Down in the T-shirt mines…

I spent today designing T shirts, and am making decisions regarding the silk screen process. Silkscreen looks great; it uses FLAT (“spot”) colors; and it costs more for every color used. More colors = significantly more expensive shirt, since every color gets a separate screen press.

So I’ve got two approaches:
1. colorful shirts using 6 to 8 colors = EXPENSIVE
2. one-color shirts (using gold in my examples) = CHEAP

What do you think? I’m working in a vacuum here and need some feedback.
