How It Does Look





Between finishing the printing and sending off the product there was just enough time to do a little photoshoot of the garments, kindly modeled by Alex King and Dolly Dewhurst-Marks, and photographed by the Kindler.

The Printing


Momentous occasion #1, printing.


Momentous occasion #2, having a 'moment'


Momentous occasion #3, hanging to dry


Momentous occasion #4, packing the boxes.


The project is officially finished on my behalf. Without writing anything further the most important thing to do at this stage is thank Muma, Papa and Sister Chapman, Ben Kindler, Alex King and Dolly Dewhurst-Marks for all the help and support they offered.

The process got pretty difficult at times and without everyone's help i'm in know doubt it wouldn't have got finished in time.

So without further ado here is a small selection of the many photo's from the process.

How it'll look


above is a quick mock up of how the designs should look once they've been printed on the garments. Didn't want to spend too long doing this so it's a little rough around the edges but you get the idea. Looks Sweet!

Hoodie Design


The Above is the final image to be featured on the Zip-through hoodie. the design will be printed in large scale on the back of the top, hopefully creating a bold logotype.

Colourways are not decided, featured is the so hot right now CM, of CMYK. however colours are subject to change. The garments are Navy Blue and Charcoal Grey so colours will be light, and likely fairly pastel.

Watch this space...

Supplies

Today marks an important day in the production of the clothing, orders have been placed to screen suppliers for the inks and meshes to print the clothing. A painful amount of money was parted with but soon the rewards shall be reaped.

T-Shirt Design


Above is the final design for the breast of the TShirts. The concept plays heavily on the Royal Armouries identity, shapes and features taken from the image have been borrowed or manipulated to create this design.

"Leeds Surf Cub" will be printed in the bottom right of the shirt, above the hem. in doing this the shirt will be more dynamic, and have two focal elements.

Colors are subject to change, there will be a series of prints in different tones on different coloured fabrics.

Watch the space for more updates on progress of the hoody design, work coming soon.

Smack the Pony

After what seems like an eternity, and having battled with a design i did not only believe in, nor have the desire to complete there has been a change of direction, starboard side.

The move is not a total digression and has been informed by the many citations and decisions taken to get to this point.

Image coming soon
