Hi guys!
After 20+ years drawing and painting as a hobby, and all my friends telling me that I should do something productive with all the shit I produce, I decided to put a couple things on one of this print on demand websites. Mostly my tattoo related drawings. But one idea popped up on my mind the other day.

so I made this design thinking some of you guys may like it. I leave the links to the pages where you can find them. I kept the price the lowest that made sense for me (the creator receives a portion of the total price), so nobody thinks Im trying to rip off the community, because its not the case, I made these because I thought it would be coot that there were keyboard related shirts, as it is such a small niche.

https://teespring.com/stores/the-devils-walkingstick (here you can find the black shirt and hoodie)
https://www.redbubble.com/es/people/M9HM/ (and here you can find all the weird shit, from tshirts to shower curtains...)

I sincerely hope you guys like these. And, if you want something keyboard related (or otherwise) I llisten to opinions and will create new designs. I was thinking about a "linear, tactile, clicky" tshirt or something like that too.

Not that I'm interested in this, anyway I would never purchase a t-shirt with such an enormous drawing. I'd feel comfortable having a t-shirt with a 5cm*5cm drawing and nothing more than that. There's a reason most designer's logos are rarely gigantic (yes don't show me a gigantic logo thanks). This just feels ridiculous.

For me, it depends on the design, brand logos too big looks ugly to me, but in the case of drawings, I like them. And this is kind of a light drawing. I can do variations on the design and make it smaller if people like them better.

However, thanks for the feedback.

Looking great!

You will feel better once you embrace your real self XD
Thanks mate!

I'd take those numbers out. Without the legend, it does not make sense. On the other hand, I'd add the DT logo, having received the permission, as sign of politeness in front of the community that fosters your nice initiative.

I wanted to keep the look of the patent diagram, its an aesthetic I enjoy, but adding the whole legend made no sense. But I get what you mean.

Regarding adding the DT logo, thats a great idea, but, who should I ask? is there someone that is OUR LEADER? XD (if someone reading knows who to ask... let me know)

Cheers guys for the comments!

Moderators needed here. @matt3o, will you do the honors of the house?
Btw, there could be a conflict of interest (so to speak, let me pass the term) and even here the first rule always applies. Next time, search before posting. Do not want me too bad, but someone preceded you.

Oh! You are right! I haven't seen that. I'm kinda new around here to be honest, being reading for a while, but only active as a member for a short time.
Well, let's hear from the moderator.

Hi again guys!
While we wait for the moderator to declare this post illegal and turn me into the most hated persona in DT, I made a couple more doodles for t-shirts XD

Hope you guys like them.

I hope this fills your requirements XDDDD https://teespring.com/is-brown-enough?p ... cid=100019

Honestly, I totally forgot about brown alps.

OMG... I'll finally get to have SOME Alps Browns.

Would you be interested in making a design based on the f62/f77 drawings? Assuming it's cool with the technical manual folks.

I‘d love that !!!!

I thought of that possibility, but I thought they may not want to. I will gladly do it if they are ok with it. I can redraw it so it fits on a t-shirt, and maybe add some colors or details so I feel like I do something XD

Cool!
I will work on that tonight and see how it looks. Will be back with the possible designs!

That's ok. In general the rules are: If you want to use the logo on shirts/keycaps/etc. and you're an enthusiast or a small shop, that's no problem. If it's larger scale like a big shop, then we want part of the profits

This is my wife's nightmare

What are you talking about? Surely wearing one of these shirts is a babe magnet?

This is so kind of you guys!

Still disappointed some big brand didn't bring the DT mankini to the main streets to make us filthy rich.

Don't let your dreams be dreams, webwit!
It's not too late.

Hi guys, I put the model f blueprints on the editor to see if I could come up with something cool, but they are just cool the way they are, so the t-shirts as they are will look fantastic.

To do something extra and feel creative, I made this: Hope you guys like it.

Eeeeewww... ANSI.




Jokes aside, I find the "Space Cadet" thing to be a bit... foreign... to IBM keyboards. YMMV.

I'd be interested in a T-Shirt with one of the rare mandolin crystals on it.

I know, it's just a color combination I really like, as said, the original blueprint from the model f manual was just cool for the t-shirts, but couldn't help to try something weird on it.

If you tell me what the hell is that, I might be able to help xdddddd
