I finally decided to try a t-shirt, so my step-dad said I could use one of his old shirts in case it didn't work out. He works at Ford so I painted a mustang, the same one I painted on a board a while ago. I'm very happy with how it turned out, I just hope I did it right and that it won't wash out. Critism always welcome.

PS- How much would you charge for something like this? I'm hoping I'll get some work by him wearing it.

I enjoyed painting the t-shirt so much I decided to paint one for myself the next day. Conan is my nickname on the football team.

good firsts. i like 'em. $20 for the car. $25 for the conan. (prices include shirts) Did ya try freehand shields? They go really fast on black shirts with shields to sharpen edges 'on the go', as you can touch out little over sprays with black paint quickly.

Ya I tried using freehand shields a bit, but it was my first time using them and I wasn't that great with them. I decided to make a mask for the name Conan but got a bunch of overspray and underspray. Should proabably have taken my time with it a but more.

I like these. I am leaning more toward the "conan" shirt but the Mustang is very good. The only thing that distracts me with the 'stang shirt is that "Mustang" is a bit too far left and that throws the balance off. ( I say "balance 'cause I kan't spell si-mit-try! lol)

Nice job though, Tank!

I think your shirts look good. I really like the mustang one, I haven't gotten up the guts to try one yet (still learning too) The conan shirt is good too, the only thing that is buggin me about it is that the top and bottom part of the sword doesn't line up... I drew a red line to show what I am talking about. Over all they look great for your first time. I sell my shirts for 40$ for anything that has a picture on it. I have done a couple of shirts with just names and I only charged 20$.

Anyway, great job...can't wait to see your next T!
