the front design, I'm working on now.. but...
this is two possibilities for the back:
#1 (sacreligeous)
[img]
#2 (dead bodies in agony)
[img]
these are sleeves (left for #2, right for #1)
#1 (poopscle sticks)
[img]
#1 (scribbles and dicks)

i like back 2
[Aug 15,2004 11:22pm - the_reverend ""]
here was the original front..
but I don't like the font.

[Aug 15,2004 11:24pm - RustedAngel ""]
i don't like back #2...
the font of the first sleeve is gay.
change the 'new england is wicked pissed' font.

bah, that prehistoric looking, just use something regular.
I actually don't think a sleeve print on a zipup would be a good idea.
[Aug 15,2004 11:26pm - the_reverend ""]
#2 is "missing something".. but I don't know.
what font should I use for the neiwp?
or the arm?
[Aug 15,2004 11:28pm - succubus ""]
i guess i'm the only onw who likes the second one from what aaron tells me...then forget me...however, as tom said i don't like the first sleeve..looks like popsicle sticks
[Aug 15,2004 11:28pm - the_reverend ""]
ps: the images are from 1872 block etchings from my favorite book of all times. they are done by gustave dore
[Aug 15,2004 11:34pm - boobtoucher ""]
i like the second back...it'd be sick if you put "new england is wicked pissed" on the back of the actual hood. So one can only read it from behind while your hoods up. Then, mutha fuckas will know that new england REALLY is pissed! (and fuckin weird)
[Aug 15,2004 11:49pm - powerkok ""]
hey check this out, ALIEN font always looks cool, and I like the symmetry of #2
[img]
I just have a poopload of fonts and lots of time.
[Aug 15,2004 11:49pm - powerkok ""]
and I like back #2 also
[Aug 16,2004 12:06am - the_reverend ""]

I like your aliens font, but I made a thickerish version
[img]
[Aug 16,2004 12:06am - the_reverend ""]
the line is the "zipper"
[Aug 16,2004 12:18am - powerkok ""]
ya I like that top one even more...simple but classy.
[Aug 16,2004 12:19am - succubus ""]
ditto to that
[Aug 16,2004 12:20am - Abbath ""]
i think #2 is fucking sick, dead bodies in agony \M/ sick!!!!!!
i don't like any of the sleeves yet though
[Aug 16,2004 12:31am - the_reverend ""]
sleeve #3 (something for everyone to hate!)
[img]
[Aug 16,2004 12:34am - Abbath ""]
YAY! thats what i'm talking about! most hottness
[Aug 16,2004 12:54am - Blue ""]
#2 (dead bodies...) is pretty rad. the non aliens rttp gets my vote for goodness. and sleve #3 blows the rest away.
[Aug 16,2004 8:41am - the_reverend ""]
I think I'm going to redo #2 making the image less tall and more wide. there is just a lot of dead space on it.
I'm also thinking that people will bitch about the genres on the sleeves... but I guess that's what patches are for.
[Aug 16,2004 9:07am - succubus ""]
yeah i felt #1 was too religious for a lot of athiest metal heads but i guess at first the people rev messaged all preferred #1 whereas i thought the dead bodies were more "metal"
i prefer the mt font (second to last you posted) and sleeve #3
but you already knew all that.
[Aug 16,2004 10:18am - WhyamIandasshole ""]
I like the font above the thick RTTP.
[Aug 16,2004 10:23am - RustedAngel ""]
i still don't think there should be sleeve prints on a zipup.
[Aug 16,2004 10:24am - dirteecrayon ""]
rev,
how large is the second image (the original)
can you include more of the picture and place it on the bottom half of the hoodie and have the text right above it to get rid of the extra space?
i like sleeve #3
the popsicle sticks one looks a bit elementary
and i think jesus was black metal patches would totally rule!
my .50 cents
[Aug 16,2004 10:26am - RustedAngel ""]
i still don't think there should be sleeve prints on a zipup.
here's my old one, i'm gonna play with this one a little more and see what happens.
[img]
[Aug 16,2004 10:27am - vivi ""]
"fuck that dude im not gonna wear something that says hardcore on it. hardcore is fucking gay. METAL IS THE LAW". part of me says that. the other part says i think sleeve 3 is by far the coolest.
[Aug 16,2004 10:36am - the_reverend ""]
ok, looks like I'm going to retool the #2 (dead bodies in agony) back to make it look more "full" and then probably go with this:
[img]
front and the sleeves is still up in the air.
just need to wait for my laptop to get reimaged.
[Aug 16,2004 10:38am - Abbath ""]
will you hurry up and make on already? i wanna buy one!
[Aug 16,2004 10:43am - the_reverend ""]
I just had someone from CA order one of the old hoodies..
i've only got like 4 of those left.
I need to look and see what sizes I have left.
[Aug 16,2004 10:47am - RustedAngel ""]
I don't think either of those illustrations would look good printed. The lines are too small and fine, unless you made the print huge they would just look like a block of ink.
[Aug 16,2004 10:49am - succubus ""]
people should order the old ones!
they are going to go down in history as vintage metal wear
ohh yeah
[Aug 16,2004 10:50am - tbone_r ""]
'new england is wicked pissed' is kinda cheesy rev
[Aug 16,2004 10:57am - AUTOPSY_666 ""]
vivi said: im not gonna wear something that says hardcore on it. hardcore is fucking gay.
Yeah.
[Aug 16,2004 10:57am - Joe/NotCommon ""]
I am going to make NotCommon shirts soon
[Aug 16,2004 10:58am - vivi ""]
i was kinda just fuckin around cos of the comment he made 'something for everyone to hate'. but yeah haha in all honesty i really wouldnt wear something that said hardcore on it most likely. no definetly not.
[Aug 16,2004 11:01am - the_reverend ""]
yeah, I didn't know what prints able to do.
I don't want just plan text on the back cause I think that looks gay.
I also like the way the shroud shirts look with their picture on the back.
I figured that I would send kritian the art work and see what he thought he could do.
[Aug 16,2004 11:02am - Joe/NotCommon ""]
NEW ENGLAND IS WICKED GAY!
[Aug 16,2004 11:50am - kellthevalkyrie ""]
I like picture#2. i don't like sleave #3.
[Aug 16,2004 11:52am - succubus ""]
he's not going to be able to make EVERYONE happy
[Aug 16,2004 11:52am - vivi ""]
succubus said:he's not going to be able to make EVERYONE happy
then he should be fed to wolves
[Aug 16,2004 11:54am - powerkok ""]
new england is wicked pissed is funny and original....you youngns have no sonse of humor!
[Aug 16,2004 11:55am - succubus ""]
vivi said:succubus said:he's not going to be able to make EVERYONE happy

