Hey Hartley, Disco Machine here, former Pro Wrestling Guerrilla owner. Saw your post and had to reach out. First off, congrats on the NJPW shirt, that’s awesome.

I’ve been deep in branding and merch design for 30+ years, working with teams and talent to build identities that actually connect, not just fill space on a tee. More importantly, I know the business and what makes wrestling merch work.

If you want to collaborate and create something that really represents you (not just another shirt), I’d love to jump in. I already have a couple of concept directions in mind.

Here's my website: https://t.co/A3gw1XdDw7

DM me. Happy to share ideas or set up a quick call, whatever works for you.

‘From Concept to Composite: Building High-Impact Visuals in Photoshop’ featuring Michael Mondragon | @lawebprosgroup

Online Event: Tuesday, March 17, 2026 • 6:00 PM PST

Great design rarely starts with perfect assets. In this practical, demonstration-driven session, you’ll learn how to transform ordinary images into polished, professional visuals using real-world compositing techniques in Photoshop.

We’ll explore non-destructive workflows, precise masking, blend modes that actually matter, color grading for cohesion, and depth-building strategies that elevate your work beyond basic edits. You’ll also see how Generative AI can accelerate concept development and enhance environments without sacrificing control or craftsmanship.

Whether you’re creating visuals for the web, print, or marketing campaigns, this session will give you practical techniques you can apply immediately to produce stronger, more compelling imagery.
