So.. You want a dope poster but dont know where to find one and cant afford it?

Alright, so here's what you need:

Around 25 Pages of Photo paper ( For the shiny, nice effect.. Normal paper can be used, but eh.. )

Alot of colour ink, or black in white if thats your style ( Normal paper works best in this case )

Roughly 6 Pieces of black bristol board ( Black looks best IMO, but colour is up to you )

Okay, now:

Find a really sick picture you want to be a poster and post it here/PM me it

Tell me how big you want the poster to be

Then, PM me your email. From there I'll email you the file you need to print the poster.

Final product?

Indeed, these look so much better in person too... Each section is made up of tiny little dots, and a sick picture in colour on photo paper would look unreal.

PM me if you want it done faster, its easier for me.

its cool dude to do that for people but i think it would be easy for people to do it for themselves on this website and then there you don't need to like send it to them or anything

rasterbation is also another similar site but it turns the pic into heaps of dots and you can blow it up super large

Thats what this is, you just cant see the dots because my pic isnt zoomed in enough. Like I said, looks alot better in person haha.

No, I found the obey pic off google, I know they have a lot of really sick art so I looked it up and low and behold, lots of sick art, and I thought that pic would look really good, and it does.

MAKE SURE YOU PM ME:

Size you want ( In metres, or CM if its pretty small )
Colour, or black and white
Your email

If you dont give me all of that, I'm not going to be doing these for you. Make it easy for me, and you get a sick poster.

since and ink cartridge is about 25 bucks for my printer and the gloss paper will probably run 5-10 bucks

were looking at 30-35 bucks toward a poster, i think you can do better and it will be way more legit

Wow this is a pretty fucking awesome idea.  I just tried to do it with a file on blockposters.com and it looks super pixilated on the pages I'm supposed to print.  Is that normal or is the file I used too small?
