Again, this series was meant as a basic overview as to how a design makes it from concept to completed product. It was never intended to give advice, or give how to instructions. It was just to show you the process I go through with the designs.

[TrueSake]

all you did was show that there was color separation done, didn't actually show HOW do it

[frightrags]

That's actually what I wanted to do with this video as this was meant for those who aren't familiar with the process at all. I just wanted to provide a brief overview of the process rather  than a tutorial type of thing. I may do that at some point in the future though.

You need an underbase.......

[frightrags]

Thanks for the comment. You're right...we did use an underbase. I just didn't include it in this video because I was trying to show a very basic breakdown of the design. We actually used the light blue as an underbase (instead of the traditional white). I plan on expanding the series to different designs and will show more of an in-depth process.

[lilmskrys]

hmmm... not all designs come in layers with the colors already separated like that, but ok... cool vid anyway!

[frightrags]

Actually, most of our designers provide those layers since they understand the art will be printed for the shirt. Depending on the design, I may have to clean it up a bit, but in most cases the separations are almost complete when I receive the final design.

Again, this series was meant as a basic overview as to how a design makes it from concept to completed product. We may go into more depth in another series later on, but for now I wanted to give everyone a behind the scenes look. Thanks!

I had no idea this much went into color separation. Very interesting video. I appreciate your shirts just a little bit more now!

[Slayerof100]

Dude that shirt must return to be avaible!

[dreamsxofxhiei]

great introduction for those who don't know! thanks!

[ontherun8]

this is not true color separation, at least in the real mean of the term... you can call this just spot color design... you can do it simply using layers with any decent graphic software...
