Poll: RE6 TEAM T-shirt design.

[AsteroidBlues]

All I'm making are fan shirts with "Team First name" and a number on the back that was drawn by Enetirnel. Resident Evil/Biohazard 6 is a property of Capcom. I'm not out to infringe on their copyright. I want to support their game and as a fan promote their product to others. This is also a way to bring THIA together when the game comes out.

Slick legal bastard.... xD Alright, I'm just saying, game companies are getting crazy these days. You never know what they might do next.

This is not a major investment. It's something for those here that would like a team shirt. I'm not out to cheat Capcom. These are fan shirts because we love their games.

I didn't say that you were, I was just advising you to tread carefully. Companies are crazy about copyright infringement in this day and age, and I would miss the feeling I get when we bicker. That warm and fuzzy feeling of dark, cavernous eyes staring through the monitor into my yet uncollected soul.

I gave a lot of thought to the design. Custom T-shirts are not that uncommon. It's no surprise where the "Team First name" style was inspired from. And you wouldn't believe how many custom shirts of those are out on the market.

But for the sake of easing your tension here's a site with custom made t-shirts inspired by horror games.

Aww, I knew you felt the same way as I do. All I can say is that I'm looking forward to these shirts, I'll just have to remember to not eat for a couple of days to sock away enough money for one. xD

[Smiley]

Well I buy a lot of stuff RE. Some officially licensed and others custom made by fans for fans.

I've actually reported copyright infringement to Capcom and a decent amount of the stuff I reported is actually still up and around, to even Chinese bootlegs having the company logos on it (despite bootleggers usually get around the copyright by removing them and any company references or logos on there) so there's that and with Capcom Unity trying to actually support some fan pieces, I believe it should be fine as we haven't tried to make official knock-offs of any merchandise or used official and copyrighted artwork pieces.

So, we figured that names and references would be fine. We didn't do a copy and paste of the logo either, I actually redrew it by hand and made some slight differences to it as well.

The top font types are based on common ones that I've also redrawn with modifications to match particular game logos. In the Chris shirt case, modified Impact base with details set up to match the original logo type.

The Leon one, the blue shirt represents the R.P.D. uniform but for newer players, the font type was modified to look like the RE4 one to be a reference to both fanbases for Leon. The Jake one uses a plain serif type to match the standard logo that we've gotten for 6. The Team text is in this same serif font to make it uniform and to refer to 6 as well.

There's plenty of other fan shirts and merchandise around too, so it should be fine as it isn't exactly large scale mass production and/or reproduction of their own goods. If Capcom had actually done something like these in the first place, then Smiley wouldn't have done these I don't think.

And I have bought tons of Clock Tower 3 & Demento/Haunting Ground items, official and have followed up on unofficial items, bootlegs to document everything too.

So they are purely a fan item, like say - me making a Demento shirt or maybe even a little fan-comic of the sort.

Sounds good to me, I just want to keep Smiley safe so I can poke fun at him for a long while to come. xD He's the bane of my existence on THIA, and being a creature of misery myself, I respect that about him.

[Smiley]

I thought no one respected me since I seemingly 'sold out' and fell in love with the current status of RE games. No, I genuinely want to get my hands on a copy of the game. Wearing my team colors with pride and hoping Chris comes out of this one alive.


Here's what will help me determine the price and place to buy:

As this will be exclusive to THIA, for all those that are interested in a Team shirt send me the following in a personalized post:

*Shirt size. (s,m,l,XL,XXL,etc.)
*Shirt type based on gender. (M/F)
*Which "Team" shirt/s you wish to buy. (Chris, Leon, Jake, or all three)
*Will it be sent internationally (in or outside the U.S.)
*How many shirts do you want based on the following information above.

Keep in mind from the places I've checked out, the price is determined by size and color. Darker colored shirts and bigger sized shirts will cost more than lighter colored and smaller sizes. And it's very likely that whatever the cost of the shirt there may in fact be an extra charge for shipping internationally.

[Darkmoon]

That's actually my fault dear. But in their defense they brought up compelling reasons to make their case. I guess even money-craving capitalists do come across as soulless once in a while?

Sorry about the soulless joke. It was me being my usual dickish self, and I wasn't expecting it to actually be taken up by other members. As I said to your lovely better half you can't be soulless anyway - you're not a redhead.

And sorry for any grief I've caused you with RE6 too, as I've been informed you are serious in your postings. I really thought you were being sarcastic. My fault.

So if you kind folks could drop the dodgy jokes, I'd appreciate it...and if you don't I'll hurt you.

Anyway, to keep this relatively on topic - will you be making these in Fat Person sizes? I may or may not be impressed enough with RE6 to buy one myself, which would likely be XXXL (they're never long enough for my freakishly huge torso...and massive gut) but I know a few XL and XXL people who'd likely want one because, well, not $1300.

No worries. I'm not offended. But in the case of shirt sizes I'm looking at limited quantities. If they have shirt sizes above XL I would be sure to get you one if you wanted a Team Shirt. And so far I've seen such sites.

But for those that are considering I will need to look at sizes and which shirts they would want. So go ahead and PM me all the details I wrote above if you're interested. This will help me compare prices and manage orders.

Oh Now you've gone too far!!! I'm a red-head just so you know....lol, just kidding.



My body is hungry.

I would love to custom order a 'Team Giraffe' (with a custom '6' to resemble more a 'Giraffe') Small-size shirt.

[Darkmoon]

I am a red-head. No, really. Technically, my hair is auburn, but I still get all the ginger jokes.

I just think they're funny.

So it was me I was insulting on this occasion. I do that a lot. And I have plenty of souls! You guys never read the legal blurb when you join the site, after all.

But let's try and keep this on topic, from here on please. Smiley and Enetirne are trying to do something cool.

Oh I believe you. Pics of everyone are crawling the 'Post a picture of yourself, come on!!' thread including my own.

There's not much to be said in this topic other than admire/show support and get bumps on any progress on the T-Shirts or discuss on ideas, express our opinions, etc.

So let's Carry on...

[Kaiser]

Copyrights never even crossed my mind... Wow. If that's the case, great job on the design to Smiley and Enetirnel! I can't wait until I pick up my PS3 copy w/ my Team Leon shirt!
