Done for fun, a t-shirt for Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina located on the planet Tatooine in beautiful Mos Eisley!

Here is the second t-shirt design, this one is for the Outrider Club located in the Uscru Entertainment District on the Galactic Capitol Planet Coruscant. The club was seen in Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones. If anyone has any suggestions for locations or places that were seen or mentioned in Star Wars, please let me know what you would like to see, and I'll see what I can do to create t-shirts for them!

I was enjoying seeing some of these on facebook. Look for one of these to show up on the fp today.
I would love to see Echo Base or the shield generator, but your locales are great, I have been told I am a bit biased! ;D
-
WOW!!!
These are great!!!!
Have you checked out those websites that produce art work on tee shirts!!
Your Stuff would be great there !!!
Here are some of the sites;
http://www.nowherebad.com/
http://riptapparel.com/
http://qwertee.com/
Some offer a different shirt everyday, some every few days!!!
I've ordered shirts from them they are great!!!
Please look into it we would love to see you work on everybody around the world!!!!

Not a bad idea Rich, but please remember folks there are certain legalities regarding the sale of SW merchandise. You cannot make a profit and Lucasfilms owns all the names and what not for SW so be aware of the legalities if you try to make things available for sale. I have never seen George take on anyone that small, but he sure is willing to take on larger companies trying to sell SW products outside of their approved label. Sheperd Studios won, but barely and they can't sell here in the US.
That being said, I am taking one of these to the fp now!
-
Those sites I listed have Star Wars stuff on them all the time!!!
I bought a couple of Star Wars related themed shirts from theses sites!!!
I hope Viper Aviator at least looks into theses sites to see if it can be done , I just want everyone to see what we get to see on a regular basis.

Yepper, who knows if they have a license or not. I know SW Shop does custom shirts so they may be getting them from those folks, but I do agree it would be great to see more of these made for sale.
-
Thanks for the great compliments guys, I will check out those sites you provided and let you know what happens, for the record I have had designs go up on RIPT before and they are great to work with! Right now I am having a local print shop making physical prototypes of my designs so that I could see what they look like outside of the computer graphics world, once I see them, I'll make modifications as necessary to deliver a quality product.
Another possibility would be to make them Imperial Shipyards exclusives, hummmmm interesting...... LOL
Shawn, I like the idea for Echo Base, a couple of ideas come to mind like the Echo Base Ski Resort and Lodge, The Historical Echo Base Battlesite and Echo Base Safaris. Decisions, decisions, decisions. Let me know which one you like best.
Right now I just settled down the ground work for a hotel and casino on Cloud City. I should have that posted by tomorrow.
-
Alright, I took a break from Cloud City to work on Echo Base for Tamer, I know how much he LOVES Walkers so I decided to make Echo Base a historic Imperial Battlesite. Here is waht I came up with.
(http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h477/viperaviator/EchoBaseBattlesiteT-Shirt.png)
-
Oooo, that Hoth shirt looks fantastic! I love that blue shirt.
FYI, Shawn, StarWarsShop.com is no longer in service. I went by there the other day and they closed down. Not sure what that's all about. Also read on Marvelousnews.com that Hasbrotoyshop.com will only be offering their future Universe and Legends figures by the case only. How a company who makes toys can't sell individual toys on thier own website is beyond me.
And those sites listed above are the ones who make any profit, I believe. If I remember right, the person who submits the artwork might get a free shirt out of it at best.
-
Well here is the FAQ from RIPT

And here is the artist agreement

Here is the t-shirt for that galaxy far, far away's very own "Sin City" AKA Cloud City on the planet Bespin!

Here is a t-shirt from the Boonta Eve Classic Pod Race held at the Mos Espa Grand Arena on the lovely planet of Tatooine
(http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h477/viperaviator/BoontaEveT-Shirt.png)
-
Daggone Cal. Those look fantastic. Ofcourse I had to take that echo base design to that front page.
Cal, I plan on checking with you to see what those prices are like too if they are better and the quality is good.
Pat, I always wondered about how that all worked. I will be honest, I think we would be too small to gain much notice by George, but I know he claims ownership over it all.
-
Great !!!!
I would love to have any of these as shirts!!!
Maybe someday we can if George lets us!!!
I Love your work!!!
Rich
-
Thanks for the compliments everyone! I'm glad you like them. Now for the next one, before anyone says anything, I know it's NOT a location or a place but the design was just too cool not to be made into a t-shirt. The X-Wing featured in the design is the Ralph McQuarrie concept X-Wing remastered by JWwright. I thought it was a fitting design for the prototype.
(http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h477/viperaviator/X-WingFlightTestTeamT-Shirt.png)
-
Wow, that looks awesome. Back on the fp with this!
-
Really cool stuff. I'd love to have the Hoth one. Great work.
-
I hate to jack his thread, but look at what he just created!
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/Tamer%20continued/isynewexclusive.png)
There is also a black and a silver one. They all look great.
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/Tamer%20continued/isynewexclusiveblack.png)
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/Tamer%20continued/isynewexclusivesilver.png)
-
Those are just cool as hell. You think that George would allow to be sold limited rights for people to create and sell sw stuff the way that disney does.
-
Oh man these are just bad ass! I love the Incom one! I love them all but that is really my style. The ISY logo is just perfect man! You are hitting home runs with every project, great work!

