Bootleg rap tees usually use 2-4 fonts with 2-4 photos along with specific fonts. The font FX usually hav an outer white stroke, inner black stroke, gradient 50/50 of the txt and a inner drop shadow. The main pallet is usually red, blue, yellow overlays on photos. I’d say the txt is the most important part of the bootleg. Inner bubbles, glitter, diamond, lightning etc. most think bling txt is bootleg but there’s way more to it.

Hi Man, How did you get the faded background, when I use the brush to do this it leaves it quite blocky

@SpearheadMedia 3 жыл бұрын

Hi mate - do you mean with the brush tool? You just need to turn the hardness down to 0% and you will get a nice smooth fade in. Hope this helps 🙏

@kpope3560 3 жыл бұрын

@@SpearheadMedia Yeah with the brush tool, when I send to DTG printers they preview it still with the block square. I'll try more fading. Thanks

@SpearheadMedia 3 жыл бұрын

Aye mate, keep trying to feather it in. Also if you are printing on a black garment make sure to remove all the black from your design before printing. You can do this quickly by merging all layers when finished, then going to select, select colour and selecting only black (the hex code is #000000) and clicking delete. Best of look with it mate

@@kpope3560 Using 0% hardness brush for DTG will cause a white glow under the graphic. You’ll need more of a speckle brush. So, you don’t have a white glow around the borders. Just a tip from a DTG printer.

Amazing tutorial bro 🙌🏽🔥 is there any copyright infringement if you were to sell these types of merch cause you have Gordon’s face?

@SpearheadMedia 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks a million mate, glad you enjoyed it! Great question - personally I would not sell this, I just made it for a friend for fun, but there is some loopholes. For example if you were to look into parody law for your country it might be safe as it could be deemed as parody which falls under "fair use of copyrighted work when it is a humourous form of social commentary or literary criticism". It varies from country to country and there is a lot of grey areas so it's always good to play it safe haha. Hope that helps though mate, and cheers again for checking out the vid!
