ok... I put it up on Amazon, then I realized it is only available for print-on-demand in the US and UK. Since Mersa wanted one, I threw it up on Redbubble.com too so he can get them in Australia. Apparently redbubble lets you print it on anything from a shirt, to a mug, to a bath mat?!
I really just wanted this as a shirt for myself, but if anyone else wants a shirt (or a Razor Glande throw pillow? COVID-19 face mask???) here are the print-on-demand links:

... and no, I didn’t hire models. Apparently redbubble.com has a method of transferring the 2D image onto a stock model photo in a fairly realistic way. Probably using convolutional neural nets, but I’m not sure. Pretty cool trick though.

Ha! Yeah it’s a little bit difficult to follow. This thread is where RS invented the turkey style throw. That launched a conversation about the other tall tales RS told, including razor glandes in the eye. RS mentioned hunting bears with turkey style, which, combined with razor glandes sounded like an awesome t-shirt, so I threw some artwork together and uploaded it to print-on-demand services so anyone who wants a shirt can order one. Mersa said he would be my model if I had a shirt made, but it looks like redbubble used AI (deep convolutional neural networks) to virtually place my art on a shirt on a real t-shirt model! So that’s it. You are now up to speed Grin

If you want a Razor Glande t-shirt, you can order one from Amazon or Redbubble. I ordered one this morning from Amazon, and it’ll be here in two days. I will post photos when it arrives. I’ve never used redbubble.com for print-on-demand before, so I have no idea how good they are, but since Mersa is in Australia and I can’t set up Amazon POD there... it was my best option for getting a shirt to Mersa if he wants one.

I, for one, am definitely having fun with it. Amazon’s turnaround was super fast! I can’t believe that you can go from idea to printed t-shirt in less than 48 hours!

I will have to try Redbubble to see if they can be that fast and to compare quality. Amazon’s shirts are top notch, and the turnaround was amazing. The downside to Amazon is that you need to already have a seller’s account to have t-shirts made that fast.

Amazon limits your color choices, but I can add another color if you want something else. Is there a specific color you prefer? here are the options:

Well, between the t-shirt and the Youtube videos I've produced in the last couple of days... I may have hit my creativity quota for the year, but if Mersa gives me any more brilliant t-shirt ideas, I'll be happy to try again Grin

If you have any ideas or requests for another humorous sling-themed shirt Waxwing, I'd be happy to try my hand at another one. We few slingers around the world definitely need to advertise our hobby more, and making people laugh is a great way to spread the word.
