Lucky Design Says:

woah! thank you so much! How much would you think the materials would cost in total? I'll try to find the materials tomorrow at the art shop down the road :) Thanks again!

Funfunfun.

Rememo Says:

I've always wondered how this was done, definitely one of those things I'll have to try when I have some spare monies. Great Tutorial! Thanks!

That's how I did my LOL-A-FISH shirt.

I'm very tired at the moment so I don't get it. *will check again after he naps*

Catleen Says:

I just had flashbacks of printmaking class.

That's cool though, and yes, speedball is by far a superior ink. Unlike most inks it dosn't clump up as easily, and while it is a bit dryer it sticks better and looks cleaner.

I might give this a go, I'm so use to using registers/presses and acids to make a print, making a print on a shirt or something sounds cool. =D

JnZhomie Says:

Cant you just take a white shirt and an inverted image (printed) and iron it on?

Dead Fish Says:

This is a most helpful tutorial.

I've had an interest in silkscreening for a while and I may just have to come back to this on the day that I can actaully afford the supplies.

Very cool... I screenprint as a job this is pretty cool.