Hey guys, with all of these compliments you are making my decision to produce actual t-shirts easier and easier! Now here is one more vehicle design for all of you, this one is for the Sentinel Class Assault Ship.

now this one i REALLY love!!
-
Daggone, that looks sweet. The only thing that would top that is an AT-AT being dropped off under it! ;D
-
Good grief! This one is awesome!
-
Thanks a lot you all, a little preview for whats up next, A shirt for the TIE Interceptor, the AT-AT and possibly the YT-1300 Freighter!
-
Without any further ado, here is the design that I came up with for a t-shirt for the Empire's TIE Interceptor Drivers. Let me know what you think.
(http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h477/viperaviator/InterceptorDriverT-Shirt.png)
-
As promised, here is the t-shirt for the Imperial Heavy Armored Corps utilizing AT-AT Walkers and as a bonus, a poster with the back graphic.

-
This is just killer work you are doing VA! I love each one of these! I have had a vision in my head of an AT-AT given a WWI look along with the drivers and calling them "Dog's of War" and this image has rekindled those thoughts. Very well done!
-
Folks, I am proud to announce that we have gotten VA to agree to do this type of thing on an official basis for the Yards! VA is now the official brand marketer of Imperialshipyards.net!
Needless to say, I think they all rock, but that walker one is my favorite! ;D
-
Absolutely LOVE the Interceptor Driver T-Shirt...
I want one of those for sure.....

Really superb designs VA!
I'd love to see a subtle T'Shirt along the lines of off-duty Clone Army wear, something that denotes the squad.
Anyhow, all of the designs so far get the thumbs up! and a huuuuge BOOOYYYAAAAKKAAAASSHHHAAAA for the coup in getting you to join the crew, you my friend are a true asset! we are very lucky indeed to have snagged such a talented artist!

Thanks a lot Jules, I owe it all to you for pointing me in the direction of the Shipyards, and I really love your suggestion for off duty wear. Do you have any Clone Units you would like to see?
-
I was just using Clone Units as an example as there are a lot of kids out there who would probably love something like that. Something that doesn't shout STAR WARS!!! but something subtle that most people would have to double take to see what it really is. It would probably have to involve an emblem of some sort! (uh oh.... I said the "E" word...)
-
Just an update on projects that are in the works right now. First, I loved Hangarbay94's suggestion of "off-duty" wear for Clone Units, I'm running with that and have an idea for an Air Assault unit to be done. Second is a t-shirt for the TIE Defender, please stay tuned! There is more to come!
-
The first one done out of the two mentioned above is the TIE Defender ENJOY!

Here is a little something different for all of you fine people. This is a t-shirt replicating the Mandalorian Armor of Boba Fett. This was a lot of fun to do. So with that in mind, now that I have the armor templates done. I can offer similar designs in various colors with custom chest and sleeve insignias. If you want to see your custom armor shirt just let me know!

-
Thant is so awesome and I would love to have one! Now, I beg you, and it is hard to type down here on my knees, can you make one like my Norris Tretch figiure?

-
I can certainly give it a shot, it might take a little longer to produce because your figure uses very custom armor
-
Cal, I have never seen anything like this in any kind of T-Shirt Form. I am simply amazed and dumbfounded.
Ofcourse this is now on the front page, but the offer of custom colors and insignias for the Shipyarders is unfathomable to me. I wish I could say more than thanks, but thank you!
-
Wow, this is majorly cool.
-
so where and how much for it ?
-
so where and how much for it ?
Yeah!! What he said!!!
Also are kid sizes available??
My son would love this!!!

