Hi guys sorry for being a stranger, been real busy re-designing & marketing the line. But here are some pics of some Tattoo designs I got from The Wildside. On some of them I added some "Bling" by adding some adhesive rhinestones. I got the press, pheonix phire 16x20, a couple months ago & have only ruined 2 designs thus far! So now I'm looking into getting custom designs made for my line. Let me know what you think.
Hey, I LOVE IT LOVE IT! I will post some of my line soon, now have to go change my lion w/ crown had the same thing.But Again LOVE IT!
You know what these are pretty generic stock tattoo designs, look almost like Ed Hardy artwork! I too had a Tiger with a crown I was working on too & when I saw these at the ISS show at Atlantic City, I was like DAMN!!! Oh well great artistic minds do think alike! lol!

I know the feeling. I had a design showing a cupcake and a couple of bones underneathe, drawn up and ready for production, but someone else beat me to it.
I had a catchy name already picked out too. That's ok though. I'm working on a new design with the letter I and then a heart, and then NY. I think it'll be huge out there. What do you think about just a yellow circle with a smiley face.
I vend at "high-end" horse shows. Most of the designs that sell are my own competitive horse themes... BUT... I always have some tattoo and goth designs for people to look through and I tell you, people buy them! I sold a rhinestone studded zip hoodie and they wanted a goth hibiscus flower added on the back, and who am I to stop them? So, they got their bling, their goth and I got my $65 I like to have everything in books for the customer to pick out what they want and I make them on the spot with my little travel press. Fun stuff!

Thanks everyone! I gotta say, Heat Transfers have come a long way! There used to be a time where I would not even consider printing anything via Heat Press! Guess those shiny rectangular transfers left a lasting impression on my brain!

Yes. I remember my first heat transfer shirt I bought from the store at the mall. Many of you guys will remember this also. Farrah Fawcett in her swimsuit and beautiful smile, looking like it was a bit chilly when the photo was taken.
My second was of a '68 Camaro.
I'm very new here. Actually an animator & comic book artist looking to start exploring the t-shirt side of design for my studio. What transfer paper & press to you recommend? Those shirts look REALLY nice & I've had fans requesting some of my characters on shirts but don't like the transfer stuff I've seen at mall vendors with the 'hard square outline.'
I use Jet-Pro sofstretch paper, and you'll find a lot of other people use it also. It's a really nice paper you can use on white shirts as well as light shirts, not darks. I use a Hotronix 16X20 press, going on two years now.
Hi D.R., and welcome to the forum. Check the prices at tshirtsupplies.com for Jetprosofstretch (JPSS). They are the best I have seen. Good luck in your new adventure.
Some designs I pressed up!
