I need to do a grayscale print on a black shirt soon, and I'm trying to figure out how to do the separations...

basically there's some bright white areas, all the way, fading to nothingness...

I'll need to figure out how to do the underbase layer too.

I'd love to figure out how to do this myself... as I normally always send jobs like this out.
