for me, but I like the version #3 someone put up which was a greyscale of the top one.

Just to throw it out there, in a sea of black and white shirts that semi colored one stands out, but is still simple and nice. I'd wear one!

 

Black and white... Cool design for sure.

 

Black and White

 

I like both renderings however, I'm leaning more towards the second. Either way, they're both cool!

 

Black and white for me, I will pick one up next time I am in Seattle
