Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
Thought I would put something up for what I think someone petitioned for to be national screen printing day. Not sure if this went anywhere. Murphy37

Murphy37I got a print from another shop to recreate a few months back and the image was a lot like that one in that it had a lot of black coverage with finer line images in between and I swear to you the black was at least 2 layers thick if not 3. I think it was pfpfp and it was the closest thing I've ever seen to a shirt that might actually slow down a bullet. It for sure would stop a pellet or BB gun. We gave the shirt back to the customer but I wish I had it back so we could send it from shop to shop so you guys could experience that shirt, it was simply amazing to think someone got paid to print that thing.
Yeah Alan I hate those big blotchy underbases to lay colors on top of. It makes it pretty tough to get by with 1 rotation. I had a similar job the other day. Still you done a nice job on that. Binkspot that looks good for such a small elephant. Looks like great registration from where I'm sitting.
The first, 600th, and 1100th prints of this run.Not one micro was touched from putting the screens on press to the final print. We did one test print, changed out the red to a better one, then ran it. 7 color sim process. Base, flash, flesh tone 1, flesh tone 2, 185 red, 102 yellow, black, top white. You can see some detail loss from the test print to the last shirt but we were on a bit of time crunch on this one and literally didn't have a minute to spare.
Alan, I\m usually not one to question spelling and grammar :0 and I know this was customer provided art, but shouldn't it say "I Survived instead of "I Survive" ? Good seps and good printing.Quote from: alan802 on April 21, 2014, 06:48:56 PMThe first, 600th, and 1100th prints of this run.Not one micro was touched from putting the screens on press to the final print.
