Information

      A print designed to bring back memories of video games played in youth, this image depicts a lone survivor after some world wide catastrophe that has killed off most of the population. AI generated from directed text thinking about games such as Resident Evil and Tomb Raider while setting it in the Shibuya Crossing, Tokyo.

Instruction

Step1: Print the image

I wanted to create an image based on my remembrance of past video games I used to play. This one combines two of my favorite in Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. As I'm not an artist I used an AI generated image based on my description of the scene. This darker style image made a great start for using the Halftone maker as I knew it would be going on a black shirt. The feel of the print is nothing like a large patch of ink and is smooth, allowing for the shirt to breathe and move easily.

Step2: Pre - Press garment

Be sure to pre-press your garment to remove moisture and create a smooth flat surface for the print.

Step3: Press #1

After placing the print where you want it, press with high-pressure for 8 seconds at 280 degrees F.

Step4: Peel Print

Peel immediately after pressing (hot peel) and it should come off smooth without resistance if your pressure was good. If not, try adjusting your pressure and press a second time.
