Here is my most recent and single biggest thing... the final size is 8 x 12 feet...6 strips on my 30 inch VersaCamm mounted to Sintra and screwed to the wall.Won't win any awards but I had fun doing it.

Well done. It is clear, well printed and finished. Something you should be real proud of.

looks great! just 1 think that came to mind when first seeing it was that the panel lines are easily noticed. im new to printing and is that normal? is there actually small white lines or is that just the photo? thanks and good job.

Looks Great! Gotta love the Coast Guard! What dpi is this printed with Photguy?

Thanks for the kind words...yes there is one seam that didn't line up perfectly...the material drifted about an eighth on the laminator on both pieces and rather than saw off image area I left it.In retrospect I would now cut it off.

The main image wasn't great to begin with and at size is about 75 dpi. the smaller inset images were of much higher quality and way sharper to begin with and at size are 150 dpi

I was also afraid of doing something that large on a 30 inch printer...I surprised myself!

I assume they were happy with the resolution? Too many customers expect too much for lower res pictures. Hopefully you had something good to work with!

The smaller images were great,the main image wasn't so good but Photoshop is a wonderful thing!

It is also 12 feet across,so at viewing distance it looks just fine.They were very happy as was the rep from Mustang.

I'll have to drive out there and take a look at it.
