Unusual wayfinding signage, and think of how lost you’d be without it Hi there My name is Darko, aka XLonche on 99designs, and I recently started designing T-shirts. I would love to share what I’ve learned about this field so far. In this tutorial, you will learn what it takes to design a T-shirt and most importantly, how to prepare the files for print. Before jumping into the computer, you will need to create a sketch — it will be your guide while inking the outlines of the design All right You have the sketch Tee_tut Lets import it into Adobe Illustrator CS6 (note this can also work in CS5.
I am not sure about older versions I am using a template image manipulation service for the brush settings — you can find it at cartoonsnap. In Illustrator, you’ll notice you can choose different weights for a brush: Ultra fine, Fine, Medium, Bold and Bolder. Let’s open the brush template by going to File > Open Recent Files > find the file My_Inking_template_CSai from where you downloaded it, or if you’ve used it before, go to Open Recent Files and it will be there Open the template Now, let’s open our sketch Go to File > Place > find your image and press Okay Or you can drag your sketch from Photoshop to the Illustrator document.
The sketch Double click the layer with your sketch, and check the box that says Dim Images to: 50%. Then, lock the layer by clicking the box next to the eye — a lock symbol will appear. Lock the sketch layer Create a new layer and name it whatever you want. You can do that by clicking the little paper icon at the bottom right of the Layers Palette. 4. New layer Select a brush and start inking the sketch. All the brush settings are set up, you just need to select the brush with a weight that varies from Ultra-fine to Bolder I’m going to use a Medium and Bold brush.
