Blank background help with heat transfers - possible without trimming?
I am designing Heat press transfers onto t-shirts and the designs i have would look good if parts of it didnt have a background instead it would have the t-shirt as part of the background. Without having to cut out each section from my transfer how can i get my transfer on my shirt without having to cut them all out. Im doing this on Dark transfer paper.
(kind of like this, because i know the designer didnt take the time to cut out ever little aspect of that design for a lot of shirts)
yeah, if not custom plastisol transfers or wow paper (i'm guessing this is a self-weeding paper) you'd have to get a vinyl cutter and have it cut it out for you. given your example and the detail within it's design a plastisol transfer would be the way to go. (but have never tried self-weeding paper).

they have a four color process. it's the art 101 system that blue mixed with yellow makes green etc. 4 screens: one for cyan, magenta, yellow and black using water based ink can 'mimic' all the colors in the rainbow. look up plastisol vendors under the search function and check out their rates. it depends on quantity size etc.
