I'll bet Poorsche914 can help if you decide to redo. They're cool art!
BOT...(Back on track) Are the cars and speeds of today just too much for a 914 to compete in the 24 hour now?? What about Sebring 12 hour or other big races today? |

I'm a graphic designer by trade myself, so that's saying something; I'm kind of a snob that way. :-) It's a bit confusing what they are going for, with the translation and stuff. .. maybe $90? http://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-163...-alfa-romeo-_JM Nathan, We should team up and make some of our own and undercut him. I know his shipping cost to the US are at least $20/order. Paul We should all team up and work together (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) o....been in graphics since 1981 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)..out growing my home studio...lets get a place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) dot matrix (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) That's the hurdle right there, posters cost a lot to print, or I should say large format printers are really pricey. I can only go to 13" by whatever on mine. Would cost around $50 to get something printed poster sized like from here https://www.megaprint.com/order2/largeformat_order.php Other issue is quality. Best case scenario, with the original negative 35mm film, the car filling the picture, you get a 914 35mm wide x 24mm tall, scanned at 3000dpi max, printed out at 300 dpi, you get a final output at good resolution of 13" wide x 10"highfor the car. You could stretch it to 150dpi and get a good sized car but it would be grainy. Large format camera and film scanner, anyone?
