Robot-Radio (First shirt)































Robot-Radio
An unknown robot sending out little signals, I don't know why, but he's cute! The odd looking black image is the color separation for the printing. Shown in the top image is 4 of the 8 shirts made (along with one pair of sophie shorts.)

Unfortunately there's no background for this character, I think he is just an amalgamation of everything a cute robot should be, he's fat, he floats, has no pointy bits, and probably makes dee-dee-de-dee-dee noises as it goes about it's business. 

The shirts used for this were bought from goodwill for $2 a piece and the sophies were a pair my girlfriend already had. The ink was bought for this project so I will include it in the cost at $7 per color, and the screen was $25 for more than I will likely ever use. Frame and other tools were homemade and thus free!

$16-shirts
$14- inks
$25- screens
$0- tools
$55 total for 8 shirts= $6.88 a shirt not too shabby
