I had an interest thread a LONG time ago for Engineered by Firefly Coach Works t-shirts based on the ship makers plates used in "Serenity" and it sort of fell through. I've re-worked the art to be a little different, I like the worn look as it fits Serenity (the ship) much more.

Here's the design on a grey shirt which I think looks the nicest.


The aim would be for the shirts to cost $19.95 plus shipping and you could choose from a variety of colours if you like (again, I think grey has a really nice look to it ;)).

I'd need to have at least 12 people on board. Anyone interested? Send me an email (john at name-brand dot net) or post here.

This will give an idea of colour choices. Some colours may be removed, some may be added.


UPDATE AUG 13 2008
Sorry for the delay everyone. As a result of a bunch of things going on, I wound up asking a friend to take over this shirt run. Kurt from www.kurtsshirts.com will be making these, the good news is that he makes great shirts, and they'll actually cost less both for the shirt and the shipping since he's in the US. So, without further a due, here's the ordering info.

Here are the ordering instructions:

Regular t-shirts
Small - XLarge = $18.95 ea. plus shipping (see below)
2X - 4X = $20.95 ea. plus shipping (see below)

Colour Chart:

(color of shirt may vary slightly from color of swatch)

ALSO

Women's Babydoll Tees

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BABY TEES ONLY COME IN 3 COLORS: BLACK, SMOKE AND CHOCOLOATE BROWN
Small - XLarge = $20.95
2X = $22.95

Shipping within the US & Canada:
$4.95 for 1 shirt, add $2 for each additional shirt you order to the shipping total

International Shipping:
$7.95 for 1 shirt, add $3 for each additional shirt (if there is an overage, I will refund the difference)

I like it. I would buy one for Dad or a guy friend, but I'm a girly shape, and I like girly shaped t shirts. Got any?

I would like the design better with FIREFLY in a different font. Something about it just doesn't feel right to me. The distressed look is definitely moving your design in the right direction. Keep up the good work!!

I think I like the font. It has a vintage feel. Although, maybe something more Western would be good, referencing the wild west feel of the show.

Although, on second thought, that might be cheezy.

But...that's the font used on so many Firefly things, including some of the ship label plates on Serenity.

Actually I had meant to mention that I should be able to offer these in woman's styled shirts as well. Should be the same price but it's something I need to look into.

Yes, the font and artwork are from the ship plates that were used in Serenity. I had recreated the art based on photos of the real ones.
