How to make 28mm scale portrait paintings

[Gotthammer]

I've often found the print resolution unsatisfactory or get too much colour bleed and it's not really something worth investing in a more expensive printer over. Ever have any issues with this?

[eldargal]

Nope, I can see how it could happen though. Perhaps making a sheet of portraits you want and have them printed at one of those pay to print places (do you have those in Oz? I'd assume yes, seems like they woudl be fairly ubiquitous). I found paper matters more, regular printing paper is acceptable but not excellent. A good quality glossier paper tends to be better, hold the colour nicely.

[Gotthammer]

Yeah, I'll just stick with freehand, can't be arsed going out and trying to find somewhere that sells nice paper. We do have those printing places, but none anywhere convenient to me.


Also, someone really needs to buy you a digital camera for christmas or something.

Whatever works for you is best. I just found this way to be quite fast and satisfactory and there was considerable oohing and aahing at my club so I thought I'd post it in case it would be of some use to someone.

Also Gott, yeah, I would like to get her one. Whether she uses it is another matter.

Gotta try this one out.

p.s. She would just sell the camera and buy models.

Oh no, she'd take pictures of her frog whilst she's drunk. She does love that frog.