never!
but if it happens then i will have 4 cameras
damn....
[Aug 16,2004 12:05pm - the_reverend ""]
slogans are funny.
the ooriginal hoodie said
"support local acts of brutality" now that is funny.
[Aug 16,2004 12:10pm - succubus ""]
i like that one too
[Aug 16,2004 12:12pm - the_reverend ""]
I don't get how JSR can do something like this
[img]
but this:
[img]
is too detailed? I just e-mailed kristian to ask just what they can do. it's a good thing that I can't log into trillian right now cause i'm sure some chainsaw boner would be yelling at me.
[Aug 16,2004 12:31pm - succubus ""]
lol
yep and he told me that the sleeve writing is too much for a zip up hoodie =)
[Aug 16,2004 12:34pm - the_reverend ""]
yeah, I sort of got that message from all the things above... i'm no the fence about it...
I do remember someone at the bombshelter this weekend telling me "you might as well go all out"... I'm pretty sure that same person it now telling you "the sleeve writing is too much for a zip up hoodie"
[Aug 16,2004 12:34pm - succubus ""]
hahahahaha
yep and we love him so!
[Aug 16,2004 12:37pm - RustedAngel ""]
well, if you have it that small, it might not look too good. how big do you want it to be?
I forgot you were getting zipups, I do think that sleeve prints on a zipup would be weird.
[Aug 16,2004 12:38pm - dirteecrayon ""]
hahahaha
i think PV should do a photo shoot wearing the new hoodies!
[Aug 16,2004 12:39pm - RustedAngel ""]
a hot chick wearing nothing but the hoodie unzipped should be in the photoshoot.
[Aug 16,2004 12:40pm - succubus ""]
hahahaha
actually Tom...that's exactly what i was wearing sunday am
[Aug 16,2004 12:41pm - dirteecrayon ""]

