Title: Side-art by SlammedNiss
Post by: SlammedNiss on October 19, 2006, 12:27:00 am
Well, after a long hiatus of not being able to log in, I can finally post the pic of the Galaga sideart I printed out. This should give a good example of what I am able to print out.

You can click on the pics for a higher-resolution version.

BTW, this particular sideart is printed out on a matte-finish vinyl.

well i'm thinking that you had better only be using tape in those pictures...otherwise painting the side is going to be a major pain in the ass ;)
seriously however, it looks pretty damn good, what kind of printer do you have?

actually, I used the vinyl's adhesive side to stick it. I'll peel it off one of these days. I just like how it looks for now, and it  kinda gives me the motivation to move forward on the project.

Printer is a PrismJet Extra. I can print up to about 36" wide w/out a contour cut, and up to about 27" w/ a contour cut.

BTW, this particular sideart is printed out on a matte-finish vinyl. We also printed it out on glossy vinyl, but the vinyl is too soft, and mars the image easily.

Lemme know what ya all think.....

Looks awesome!  I'd take the matte over glossy anyway.

Worked out a price plan yet?

What do ya have? It really depends on size.

I'll do the first few sets for relatively cheap, just to get my name out.

Send me the artwork, and lets see what we can do for ya.

I just got my work in from Brandon and it looks great.  He worked with me via pm and got exactly what I was looking for.  One of the things the really impressed me was his ability to precut the art that I wanted, meaning that I didn't have to cut the white off the edge.  For my particular peice there was alot of white, and it would have taken forever.  This option was not available at any of the main printing places.  Second the price was great it was less that a 1/3 or what I was quoted elsewhere.  I highly recommend him, I will post some pictures after I have them up.

BUMP:

Haven't frequented this site in some time. A lot has happened in my life in the last couple of years that has kept me from being at work.

Anyways, I am still available to do full prints of your custom sideart. I am NOT a graphic artist, so please don't ask me to provide the artwork for you. This in hand keeps the cost low for you. All prints will be done on glossy white vinyl with a clear over-laminate to protect it, and contour cut as well. We have upgraded our printer and can now print up to 64" wide and whatever length you need.

Please PM me or email me at slammedniss at gmail dot com for pricing.
