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?
Bumping just to make sure 3D see's it

Very cool shirt...I'd buy it...but not with her on it... A pic of my car/mskit vr and me...

I hear ya, but I'm trying to make it appeal without narrowing it down too much. A fairly stock 8 with ambiguous color so that anyone with an 8 would like to wear it. I'm working on an anime style girl now, trying to make her fairly [G] rated,

I'm avoiding putting Mazda or the emblems or anything on there just to play it safe and not worry about getting in trouble with Mazda for some kind of licensing issue. I may put together a simple i color shirt idea too, but I'm going to finish this idea first

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

Yeah, not a fan of the girl

I do however like the front A LOT. Personally, i say the front stays as is...and the back should just have redline rocket w/no pictures. Or vice versa w/Redline Rocket on the front and RENESIS on the back.

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.
