the unoffical clothing thread.
well seeing as I've left it quite late, and Paul seems to have his hands full (I've had stuff off him before and it's very good).
I though I'd give it a go myself, so a plain black T shirt and a zip up hoodie with a little skull logo was my starting point. Knocked up this before in Photoshop and printed it out on transfer paper http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._1482534_n.jpg then onto the front of the T shirt http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._7535679_n.jpg and something for the back http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._8056731_n.jpg onto the Hoodie, first a skull and some barbed wire http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._5552951_n.jpg Then some bike matching decals http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...6_163410_n.jpg A few white letters added http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._6104481_n.jpg reflecting the actual engine capacity http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._7026272_n.jpg Then onto the front http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._7465209_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._1202485_n.jpg http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-...4_528277_n.jpg Oh and to show the like to the bike's decals http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._7745786_n.jpg Perhaps not as good as Paul's stuff, but great to do none the less. Cheers Mark. |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
how did you get the transfers onto the garments mark, do you have a heat press?
|
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
No but the wife has an iron amd greaseproof paper.
Cheers Mark. |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
Nice one Mark ...well done
Looking forward to having a chat & a cuppa with you ... last time was when we had an early breakfast at box hill !! See You there :D |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.

Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
How did you cut out the letters and numbers? Are they on a black background?
Looks the dogs :) |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
all the orange ones are from a set of bike decals and lazer cut so no no background at all, the white letters are from an alphabet sheet (cost £2.99) so no background other than te hoddie itself.
Cheers Mark. |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
the two on the T shirt are just Iron on sheet and inkjet printed, then cut out.
Cheers Mark. |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
Ahhh
So how have you got the decals to stay on? Have they just stayed on with the iron? I make a lot of my own stuff for the ferret rescue so just wanting a couple of ideas :) |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
yeah I done a little experimenting and a hot Iron for about 90 seconds works fine. it's very thin vinyl after all, cover with greaseproof paper and it won't stick to the iron, rub in for about a minute while it cools and peel the greaseproof off smoothly.
Cheers Mark. |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
Awesome.
Might try that with a few of the left over decals :) |

The adhesive vinyl will probably just melt and go all gooey. If you're after some which can be pressed on with heat, they need to be made from 'supaflex' or other flexible transfer material. It's specially designed material which melts with the heat and bonds with the fabric. Where did you get the transfers from rictus? They look reasonably good print quality considering they're domestic print transfers :cool: |
Re: the unoffical clothing thread.
Hi Paul, the white skull (back of hoodie) and letters I got off ebay for a couple of quid, the orange stuff is a spare set of bike decals, you're right it'll probably come off after a wash or two, but hey it looks good, the T shirt ones I did in photoshop and just printed out on "iron on" paper I had left from some kids party shirts I done a few years back.
I would imagine the T shirt will last a little while, but really not that fussed, after all it's only to get into the spirit of the weekend:smt102 Cheers Mark. |
