[Reclaimmayday] Fwd: Re: T-Shirts

Yeah, I've just been looking at that one on FB....I reckon the box may be the way to go as it'd save on screen costs....anyone mind me having a fiddle with the artwork to get things moving then? lukas? (or would you rather finish it off yourself?)
Thinking about it, the artwork would also depend what the colour the actual shirts are as you'd have to use that as one of the colours (unless you print in 3 colours, which would increase costs)
anna - do you wanna have a look at what colours and how many of each you've got and let me know?
