Awesome print Orion!
Just curious are these high schools huge?
I can't imagine the  high schools around me going for elaborate high color prints... they always want the cheapest route.

Orion, super saweet.  Brandon, that discharge print is off the chart.
It's not a job if you love doing it.

I have to say, I have never seen a print here that isn't worthy. I am in awe of some of the prints I see here. I hope some day I have something deserving of being viewed here. You all are killing it.

Yeah, I agree bimm, we do mostly boring corporate stuff.  When I do get a cool one I can't take a pic.  I could snap some photos of some really good looking 1-2 color work. ;)

Full Spectrum,


I think you should post this into another section all by it'self. It will get lost here quickly and your post is more educational rather than jsut showing off your latest good print witch is what this thread is about.


If you want, we can move it for you.  Probably should go under the Screen Printing (separations category). It will stay up at the top longer and in a category where people will find it easier.

Very nice.  Love the grays.

Thanks Colin! We used CG 11, the base and hi-lite whites did the rest of the work.

Awesome print Orion!

Some are huge. This order was 575 pcs. We can go as low as 36 pcs for this type of work.

Great rendering on that one Brandon.

Orion, you must be making a lot of hs band kids very stoked on their t shirts, excellent work that is above and beyond for that market.

Hi Dan, 

  That's a much better idea than posting that kind of "test print" stuff here you're right.   Maybe make a new thread in the separations under something called "separation and print experiments" or something like that.    I appreciate the consideration.    I do plan on posting more things like that so I agree it would be better as its own thread and not to start confusing this one.    You can move it I'm not sure how to do that really.
