As always I'm just minding my own business watching some cool new show on TV and I see a prop or a piece of costume and I think, oh darn, now I need one of those.

In this case the Dimension 404 episode "Cinethrax" and the item is Uncle Dusty's (Patton Oswalt) THEY LIVE T-shirt. Pretty sure it's custom as I can't find anything on the web. Here it is:

Looking at it and scrubbing through the film I'm pretty sure the image is a screen grab from the film at this point, isolating the head in Photoshop.

So now I have a little work to do, a fairly trivial piece of masking and monotoning, and I feel it should be a crude halftone too but that's just me. But anyways if you want to join me I've done the leg work so have at it. :)

okay 1) Any ideas on the font? 2) anyone got a higher resolution source?

More when I can apply myself to it. (Frankly I should have been working while I did all that. What's a guy to do?)

cheers

You see I just can't leave it alone. I knew I wouldn't be able to. It's a curse.

This is 300dpi and the face is made into a halftone.

Note: If you want to knock out the white for printing on RedBubble then do that in Photoshop. You have to do that because else the background prints as a white block. They use white ink, see?
