T-shirt designed as companion merchandise to promote the ZCFH Sonic Assault compilation. The shirts sold out pretty fast, to my surprise!

Hey, that’s a very cool t-shirt design! Great t-shirts can be an amazing marketing tool, and I’m glad to see yours worked so well for your compilation CD. I saw with the compilation, you did a full vector design. Did you do the same for this image? I was also wondering about which program you used for the design, and what kind of printing costs you had. I’ve had a few t-shirts done for work, but they’ve all been very simple – just text on very cheap cotton shirts. I would love to do something with pictures and color, but it always seems to get very expensive very quickly, especially since we do mostly front and back shirts (so there’s almost twice the cost). Did you have anything on the back of these?

Thanks! I should post modeled pics of the tshirts…Anyway, there is a back design for this one, I simply forgot to include it in my post. Vector is the best way top get a crisp, easy to print, solid design on tshirts. This was all done in Adobe Illustrator, using vectorized scans of artwork which I prepared in Photoshop. Unfortunately, I’m not sure about the costs as I got the record label to print them, but I do know they printed about 50 of these and they sold out within a month online! The rest were sold at concerts and indy music/art events where I or the label had a kiosk to sell our stuff. It was a great overall experience that I hope to do this again, along with another soundtrack when I finish my next book.
Have you considered the many websites that offer print on demand tshirts?

You shouldn’t be surprised why it got sold out fast. It’s really beautiful and conveys a lot of meaning with it. Whoever wears it should be very proud because the design is artistically done.
