AK-47/74 Build Party 2015 - It's Official
- Thread starter crono1000
- Start date
Here's what I've come up with for a solid end-result design... forget the rest - These are pretty damn awesome looking (at least my wife, my oldest son, and I think so haha). And if we get 20 of them they will only be about $18 each (plus shipping), 15 of them would be about $20 each. Proceeds from the fundraiser can help pay for a portion as well once we have all orders in, and can see how much we would be paying. We could only have to pay around $14 a piece perhaps. These are Gildan Ultra Cotton T-Shirts too, so they aren't junk either.
For some reason the first pic is blurry... Just pretend it is as sharp as the other three (because it is in the original pic)

Those are nice
I just typed a smile and then a big smile... I had no idea they would look so damn gay after I hit enter. First one looks like a damn fairy and all I did was type : and ) ... I give up. Party is off. I'm trading all my guns in for designer hand bags, and hanging out with Bruce Jenner from now on.
Hahaha... Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of that one either. Not knowing what people were into though, I figured I'd try a few different ideas. Everything on earth seems to have a shirt with the date and arc lettering on it, so I figured I'd toss it out there. Let's just pretend it didn't happen... Haha

I dig the final version, I'm down for a tan for $20.
Ordered my receiver today from Childers. Just need me some rivets now. Can't wait. I'll definitely buy a tan shirt as well.

Just a heads up for anyone who ordered from Childers: Their receivers are built custom so lead time is 4-6 weeks. If you are thinking of ordering one I would do it soon just in case that lead time is a conservative estimate...

Car shoot is in June, and I believe Spring Trigger is in April... At least that's what its been for the last couple years anyways.Interested in shirts.

Yeah I was worried about the Excruciathlon.
I get months mixed up . I forgot April is "4" lol.
I'm still in and want a shirt .
Well there ya go... Date still looks good.
I'll get a more solid situation on shirts soon. Set a date I needs funds and sizes by, and let everybody get on that. I really need a solid number on who wants a shirt though, so I can see how much I can use from the fundraiser to cover them, and get the price set in stone for everybody.
Looks like about 2-3 weeks from order to ship.
And I would assume its because nobody steps up to take care of it.

Call me a pussy, but I kinda just like the back of the shirt with the bolt face and wording. I'd just put that on the front. I think I'd wear it a lot less with the AK on the front. Sheep are skittish and I don't like to draw attention. My 2 cents.
Having said that, I'd be in for one green one anyway.

Well, I can look into possibly doing two designs. One with gun, one without... I'll check into what I have for options, without drastically raising prices or anything like that.
For the pussies. Haha
I thought about that, but due to centering restrictions on the back, it just worked (and looked) better the way I made it. I planned on calling them to see about custom placement options that aren't available online. Even with the bolt on the back, I would want it further up than its shown placement. That, or I'd have like it to be bigger overall.
I know its impossible to please everybody, but I am attempting to do as much as I can in that direction.
I also know the meaning of KISS though - Keep It Simple, Stupid. And that is something I've always maintained when taking on projects - especially ones based on art and design work. I'm sure your wife could attest to that, bigblue. As you said this is what she does.

That's true, I'd more readily wear a tan one with just the bolt.