fine you can join PV in the shoot too!
;)
[Aug 16,2004 12:41pm - RustedAngel ""]
eww, I don't wanna hear about my sis being nude!! jeez. :spineyes:
[Aug 16,2004 12:43pm - succubus ""]
yeah i know...i was gonna say..."i know this doesn't qualify as hot but.."
hahahaha
it was my tight gray one and the rev seemed to like tit..
but i digress!
hahaha
[Aug 16,2004 12:46pm - RustedAngel ""]
i'm sure he liked 'tit'.
[Aug 16,2004 12:48pm - dirteecrayon ""]
too much info
oh my virgin ears
:earmuffs:
[Aug 16,2004 12:50pm - retzam ""]
I don't understand the problem with sleeve prints on a zipup though... could you explain??
[Aug 16,2004 12:52pm - the_reverend ""]
the sleeve idea came cause the image is on one side of the back. so I figured a sleeve on the oposite side to balance this out.
you said that the designs are a max 14"x14" for smalls, right?
I started with a 14x14 300dpi designs, put in what I wanted and then chopped the size down to match what I had used up.
I think I'm going to take your advice and ditch the sleeve printing. the front will be the simple RT TP in the "Bell MT" font above and we will work with image #2 (dead bodies in agony) to see if we can get the image too look good on the back. Did you see the back of the shroud shirts? I really liked the way there was an image there and I think it would good on the back of this hoodie.
I'm thinking of putting something on the hood, what do you think of this:
[img]
[Aug 16,2004 12:53pm - RustedAngel ""]
just sounds weird to me to have sleeve prints on a zipup.
I'd prefer to have the large RTTP on the front, with something simple on the back.
[Aug 16,2004 12:54pm - vivi ""]
there should be a vagina on the hood. thatd be awesome. and penises down the sleeves for the ladies.
[Aug 16,2004 12:54pm - dirteecrayon ""]
hahahaha
looks like every jewish guy at my job!
[Aug 16,2004 12:56pm - retzam ""]
hahahahahaha i think vivi's idea is all that and a bag of potato chips
[Aug 16,2004 12:59pm - succubus ""]
weird...all i see is:
.
my work is blocking what looks like book stores now?
mehh
[Aug 16,2004 3:53pm - the_reverend ""]
I'm going to work on the back in a little while.
my laptop is almost done. the more I think about the pictures on the back, the more I like it.
[Aug 16,2004 3:57pm - swamplorddvm ""]
That Amon Amarth shirt rules!
anyways, I would buy that RTTP hoody but my scene points are rather low. :p
[Aug 16,2004 4:05pm - the_reverend ""]
you should know by now,
1) you require 10 scene points to get a hoodie
2) by wearing one, your scene points go down by 5 points (cause you are declaring that you like metal)
[Aug 16,2004 4:10pm - swamplorddvm ""]
but what about wearing a Metal shirt like that AMon Amarth shirt. does that bring dowm my points?
[Aug 16,2004 9:26pm - the_reverend ""]
I like #2 better that this (#3) and I think I'm going with #2.

[Aug 16,2004 9:27pm - Blue ""]
good
[Aug 16,2004 9:30pm - succubus ""]
yayness!
[Aug 16,2004 11:26pm - Abbath ""]
do whatever you want man! i'm still gonna buy one
[Aug 17,2004 1:52pm - the_reverend ""]
I thought it was time to get them cause I got this fortune cookie:
"you will be unusually successful in business"
but then I ate another cookie and it said:
"you have a deep appreciation of the arts and music"
as anyone knows artsy fartsy people always go broke, like darhma on darhma and greg.
[Aug 17,2004 2:13pm - succubus ""]
dharma
and you should know because you are her male version
hahaha
[Aug 17,2004 2:13pm - succubus ""]
wait a minute...wasn't the first fortune myne? and then you said you should have kept that cookie?
hahaha
bastid!
[Aug 17,2004 2:30pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""]
I think if you put printing on the front, back, sleeves, and hood, we're gonna look like Nascar Racers when we wear them.
[img]
[Aug 17,2004 2:31pm - the_reverend ""]
ahahahaha.. like alston/providence punx
no, no hood, no sleeves.
[Aug 17,2004 5:27pm - succubus ""]
lol
[Aug 19,2004 9:07am - the_reverend ""]
the designs have been delivered to the Mega-Corp, Multi-National institution known as JSR ( http://www.jsrdirect.com ).
I sent them the Bell MT front and back #2 & #3 for them to look at and see which will print better. it's going to be the "dead bodies in agony" theme, just trying to figure out which print will work better.
