hi all, hope this is in the correct section! I recently got asked to make a tshirt for my mates girlfriend who drives an R34 skyline and have come up with this so far (not finished yet, a few rough edges to sort out) any suggestions on what iconic retro cars would look good done in this outline style? i have a list as long as my arm in my head, but wanted to choose 5-6 to make (specific ones could be made to order of course) and ideas greatly appreciated!  |

How have you done that? Illustrator and iron-on transfer?

its a t-shirt vinyl cut using a vinyl cutter via the computer and then pressed on with a special heat press, similar idea to iron on transfers but a lot longer lasting and much better quality

Unfortunately they are presumably what are guaranteed to sell and so other more interesting though obscure cars are not offered.  |

They're just the bread and butter, there's no point paying money to ebay every month for something that will only appeal to a few. I'll turn my hand to any car though, I've done a Capri, Anglia, Viva, Firenza and even a Panda 4x4 and for the same price of the listed one's, the custom one's do take longer though as I have to draw it from scratch. |

do an AE86 and an S14a for starters then a Talbot Sunbeam in rally guise, and an RS200 Hit up an E30, and a Mk3 Golf GTi, perhaps Mk4 too Sketch in a Lamborghini Countach, or Diablo, and a Ferrari of your choice (except F40) and there you have a selection of vehicles that are widely popular, should net some steady money, yet are off the beaten track (Mini, Beetle, Escort) enough to avoid major competition from the big players. And then do me my FavorAt as commission for my brilliant idea.. Cheers  |
