I will design high quality dtf artwork ready for printing


About this gig
Stop wasting money on designs that feel like plastic patches.
DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing is not the same as regular graphic design. If your file is too solid, the print will crack, peel, and make the shirt unbreathable. You need a designer who understands how ink, white underbase, and fabric interact.
I specialize in creating artwork specifically optimized for the DTF process. I focus on correct transparency, halftones, and edge refinement to ensure your final product feels soft and looks professional.
What you get:
- High-resolution files (300 DPI minimum)
- Proper background removal (no jagged white edges)
- Halftone processing for large blocky areas (crucial for soft hand-feel)
- Color calibration ready for CMYK + White printing
My workflow:
- Analysis: I review your concept or logo to see if it fits DTF limitations.
- Execution: I design with printability in mind, not just aesthetics.
- Final Check: I simulate the white layer to guarantee no errors during the ripping process.
Please Note:
- The Basic Package is strictly for simple text or clean logo tracing. It does not cover complex illustrations.
- For detailed artwork or streetwear aesthetics with multiple elements, please select the Premi

FAQ
My current logo/image is very low quality or blurry. Can you fix it?
Please contact me before ordering. While I can redraw/vectorize most logos, some images are too damaged to be saved. I need to see your file first to assess if it requires the Standard Package (redrawing) or if it's impossible to fix.
Will the design feel thick or like a 'plastic patch' on the shirt?
Not if you choose the Standard or Premium package. For large designs, I use halftones and engineered transparency (creating small holes in the design) to let the fabric breathe. If you want a solid block of ink, let me know, but I advise against it for comfort.
What exactly is included in a 'Revision'?
A revision covers minor adjustments to the existing design, such as changing colors, fonts, or shifting element positions. It does not cover a completely new concept or a fresh design from scratch. If you change your mind about the core idea, you will need to place a new order.
Will the printed colors look exactly like they do on my phone/monitor?
No. Screens use RGB (light) while printers use CMYK (ink). Some super-bright neon colors on a screen cannot be physically reproduced with standard DTF ink. I calibrate files to get the closest possible match, but a slight shift in vibrancy is physically normal and expected.
I didn't buy the Source File. Can I ask for it later?
You can, but it will cost extra as an add-on. The Source File (PSD/AI) is the editable master file. If you plan to modify the design yourself in the future, I highly recommend ordering the Standard or Premium package where it is included.
Do I get full commercial rights to the design?
Yes. Once the order is completed, you have full rights to print and sell the design. However, if you provide me with a logo or image that you do not own (e.g., a famous brand logo or copyrighted art), I assume no legal liability for your use of it.
I need a design for a specific shirt color (e.g., Black). Does that matter?
Yes, it is crucial. DTF printers use a white underbase. I need to know the fabric color so I can optimize the edges and shadows. If you plan to print on both black and white shirts, let me know so I can ensure the design works on both.
