Very cool. Wonder what it would look like with the doors open, kind of like the arms or legs.

I like that. I may have to incorporate it into the next version.

I'd pony up for a T-shirt. (Although, I really would like to see a version with the doors open...)

I bet that Jeff de la Rosa from motorswag.com would produce it if he got enough pre-orders.

I'm always up for some new MINI swag. Even more so if it sported such classy artwork.

Great idea - could also use Cafepress (http://www.cafepress.com) - plus they take CC and handle all the shipping and stuff.

No advance buys or order minimums...
Plus, the design could be on not just shirts but mousepads, hats, buttons, totes, anything.

I've used Cafepress for several projects - they hold up pretty good for the price. I made a shirt just for myself and put my truck on the back... it was pretty fun to have a professional-looking custom shirt like that!

No compensated endorsement, yadda, yadda - just trying to help this project out. I think it's an awesome image and would make for a cool wearable.

:smile: Hey, Joe! If you do go the tee shirt route, you'll need to do so in the Marketplace forum here on NAM!

I love the idea of printing it on unbleached cotton or hemp! Fantastic image and v.2 could be with the doors open!

Wow

I must say, I am overwhelmed by the enthusiasm. this site is better than my old days on the Z3 web.

By popular demand, my gallery contains the latest 'DaMini' graphic. It took a little while, but I finally got the doors to look good.

https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...=19046&cat=500

I will look into, and/or collaborate with anyone on T-shirts. (it seems a little odd, since I don't even own the car yet! )

I LOVE the "doors open" version (great idea, indimini!). PUHLEEZE work with one of the NAM vendors so we'll have a chance to wear you terrific graphic on a T-shirt... or whatever....

So you don't own a MINI!!??? If you created this design solely in response to the muse, . I think she's pleased.

If you created this as an expression of your own longing for a MINI.............. get thee to a MINI dealership!

Hey greast idea count me in for two shirts XXL Now the only other thing the T-Shirt needs is a title.


The sirt needs to include the "Da Mini" signature too right? I think so

[QUOTE] Now the only other thing the T-Shirt needs is a title.

Since the Miniskirt was named after the MINI by a 60's designer, how about calling this the MINISHIRT from a 15th Century Designer.
