Diodes Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I like sewing and I like OCR so I decided to remix some OCR T-shirts to promote the site at conventions. Here's a "remix" of a plain OCR white T-shirt I made, that I wore to perform at the OCR panel at SITACon 08: I wore the black one for the live performance at the OCR Panel at Otakon 08. I think there may already be pictures of it somewhere, but here are more pics: Post your own modded OCR gear!! Quote
Geoffrey Taucer Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 that's.... actually pretty sweet Quote
Jenz Drake Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 OMG, FINALLY female version shirts!! haha We def. need to get girls more involved in the community and this is the perfect way to start! I'd be interested in buying some like that! Quote
Zephyr Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Very nicely done, I love the criss-cross design on the back. Quote
Kizyr Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 I remember the second one from Otakon. I actually like the first one more, mostly because of the criss-cross design on the back. My accomplishments in the sewing department end at being able to mend my socks and pants. I don't think I'd be able to do anything besides destroy an OCR shirt. KF Quote
Artesu Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Excuse my girl moment... Those are sooooo cute!!!! I totally want one. Quote

Dyne Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Funny Meteo, funny, but uh, just one problem, methinks her boyfriend wouldn't like that. Anyway...awesome job Amy, they look great, and I bet there's a market out there, so DJP, I say go for it, you got my vote (now, someone get me a girlfriend, and I'll buy her a couple.) Quote
Dhsu Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Hotness. (The NWG smiley is actually kinda creepy isn't he...) Quote
Meteo Xavier Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Funny Meteo, funny, but uh, just one problem, methinks her boyfriend wouldn't like that. The shovel swings both ways, my little droogie. Since the "spaghetti incident" last year, I've taken steps to learn all about boyfriend self-defense, whether its a douchebag thinking I'm getting friendly with his bitch, or its a woman covered in spaghetti, getting it on my carpet, trying to escape a 300 lb fucknut who microwaved the damn cat.

Gollgagh Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 (The NWG smiley is actually kinda creepy isn't he...) yes dshu, i believe that has been established Quote

Ramaniscence Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Anyway, back on topic: Nice shirt! I'm not too sure I'm interested in that style for myself, but I was wondering how much some of that talent would cost me? Quote
Meteo Xavier Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Except he's a judge on the site. As a homosexual man, I can solicit and sexually harass any adult female I want and get away with it. Now if it were Wolf Blitzer and HIS boyfriend were a judge on the board, then maybe I'd be in the wrong, thats just how it works. Otherwise, tough titties. Further more, when are we going to get Ocremix underwear and bandanas? Quote

I don't know about this... "spaghetti incident", however...uhm...wtf? Also, I think a lot of the ladies (the ones that are actually ON the internet) would appreciate the styles that Amy has come up with. Hey, I'm all for it! Quote
Diodes Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 Thanks for all the kind words about the designs! I had no idea there would be so much interest in wearing the styles. Though it shouldn't surprise me; the reason why I came up with the idea was because of a lack of female OCR t-shirt styles. I hadn't even thought about making the t-shirts for sale. The problem with sewing projects like this is that it's rarely cost-effective to sell them. The white t-shirt with all the crazy straps probably took me something like 10 hours to make. If I wanted to be paid even just mininum wage, the labor alone would cost something like $65, which I don't think is reasonable for a tank top. But maybe I could come up with simpler designs that don't take as long to make. Or we could convince OCR to make some fitted tees and tank tops for ladies!! Quote
ftninja Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Tanks and fitted tees would be nice, but i'm one of those girls who wears small men's t-shirts. Diotrans I like your designs, they're really cute. Maybe you could do some distressed designs? I've seen someone who took a shirt, cut at the seams on the sides and then basically tied it all together, kind of like those raggedy blankets? Am I reaching here? Quote
Meteo Xavier Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 Wow this is one hell of a topic resurrection. I don't even remember writing the rest of that stuff. Quote
PROTO·DOME Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 I don't even remember writing the rest of that stuff. I love it though.Tell me more of this 'spaghetti incident'. Quote
