Bridgeburner T-Shirt Design request.

I've been talking with Brood off-thread about this and looked into the print costs and it's just going to be ridiculously expensive
Laser printing is the cheapest way to go, however it is a problem as this can only be done on white or light coloured garments, so we have to be realistic here regarding the number of colours used if you want anything like dark red or grey . I still don't like the crown over the shield however and I think the ribands will have to go (additional costs in the colours) and just use text instead. I think this could still work well without to be honest.
If anyone knows a t-shirt printing company local to them that can do them for less than £15.00 a t-shirt (laser) or for screen printing at less than £20.00 per colour for set-up - there are about 8 different colours in that bridgeburner logo which is £160 before we start printing - (t-shirts cost around £10.00 - £15.00 each with this process but you can have dark red, grey etc.

Ouch. Will have a look for manchester ones.
I can also try and make the colours a bit more monochrome, but it might end up making it look a bit crap because i'd have to get rid of all the texture.

Hey guys, I don't know if this is a dead topic yet, but here is a t-shirt idea that I've been kicking around. I was thinking that it could be done monochromatically on a colored background.

Hetan,
Life just catches up with you, ya know. I've been real busy at work and hadn't really thought of the forum until I got your request from Mimo to use one of my old designs. Then I saw the shirt request and I had already been kicking around an idea...so here I am.

Sure you can use my design. I only request artistic credit and a free shirt. Seriously it was a lot of fun to do and I've got ideas for the Chain of Dogs and Itkovian's Grey Swords. So, who knows, if I get the time maybe I can get a line going. I am glad you like the design.

No worries we'll do what you want as far as artistic credit is concerned, just let me know what you want and where.
I'll get some mock-ups done of the t-shirt and send them to you when I have them.
Thanks again

Brilliant! I'm quite glad mine proved prohibitively expensive now

Wow, Enaglio, you managed to nail that in one. Love the bridge, flames, sigil, and inclusion of crossbow quarrels! Nice drawing.
Big thanks to everyone else for all their time spent though!

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.
