Today, I was able to watch the video and damn that stuff looks thick. Screen printing a round or oval area on the shirt, curing, then airbrush your design might be the only way, but would the airbrushed art hold up on the screened base after repeated trips through the washing machine?
Good question. On t-shirt forum they say that with water based screen printing ink you color the fibers of t-shirt, that's why there is soft hand on a t-shirt. They highly recommended that super cover for under base. That's why I order it. Unfortunately I didn't get it, but I was checking royal mail tracking and color is in my country. So I guess I need to get it today, maybe tomorrow.
But still, i tried with standard white and results are very good. I suspect that super cover will do even better... So in my theory
airbrush color should stick to the fibers which are colored. -.- But that is just a theory of mine
Washing multiple times would be the answer.
Still need to order bunch of stuff, like the correct mesh. But for that I need to get my hands on a color, cause there is info on it, how thick mesh you need, to push that color on to the t-shirt. My squeegees are waiting for some action. I got 3 of them, different sizes and correct firmness.
But if I went so far with the whole under base crap, I sad to my self can I find another idea. That's why I started to think about spray guns. They are cheap, just like Robbyrocket sad.
But like you noticed, this paint is so thick.
Weird that it gives softer hand then airbrush colors...
edit: not needed for oval or square screen printing . For example: My cousin wanna have punisher t-shirt on black. I created stencil with my cutter. Of punisher logo. So I can put white underbase in to that stencil and then do the airbrushing. I can still get softness around the skull, if I spray white airbrush color around white underbase. I think...
