2 new clips of the week

Both of these sepped as CMYK. On the Corset we ditched the cyan and yellow for a monochromatic look. 55 lpi 305 mesh discharge.
For the Burlesque print we ditched the black and cyan. I mixed a flesh discharge for the yellow and rich scarlet for the magenta. "Museum of Sex logo taken from google, then blown up to purposely blur it. A discharge orange slurry was made and sprayed across her before sending down the dryer.

I love the discharge spray effect, too. It brings so much to the shirt and it is so easy to do.

Thanks all. You're right about the spray. They still do it down in St. Thomas for a line of resort shirts I put together for the Soggy Dollar bar (do I hear field trip?) The slurry is a mixture of water thickened with discharge base. The consistency of the slurry helps to control droplet size. Just use an industrial grade mist bottle from Home Depot. Once you play with it you can get selective with textures. I have a Gyotaku fish print where we use large drops for the fish bubbles and a mist effect for water. Also a vintage dirt bike race poster where we selectively use it to give the illusion of dirt flying up from the rear tire.
By using oversize screens every other head and some spraying we can give the illusion of an allover print without throwing down for special equipment.

So when you do the spray you just basically spray it onto the garment?  You don't have to worry about it getting into the fibers?  I thought discharge had to be driven into the shirt to be effective?  It looks like it produces one awesome effect.

How are you guys doing the spray efferct. I have tryed to do it but the spray bottle sprays it too fine or just not right.
