Overview

The creator showcases the entire, multi-stage process of making a highly intricate tie-dye t-shirt. He begins by explaining the inspiration, then demonstrates each step: creating a scrunch image design, dyeing it, washing it out, adding a 20-point mandala and pleated spiral, tying it all up again, and finally adding a honeycomb pattern. The video concludes with the final reveal of the finished shirt, which features a person appearing to pull back a gray, static-like layer to reveal a vibrant, psychedelic world underneath.

Transcript

This might be one of the most intricate pieces that I've ever made. It's inspired by graffiti artist Martin Watson. That was the last step all tied up, and I'm gonna show you how I made the whole thing. Worst step was a scrunch image design with a pleated spiral in it. After that was all scrunched and tied with kite string, I went in and applied the dye. After I finished up with this one, I let it batch for a whole day, wash it out, and started on the next step. I wanted this piece to include every style I do pretty much, so I did a 20 mandala, scrunch shimmers design, pleated spiral, and a honeycomb. This is the second step all tied up right here. After that was dyed and batched, wash it out, and then lined up the front and back for the last step, which was the honeycomb. And tier it is. I'm calling this piece the reveal. Altogether, it took me around twenty five hours of hands on tying and dyeing. Let me know what you think.
