hi
i am thinking about printing my 3d artwork
theres alot of settings that i am not sure about like dpi
do i just let the printer print them on auto ? or your own settings whats best ?i am going to go out and look at printers tomorrow for 3d artwork and looking at all
the paper that you can print on not sure what to look for
thanksYep your a mine of information Miss Pleasures. Thanks for that comprehensive rundown on printing renders.
What about if someone wants to display their artwork on a really big 4K TV which are so popular these days? Like a 93" or 98" one. Would you follow that same DPI rule or would you need to render at an extreme size for clarity?The only thing that I print is some images that I use for my own wall calendar. Generally, I'm using assets like generally don't use for my art.
i am thinking to put a few over the computer and gaming area
maybe 2 big prints and some smaller ones tooI will say also that I have a pretty good inkjet myself, but I have found that honestly getting artwork printed by a 3rd party is quite efficient and cheaper in the long run if you are just wanting something higher quality.
I've now had 2 full size posters printed, 4 mini movie posters, a small hard back book with just 5x6 shots of my artwork (although I will say the book is not the best lol), a 2023/2024 Calendar, and I have also had a set of Tarot Cards with a custom printed cheap slide box.
The cost of these things where I have had them done have been relatively cheap. The biggest thing you will have to worry about when sending things off to a printer is what your wanting to print. If it's anything with nudity, sex acts, licensed material, spoofing artwork, or celebrity-like realness there is always a chance that the company will not print it. So it always pays to research a bit about the company if you have those sort of things in mind, usually they will have information listed on the types of things they will or won't print.
I enjoy making artwork and some of it I'm really happy with to the point I think it's nice to have actual physical copies of. It's definitely worth looking into.
Thanks for the recommendation, I'll save this thread. Although, I never considered printing work. I originally got into the Poser/Daz swing of things to use it as an aid for painting traditional portraits. It's handy when you don't have a model, or your model has made a pose you'd like to alter (recreate it in Daz). But printing isn't a bad idea since I no longer have the space or state of mind to paint (most goes into the trash and not on walls).
i will try on my 4k tv and my vava projector
the family is to biz watching a movies now i will see what it looks like on a usb
i use to use cds of my artwork long agoI do. One of my side sources of income is creating birthday cards and other such paraphernalia for kids birthday parties and themed kids clubs or school parties. When I have to buy a new printer, I of course have to recalibrate everything and do multiple test prints to set up my monitor so I see what the printer prints but that's generally several years apart.
