Back in the Day I made several Beru Revue Tee Shirts of my very own (and one for Johnny Sacks) by using Deka Tee Shirt paints and hand painting them (you apparently could thin this stuff out and run it through an airbrush as well).

There was some plasticizing material in the paint, so after you were done painting the design and it had dried for a couple hours, you then ironed the image with a cloth over it and it would fuse to the fabric.

I have no idea if the paints are still available, though.

You might be able to hook up on a silk-screening kit through A.C. Moore or Michael's Crafts.
