How to Create a Realistic T-Shirt Mockup in Photopea 

Thanks for the kind words! I'm really glad that you found this video useful, and thanks for checking out my other videos too 🙂

Glad you like it!

Very kind of you to say! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you think so! Thanks 👍

Thank you! Cheers!

You're welcome!

Thanks! I appreciate it

To make things easier doing this, i'd recommend having it split out as 3 layers - one for the main text, and the other two for each swish. Then you can position, resize/reshape the swishes independently from the main text quickly an easily.

Thank you for the kind comment! And your English is fine :)

Good suggestion! I will add it to my list of ideas for future videos :)

Hi, if you follow the tutorial you can replace the design / graphic with whatever you like so you can customise it to how you like :)

Thanks!

Hi :) Absolutely you can! Start by googling 'free swash fonts' and have a look at what you like, and download a couple to try out. Like from here: www.1001fonts.com/swash-tail-fonts.html save the folder of fonts on your computer somewhere. Then, in Photopea go to the 'Character' window, and click on the font name in the top left to expand the current font list. Click the 'Load' button and find where you saved the font on your computer to load. Most swash fonts i've used in the past act like regular fonts when typing, but you normally access the 'swashes/tails' by using the square bracket keys. Hope this helps!

@@photopeapro Oh, thank you for such a detailed reply! I tried to find my way earlier and it didnt work out. I'll try to follow your tips. Thanks again!

You're welcome! I'm afraid you can't, as Photopea currently only supports RGB workspace. Maybe that is something they will change in the future though.

Okay thank you do you know if there is a way to print after design from photopea in vivid colors with CMYK??

@@EJ3.16 Well, how vivd the colours are would depend on the particular CMYK profile... but the gamut is far smaller than RGB, so any colours that are particularly vivid will likely look a bit faded once Converted. You would have to use another piece of software to convert... can I ask why exactly you want them in CMYK to begin with? If you are getting some professionally printed, the place where you are sending them should handle the RGB to CMYK process as part of the job. Also, CMYK isn't just one thing... depending on what country you are in, and the specifications of particular printing companies, there will be specific profiles of CMYK to use... it's not a 'one size fits all' colour space. In my day job, i'm a retoucher for a Cosmetics company, and we have a huge amount professionally printed all the time... and we still have an RGB workflow - our printing company takes care of the conversions etc. So that's a long winded way of saying, personally I wouldn't worry about CMYK, unless you are specifically told that you MUST provide files in that format. Hope this helps!

@@photopeapro thank you once again to take your valuable time and help, well I use photopea to do designs and then I do sublimation my printer it’s a epson f170 but since photopea only works with RGB and my printer uses CMYK colors are not coming same as I choose on my designs.......

Well, things to check - if you make the selection first and then create an adjustment layer, it should automatically apply the live selection to the new adjustment layer's layer mask. If you have created the adjustment layer first however and then your selection, you will need to click on the layer mask and fill with white (with the selection still live). This will add the shape of the selection to the adjustment layer mask. If it is still not working, then i'm not sure what it could be without more info.... possibly a glitch? (not too uncommon for Photopea!) Glad you enjoyed the video :)

​@@photopeapro Thanks so much for your reply. I was making the selection and creating a new layer with the new selection and just then i tried applying the effects. When I did what you said at the beginning of your comment, make the selection and then apply the effects, it worked.Thanks so much.

@@videosaleatorios9225 No problem! Glad it worked for you :)

I do have plans on some more mock up videos, on different objects like boxes, drink cans / bottles etc. Hopefully you will see some different techniques in them! Using smart objects makes it quick and easy to change the design on mockups once they are all set up, but the process of getting the initial mock up 'template' looking right can be quite a bit of work. But having said that, I could definitely re-visit this and simplify it a bit for sure!

Glad it’s not just me. I don’t think this is for beginners.

Hi there Jane, thanks for the question. When you create a new document, in the top left side of the screen it features the DPI number - you can just manually type 300 in this box. Alternatively, if you already have a document created, go to the Image menu, them Image Size. You can manually type what ever resolution you need there also. As far as I am aware, there are no functional differences between the free and paid version of Photopea - paying simply removed the ads at the side of the screen. And it goes without saying that apart form the actual DPI of the document, it needs to be a suitable dimension to cover off the design itself, so that it won't have to be scaled up at any point after you have worked on it. Hope this makes sense, and works for you :)

@@photopeapro thank you for your reply Gareth.. I tried both of your suggestions but unfortunately, the dpi still remains at 96. I must be doing something wrong but I have no clue what it could be.. If you can come up with any more solutions that'd be great.. but I'm not expecting miracles.. lol.. as really I tried both of these. I had my pixel sizes at 2400 x 3000..

@@jane.c.c Hi Jane. Hmm that's very odd. I can't think of a reason why it won't let you change the resolution. Maybe this is a good one for you to add to the official Photopea support forum: github.com/photopea/photopea If I think of anything else in the mean time, of course i'll let you know.

@@photopeapro thank you. I also tried unticking the resample button.. but that didn't work either.. Anyway.. thank you very much for your efforts.. very kind of you..

@@photopeapro just to let you know.. i clicked a template in photopea and it automatically gave me the 300 dpi.. however.. when i looked up the properties in my windows laptop.. it was still 96.. so obviously the problem lies with my laptop..

Thanks for the comment! That is hopefully something I will do in the future - so watch this space :)

@@photopeapro i will ❤️
