The most important setting here is the CMYK color setting. With scanning out of the way, I'm going to create a new file in Illustrator ( File > New) and we're going to use the settings shown in the picture. These settings will ensure the quality of your scan. It's important to always scan in at a high quality - I would usually recommend choosing the Black & White setting on your scanner (assuming it has this option, some scanners are different) along with a resolution of around 600 dpi, but no less than 300 dpi. Having completed your sketch, we're now going to scan it into the computer. Keep asking yourself "would I wear this?". Try not to spend too much time on it however, especially if you have a deadline to keep! I personally use either pencil or fine liner pen - your preference really! When sketching out ideas it is also important to keep in mind that this is for a t-shirt, don't get too complicated. I'll be sharing tips and tricks I've learned during my time designing for apparel and using simple techniques in Illustrator to achieve this - nothing complicated!īegin by roughly sketching out what you want to include in your design, it's okay to add details in at this stage, the more you have finalized the better! It just means less time deliberating what to include and what not to later in Illustrator.
In this tutorial I'd like to share with you how to use Adobe Illustrator to complete a design for the particular purpose of being printed on a piece of clothing.
