Dudeee I just want to say I really appreciate your content! I recently tried to find other channels to learn as much as I can to better my t-shirt design skills and I did not find anybody providing the amount of value you do. Even though I'm sure it's a bit frustrating for you, you still take the time to break down your process for us beginners, so we can learn. Thank you for your generosity Charley.
This is cool and all, but it really only works digitally or for printing on paper. If I'm creating a screen for screen printing, how do I delete those little white spaces out of the vector artwork itself?
dude, thanks! no matter how long i've been using illustrator, or really any adobe program, every time I look up a tutorial I find a wayyy easier way of doing things lol.
But if you only want the with texture to be on the grafik below it and not outside, or even make the white part transparent through the logo? This design only works if the background is white?
I like this method. Other tutorials try to get you to use photoshop. However, i have thousands of designs and this is faster. The only issue is with shirts that are not black or white. My question, would it be efficient to duplicate the design, paste in place, compound path, clipping mask over the pattern, then is lays on top of original design perfect with not " overflow"?
Great tutorial, thanks!! One question though was left unanswered: How to prepare the design for print? I mean, "texture 1" would show up as white on any non-white shirt instead of in the actual material color. Do you use "minus front" in pathfinder/shape modes?
When you create the design, just make the texture the same swatch color as the garment/tshirt color. You don’t have to actually cut it out of the design, if that makes sense (for screenprint). If you were doing a sublimation shirt for, say, Redbubble, you WOULD need to subtract it from the design (minus front).
QUESTION: Why not just use the transparency feature? It perfectly masks the design and no erasing the pattern overflow. If you have a dark garment and put the light design on it, you will have to erase every single overflow part. With transparency, you won't have to do this.
Hi, when i try to change colour of texture, the whole rectangle of texture vectors AND the selection box fills (so, a big square of colour rather than just the distressed bits). I've expanded it after live tracing... not sure why?
Charley, really enjoying your videos. Problem: I have followed this video exactly and still I cannto change the color of the image after i do the trace and expand. Its just comes up with a question mark in the box.............very frustrated@!!!!! HELP!!!!!
Hey Charley... What if you want the white grunge layers to be transparent instead of specks of white? I would be doing this for Amazon Merch shirt and I would rather have one color (black) and not two. Any suggestions?
What if I want to add a texture on top of your own artwork - then 'cut away' the texture from the main drawing (so when printed there are little gaps of ink where you laid the texture)
@@CharleyPangus Yeah - I gave that a try, but somehow it kept clipping down to a small shape. Does my 'live paint' need to be expanded...or turned into a shape...or some other formatting before it can be used with the clipping mask? Im mostly sing the brush and live paint. Anyways thanks for the help! I'll keep experimenting
@@meredithbrown2181 I'm trying to do the same thing, it's driving me crazy. Did you ever find a solve for this? I'm going to keep persisting till I find an answer because it'll make the finished product so much easier to recolour and edit.

great videos EXCEPT on the Bella video I heard you quickly mention getting filters online called rust and oil splatter...I really love your videos. On this video it said that these filters were listed....I am sorry but I would love to have these. I don't follow the other sites....are they on this youtube video and I just don't see them? THNX
Hello Charley can you make a tutorails about illustrator basic how to use it and to export to photoshop for maybe to save it to png with out losing the vector.you are the only one who can teach me that i real would appreciate it.you are my yoda lol
WHY DOES EVERYONE DO TIHS VIDEO WITH A COLORED BACKGROUND. WE NEED ONE WITH A TRANSPARENT BACKGROUND. I cant find a single video online here where someone actually goes the next step further and literally just has TEXT. no background. transparent background, completely. okay, now we need the teture to shoot through the text. since there is NO background, i need it to comply with WHATVER color the background is. i just want the text to have holes in it, like someone shot through the text. now, whether you put that text on a shirt, or you put it on a billboard, it should blend RIGHT INTO the background, someone please send me a link for a video like this.

From the link you provided, which had the two textures you used?
I also couldn't find it
This was the best tutorial I've seen for adding grunge effects! Thank you! Definitely subscribing.

Man....😯u r god for many creative aspirants ..I mean it .....
Thank you, this was a really clear and intuitive tutorial. Really fun to do too!
How come the white distressed texture only works on white t-shirts? When it's on colored shirts it shows up looking more like paint splashes.

Maria Sagasser sometimes it depends on the situation
Maria Sagasser I usually like to have the textures on there on layers so I can hide them or change them if I want.
When you create the design, just make the texture the same swatch color as the garment/tshirt color. You don’t have to actually cut it out of the design, if that makes sense (for screenprint). If you were doing a sublimation shirt for, say, Redbubble, you WOULD need to subtract it from the design (minus front).

Awesome as always, Charley! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Which texture pack in the link provided did you use?
QUESTION: Why not just use the transparency feature? It perfectly masks the design and no erasing the pattern overflow. If you have a dark garment and put the light design on it, you will have to erase every single overflow part. With transparency, you won't have to do this.
Thank you! This has been so helpful.
How do you get the edges of your letters to look a little jagged? I noticed the edges of the font isn't completely smooth
Hey Charley, the design ended up lookin sick, I'll go and watch the bella+canvas video now. Keep these videos coming!
Hi, when i try to change colour of texture, the whole rectangle of texture vectors AND the selection box fills (so, a big square of colour rather than just the distressed bits). I've expanded it after live tracing... not sure why?
What is the font name do you use on the "weirdos" text?
Don't see free textures. Your link wants me to pay
Thank you Charley!!!!!
Just what I needed. Thank you!
Happily stumbled across your channel tonight, great stuff!
Hey Charl, nice video but the link for the distressed link isn't there
btbooker6362 just added it my dude

Do more videos like this showing us techniques in 5 -7 minutes
This was really helpful. Thank you!
Awesome design!
What font is the Weirdos? Its Dope, Thanks for the video, super helpful!
Great work bro...
Hey bud I couldn’t find the free textures. Only saw a pack I had to pay for
Sick design and sick video man :)

I have the same problem. did you figure out?
really cool Video! Thx!

Meredith Brown create a mask out of the texture :)

but would't the white show in the print ?
So, I guess your printshop had to finish this and do the separation clipping to make this one piece of art?
That's what I was wondering. For a t-shirt design with universal application, wouldn't you want to use the transparency tool and clip this?
Awesome tutorial
Off The Dome Media Group thank you
Hey Charley - someone posted the same thing i am going to ask....where are the distressed filters you said at the beginning of the video?

Okey, the link has 30 textures, witch one is it?
Nice super
Maxamed mustaf thank you :)
thank you for this tut. however, this won't work well on a non-white shirt. sloppy
sqorpy if it’s going to be screen printed it doesn’t really matter since it only requires black/white layers
@@lilibethtorres4427 Agree! however, most of the viewers will be applying this for DTG.
charley i wanna ask you something
how can you get better everyday in designing skills ?
Kelvin Charles practice man :) learn from people you like.
Kelvin Charles also if you challenge yourself to learn a new design skill everyday you will be a boss 😁❤️
thank you my man
keep practice !
