Nice, clean, But what's with the halo around the shadow? Is this an index or dither dot?

Oh < looks like the shadow is the shirt color?
How many colors?

Its 4 colors, white underbase, grey, blue, white highlight. 

The "halo" is in the design, mostly to make the car not look like it was just floating.

That is an excellent print. The seps were handled with skill.  While it looks and is a great, I think I would have tried to approach it differently. I only bring it up to provoke thought of the different ways to handle something. Both techniques provide great results and one saves a extra screen. That might not be an issue on a smaller order but can make an impact on large runs.

I'm not saying it would have came out better, and I'm not even trying to get "better" because you can't really get much better than great. That looks great.

What I'm thinking is that you may have even been able to do that same quality with one less color by using the light gray as your underbase and taking out that "white underbase" all together.

It's not a "trying to do it better" thing. It's just another way of looking at it. (like the fly said...as he sat on the mirror and looked at himself).

I think we need a "like" button.

Well said Dan.

And a beautiful print!

Very well done sir. I would have discharged that sucker but thats just me. One day I need to post my Belushi 65 DPI white discharge.
But not today that would be stealing Brandt's thunder.
Again fine job

No doubt I think it came out great as well, and I agree I think we could have actually done it with 3 or maybe even 2 colors of course with the blue gone which didn't really add a lot to the print. 

We were really happy with it, and the client was thrilled as well!

Thanks for the nice comments and I do very much enjoy chat of other ways to do things, I am not one of those guys that won't look at things differently.

Tony thanks for the kind words as well. 

Discharge, man I want to try it so bad, haven't had the time but really do want to start using discharge.  Someday I will find some time for it and get with it.  Thanks again!
