So I decided to start something new on the side and start with designing some ideas for T shirts with my own spin on my rock and metal inspired but slightly bent ideas .

See if you can get the reference of each and let me know what you think.. Good , positive, negative. whatever.

These are all old school inspired screen print ink as well as I'm not the biggest fan of the new direct to film images that are on a lot of newer shirts with that plastic vinyl sticker feeling stuff as i prefer screen print, anyway what do you think?

The quality of print and design layout looks good from here though I don't personally care for blasphemous stuff. Good luck with your venture! We did a run of shirts for a special event recently and I can suggest having lots of XL, XXL, and XXXL on hand. All the bigger shirt sizes sold out quickly while M and L weren't really large enough to fit anyone but children or small women.
 
Many years ago there was a website where you can use your own designs and sell them on shirts, hoodies, coozies, mugs, mouse pads, etc.,

You set-up a free shop on their site with your designs on their products, people would order them, they would make them to order, and ship to the buyer; and take a cut, and give you a cut. No outlay of cash or need for inventory.

I had a few that sold fairly well. My best sellers were, one with a black on white or white on black that said, "Free Constantinople" , and another that had a silhouette of a medieval knight with a Maltese cross on the shield, with Ecclesia Militans.

I looked into using one of those platforms you mentioned , but unfortunately they don't use the screen printing process and as with most screen printing companies they have a minimum order of usually 45 plus to set up the screen printing and you can do 1 offs with one of the platforms you mentioned and they will make them to order but it's with Direct to film which is like a plastic sticker type of finish on the shirt which I personally don't like.

Still experimenting and just having some fun with it in my spare time so will see if it goes anywhere to expand.
