    How Do You Make a Custom Screen-printed Bodysuit?

    I know next to nothing about screen printing, so any tips, tutorials, or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    I know this much: it's not basic. I doubt YouTube would have anything figure-related, but if you type in something like "how to screen print" you could find some tutorials. Most of the things I have learned about customizing have been through regular tutorials that I "translate" into a way that would work for figures & dolls.
    If you are wanting to do it yourself to save money, I doubt you will. Screen Printing materials are not even close to cheap, even if you are doing block printing. Some things can be done yourself to save $, some things can't. That's my advice.

      I've seen where they print on fabric with a printer. I've never done it but there are YouTube instructional videos about it.

          Its not deadly complicated, but for figures, it requires a lot of prep. Unless you've got time and cash to spare, I'd go with Austin.
