Custom Made Metal Shirts

[Reign in Acai]

O.K I'm sick and tired of searching for metal band shirts and coming up with little results. When I do find a shirt of a band I like, I don't care for the shirt design. So I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to make my own metal shirts by copying the logo of <insert band here> and taking it to the local graphic design shirt store and having them mesh it on to the shirt. Anyone else do this? If so, lets see some pics.

 

[First Blood]

Buy a silkscreen...

Serigraphy kicks ass.

Is this legal? Please say yes.

 

[skeptik]

Of course it's fucking legal...

 

[anonymousnick2001]

It was a conscience thing.

It'll probably cost a rediculous amount to get it printed down at the graphic place. Like "First Blood" mentioned, just get a silk screen... do it yourself.

 

[ShadowOfDeath]

What is a silk screen?

I wanted to this a while back, but thought it would be illeagal. Most likely if the bands underground no one will give a shit if you reproduce the shirt for personal use.

I tried getting this done once & the guy at the shop, back out.
He was afraid he'd have some coming after him...

I doubt many screenprinting companies will just print stuff like that carelessly, especially since they have to consider the responsibilities placed on them if copyright infringement came up.

just tell them its your band. unless the owner of the place (or whoever is working there) is into metal you are in the clear.

Does anyone know how much it'd cost? Silkscreen and Hiring someone to do it.

Another problem is, most of those companies will want you to buy in bulk.

 

[unknown]

how much does a silkscreen cost?

 

[eternalhours]

Could just get hold of some fabric pens/fabric paint & do it yourself?

...if you wanted to make an Impaled Northern Moonforest shirt.

 

[Psychonaut]

Fuck that! NO ONE draws the Necrowizard like Seth!

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

...if you wanted to make an Impaled Northern Moonforest shirt.

Fuck that! NO ONE draws the Necrowizard like Seth!

The addition of the word "chattering" in parentheses makes that hilarious.
