Evidently, if you're not on my friend's list, you won't be able to see it...
I hosted it so hopefully you can see this one
I say use that pic for the shirts that are gonna have a girl on it -
I do agree with apix as well. Some days i just don't want a scandolously (sp) clad woman on my chest (first and last time i'll ever say that) - If you can, would you be able to produce two prototypes? One w/an anime chick and one w/just the rotary engine?

Hey everybody, I've been working on a t-shirt idea and thought I'd post it up for some feedback. It's still a work in progress, but if people are interested and I can get enough pre-orders I may get them printed up and take them to the DGRR. Let me know what you like or don't like, thanks!

Nvrfalter: What kind of design are you thinking about making? What do you mean by hand screen? Do you have stuff to do it at home, or is there some inexpensive way to do it by hand? I just use the printing shops that our company outsources too and try to get a deal from them on printing, but setup and screen charges make it really expensive to do small runs.

i have stuff. i would probably make it in illustrator, print it out, trace it on a screen and paint some stuff on it. then i squeege some ink through and its gold.
as far as what goes on, i dunno what do people wanna see? rotors and skulls? it would be single color so like black on a white shirt. nothing as complex as yours

another one for the simple rotor on the chest, small too, well not like the polo logo small, but not covering the whole shirt. i'd buy that in a heartbeat.
i like to think our car/engine is kind of classy. like, other cars are fine, but any schmuk (sp?) can build a v6 v8 and slap a turbo on it (ie cobalt ss), but we have a one of a kind car here. keep it simple and clean, let the rotor speak for itself.
although............that asian is hot!!

Alright, here's a new version on the back with a front print. This is my first attempt at painting a hot asian chick with a little anime flair, I'm still tweaking her art and adding details. Comments welcome.

lol, yeah, I like it too, and it didn't take much time at all compared to how much work is going into the back, lol. I'm wondering if I need to be worried about saying "Renesis" on a shirt, if Mazda's gonna car or not. I thought about putting "SE3PFTW" but didn't think enough people would understand that.

I like the front one too
The back one I would like if it didn't have the girl on it - seriously . Also I would get rid of the cutaway engine as it is a double up on the rotor and makes it look too busy.
So that leaves the car the rotor the tach and the "redline rocket"
Yep - I would buy that

I'm still not sure if I like the font either... it's NFS font, a little TOO ricey I'm gonna keep messin' around until I like it.
I like girls on shirts
Thanks Jon, eventually I'll get it dialed in to something I would wear, just gonna keep tweaking.
LOL, thanks ;P My first time painting an asian, she needs a little work. I'm actually leaning towards putting a hot asian girl's face on my Mechanic girl. Quick, someone find me a pic of the hottest asian girl's face

and here's one putting the asian face on the mechanic. I need to find a more "perfect" looking asian beauty for reference to paint the face on her though, in my first attempt she looks like she's gonna cry or she's pissed or something.
