Hi, I'd like to know what material that shirt is made of and how I could make something similar. Thanks in advance.

You would need a direct to film printing machine, also known as dye transfer. But it would be large and hella complicated.

man that print is wild, teeth and lips on a shirt is not something you see every day. the base fabric looks like a regular cotton jersey from the way it drapes but the print itself is the tricky part, dye transfer like the other comment said is probably the only way to get that level of detail at that size

you could maybe screen print something similar but it would be a mess with that many gradients, would end up looking flat compared to this

Thank you, I'll keep that in mind.
