UPDATE: you can now view the entire printing process that went into this design on Flicker, starting here.

Jeff Finley, in cooperation with Design by Humans, have set new heights for t-shirt printing with DBH’s latest tee, Jeff’s Bold Is Beautiful:

Bold Is Beautiful by Jeff Finley NEW! at Design by Humans

This print pushes some boundaries in three ways, and in combination makes it all the more impressive:

  • it’s an oversize print covering nearly all of the shirt area, which requires some big screens and platens
  • it was printed using nine colors to capture all the complexity of the original design; their separator, Dan, deserves some HUGE props
  • to top it all off, this oversized, 9-color print has a soft hand… on a black shirt! Normally prints on dark shirts aren’t as soft because they require more ink to be opaque on the dark background, so this is all hugely impressive.

Well, congratulations DBH and Jeff Finley! The finished product looks absolutely fantastic.

P.S. Happy birthday, Jeff!