Thanks everyone for all of the wonderful compliments on my work, they are very much appreciated.
To answer questions about availability and pricing. Currently I am working out all of the details with a local printer to bring every one of the t-shirts featured in this thread to life, pricing for the shirts at this time is to be determined, but it will be very, very competitive with similar products currently on the market.
The Boba Fett armor t-shirt is another story, Since it requires more silk screening than the others i.e. the sleeves and over the shoulder. I'm working right now with the printer to see what kind of a deal I can get for this one.
As for sizes, all adult and child sizes will be available.
As soon as any more information comes my way, you fine people will be the first to know. In the meantime, if anyone has any more questions, please feel free to ask!
-
The problem we are going to run ito on all these sizes is seperate screen fees. For kids shirts they would have to size down the art and burn new screens. I can't wait to hear how this turns out! What an awesome project VA!

That is true, but on a good note, I'm going to be saving a ton of money by taking each color element and converting them to .eps format myself
-
Cal, I appreciate all the leg work as well as design work that you are putting into this to try to get us decent prices.

Here is a design of a promotional t-shirt for the Corellian Engineering Corporation's YT-2400 Light Freighter

-
Here is a t-shirt design for "the fastest hunk of junk in the Galaxy" Han Solo's very own YT-1300 the Millennium Falcon! I tried to make the font and colors resemble the ones used for the Indiana Jones films, I thought it would be a fitting homage.

Dude....Dude, dude, dude....
WHOA!
Man....your designs are so good they are making my stomach go all goooey!
-
Thanks Jules, if you would like to, check out some of my other non-Star Wars designs here http://www.facebook.com/pages/C6-Graphics-and-Design/168573499882706
-
They are all excellent! I especially like the SHIELD one!
-
Definitely some great shirt designs!
-
Wow these 2 are great! I saw the Indy influence in the lettering right away!
-
Thanks guys, if you all want to, frequently check the C6 Facebook page, it's updated with new t-shirt, poster, movie-TV show dressings almost daily!
http://www.facebook.com/pages/C6-Graphics-and-Design/168573499882706

Oh yeah, that is another great one. Back on the front page.

Awesome!

T-SHIRT PRINTING UPDATE!!!!
I received the samples from the vendor and all I have to say on that is I was extremely disappointed. First off they printed the shirts using Jerzees stock and not the Gildan shirts that I specified! Second, the printing on the shits was very low quality with "ink blobs" presenting at numerous areas and colors looking like they were faded even before being washed. So that led me to believe that when mass printing was to begin, that the owners of the shirts could expect maybe a month or three months of having a viable shirt. I don't believe in that train of thought. I believe, that when someone orders a shirt they should get a quality product and be able to keep it for a lifetime!
I have more vendors lined up and I plan on updating you as updates become available.
-
Good decision and thanks for all of ypur hard work and time on this.
-
Cal has really worked hard on this. Trust me, when this gets done I think these are going to be the premier shirts that you can find. Cal, sorry for the quality. One would have thought they would have tried to impress you. Guess not.
I am going to try and find some time to get back to the one t shirt printer I used for your last design and see if I can get a better price this time. I think the quality is ok even if the price is a bit much for a T.
-
Thanks guys, just because we lost one battle, does not mean we lost the war! I'm sure I'll get the right vendor for the right price and the right quality product!
-
Here is a sneak peak at the next t-shirt design for the RZ-1 "Razor" A-wing Interceptor
(http://i1111.photobucket.com/albums/h477/viperaviator/A-WingT-ShirtDesign.png)
-
That is awesome Cal! The only thing that could make it better would be to add a pilot in the cockpit. Very cool!
-
Here is an off-duty t-shirt design for the pilots from the 181st Fighter Group.

-
that is just darned pretty!
-
Wow, I like it. On the front page. Man, I would love to see some of these great designs make it to print. I can imagine seeing someone walk down the street one day with one of Cal's designs on em.
-
OH I want one of those....that is awesome!!!!!
How do I get one.....
-
Excellent designs!
-
Ah man I'd pay good money for a few of these t-shirts, especially that Incom X-Wing one! Really really nice work on all these!
-
Sorry to dredge up an old thread but I was wondering if there is a place to buy Viper Aviator's t-shirts and artwork? I also saw his gallery on deviantart.com, great stuff!
-
Our last T-Shirt Design was done by him. I am figuring on starting up a new order if you want one of those. I haven't talked to him in awhile. I need to see how he is doing.
-
I'd definitely be down for an Imperial Shipyards t-shirt if they're available.

Ok. I am into a few things right now, but here in a week or so I will start up an order thread and you can add your details. I am also happy to announce that after talking with Cal he is going to be popping back in here to show us more of his work in a moderator capacity.
-
Awesome, a t-shirt would be cool and I really look forward to more of Cal's Star Wars related artwork.
