Transfer.. BadaBing!

How did I know someone would say that? :)  Not a big fan of them compared to printing, in general. And this job included a 14.5"w x 8"h print across the chest that the pocket needed to match.

Hey Prince, you did a stellar job not trying to dis your awesome work... but ... you would have probably made more coin with the transfer and the customer probably would be just as happy.

Yea that size and location is ideal for transfers. Faster, easier, cheaper and clients would not notice a different unless you messed up the process somehow.

Four color process, took A LOT of tweaking, but I am happy with it. 4CP is not something we do all the time, but I am very happy with it. Lots of depth / detail in person that you just dont get in the crappy camera phone pic. This was sent to us big... but @ 72DPI.

Sepped it with ultra seps, ended up boosting the cyan to get the greens right, then had to dial back the yellow and magenta in the house to get that correct. Not perfect, but I'm happy and the customer is thrilled.
base = 225S, yellow = 300T, magenta = 300T, cyan = 300T, highlight = 225S, black = 300T.
60LPI, 22.5 angle, ice blue next level.

We don't do much si,ulated process here, but this is one we did last week. I thought it was fun and turned out nice. Seped using ultra seps.
*Edit... I didn't snap a picture of it fully dialed in registration wise, thus the reason for some white peaking out...

Nice work, guys.

@ Atownsend: Don't you love low-res artwork!? One of the last process jobs we did was similar - the only thing they could provide was less than half the size we needed. Spent SO much extra time tweaking that. (Final results were worth it, though.)
Still... that shirt has me wondering about... sunflower beer?  ???
Nice guys laugh last.

Very nice print Orion.

Are you guys creating the designs for these school bands? Or is the art provided?

Cuz these bands are getting the hook-ups.

Nothing crazy, but this is as crazy as the band people get around here.  The medallion turned out nice.
