The Ultimate Guide to Create T-shirt Mockups with Midjourney | ($$$ Sell Mockups on Etsy) 

not tried different body types

Thank you! 😃

Yes, soon

​@@BulkMockupCan you please do a video on how to make the t shirt models look more realistic and not air brushed.

you can't get different images of the same model unless its on the same image

You can use photoshop's neural filter to upscale. Or you can google. There are plenty of online upscaling tools available. P.S. We are also working on a tool that will allow to upscale images in bulk

Sure, will do one video for tumbler

thats the reason I decided against this method. I believe it's lying to customers and not a thing to do.

Thats an issue with digital mockups. It's not an accurate representation of the physical product and will never be.

Use a reference image with close up shot of fabric texture

@@BulkMockup nice. how do you do that?

They are obvious but I’ve just seen a couple of stores opened just within a couple of months that have had thousands of sales with them so I don’t think customers care especially if you list them cheap

Yes you can

no that wouldn't work, MJ would confuse the elements and blend them randomly

You are spot on. Things shall get better with each Midjourney version release

​@@BulkMockupIs there a way to get better color accuracy to match Bella Canvas t shirt colors?

There has been a fuss going about mockups on Etsy. Stores and listing are being suspended. No body has any clarity on it at the moment. I'd urge you to wait for few weeks and let the fuss settle down.

@@BulkMockup Thank you so much. Bye

good advice. this always goes in waves and when there is a lot of "fuss" etsy uses a broad stroke of a pen and will send out warnings or mass suspensions/terms. Even since Etsy launched their ipo, its been very cut throat marketplace with sellers reporting other sellers to try and gain a leg up on the competition. I'm sure their more algorithm based now when reviewing these cases, making it all the more sketchy as to what is proper and what isnt. We used to buckle down when these storms arouse and put limits on our shop to duck the stone throwing @@BulkMockup

Have you heard any updates?@@BulkMockup

Did you find a solution?

Not at the moment

excellent question and the same reason i'm playing around with ai atm. I can't find this tool outside of photoshop to create in a faster manner than using smart objects, place, save, change color, save etc etc. Were you able?

You could use photoshop Generative fill to add metal glare on the artwork. I haven't tried that myself though

Take an image of a heather grey shirt and use it as a reference image

@@BulkMockup whats command

​@@BulkMockupCan you please do a video of how to do this.

I'll create another video that will show how to do that.

Yes

You'll find the explore option in midjourney.com not in the discord server

There are other ai free tools you can try - playground.ai, bluewillow etc

This is true. AI generated images have no copyright in the US. Anyone could buy your listing and list it for sale in their shop.

​@@RailinXThat isn't my understanding, anything you create is your property providing the ai service you use Assign that right to you,

Ai generated content might not be. But if you edit it in Canva and tweak it won’t it be copyrighted

@@RailinXIf you look in the descriptions of listings already selling these it states you have no permission to sell them and Etsy will also shut your store down if they catch you using other peoples photos

Well before POD, people actually had their designs printed on the t-shirt and had them photographed. Then came the concept of Digital Mockups. When you place your design on the mockup file, you are in way misleading your customers, the actual print may and does vary from what you display with the mockups. But like you said. Many put a disclaimer that the actual product may vary in color and print. Similarly a store using AI mockups should put disclaimer.

Just to note, when you are using mockups from photos taken by storefronts that feature real life models actually wearing the physical t-shirt (not AI), you can have variations in color and fit. The storefront could be using filters on their photos, the shirts could also look different from monitor to monitor even without filters or editing. Also, depending on people's body sizes, the shirts are going to fit differently. A model wearing a size small or extra small, or even just sized down, will fit differently than someone of a different body type or a different shirt size. Also, you (and I mean this generally and not you specifically) could have the placement, or size, of your design positioned slightly differently on the mockup than how it appears when it is printed. I have personally seen mockups set to 13"x13", for example, that print smaller than what was uploaded to the print provider. And that's not even taking into account that most print providers scale down for smaller sizes. So, there are many variables at play here. And unless you're ordering all of the shirts yourself and taking photos of the same size on the same model with the model's specific measurements provided, there's going to be variations between what you see on the mockup and what you receive in the physical product and how it fits you. I don't think that anyone would say that is a scam. You're doing your best to provide an accurate representation, and I believe the people selling AI mockups are doing their best to provide an accurate representation as well. It is literally the same. Just use your eyes... If the mockup looks bad, or too different from the color or style of the shirt, don't buy that mockup. It's easy as that. Compare the color to other shirts of that color if you have questions. I don't think anyone posting AI mockups are being malicious or trying to mislead you. And honestly, you'd be surprised with how realistic these AI mockups can be. Also, a bonus to the AI mockups, it's presumably easy to ask the creator for requests. Like if I need a mockup of a woman in a bella canvas yellow shirt at a birthday party, and none of the storefronts with physical models have what I need, then I'm out of luck. OR I could ask someone with a good AI mockup shop, and they can put it together in a short amount of time. Times are changing. Technology is changing. Use your eyes buy whatever it is you fancy and have that be that. No need to demonize anyone or call them scammers. They aren't forcing you to buy their mockups. Also, a lot of the shirts on Placeit aren't brand specific or color specific either. Some are.. but most aren't. So, you find what you can that best represents your product. Sellers that use Placeit mock ups aren't trying to be disingenuous either. And Placeit isn't scamming anyone.

ACTUALLY, the AI mockup sellers are providing a more accurate product than POD sellers. Because you see that ACTUAL EXACT photo of the mockup that you you are going to receive. So, it's really the POD sellers that are the ones that can be disingenuous! (I'm a POD seller).

@@crayonseatflesh 😮

@@crayonseatflesh Thank you for writing this explanation! These are the same thoughts I had. I've been selling POD tshirts on Etsy for a couple years using mockups. I've never had one customer say that the shirt doesn't look like the picture. I've been careful to buy mockups that are as close to the correct color of the actual shirt as possible and to not buy mockups that aren't of that shirt style.
