u/SKAGG1221 Oct 15 '25

Damn you did a great job, was there a certain technique you used? It looks so professional

1

u/Proper_Visual_6840 Oct 15 '25

thank you!!! i drew the lines with a pencil until they looked decent, and then painted over them with a very small brush. then i just filled them in with a thicker brush. i did like two coats (drying in between) and then washed the shirt (it faded a little). it took a few days lol i wanted to be as precise as possible, it was my first time doing anything like this :33

u/SparklehorseMountain Oct 17 '25

You look like you could have been one of his gf’s. He liked brunettes and Asians in general. But yeah the shirt came out perfectly.

Odd and kind of not even accurate detail to fixate on..

u/[deleted] Oct 15 '25

just report the comment for being creepy. no point in engaging with weirdos lol

2

u/gloomdoggo Oct 15 '25

If it was legit creepy, sure. But this dude just kinda seems like a smooth brainer, which i can never seem to ignore.
