where to get my digital art printed??

[Tad]

Hey so where would/should I go to get some photoshop digital paintings that i've done printed out?

Mostly ink work just colored in with photoshop or painted from scratch in ps.

I've used kinko's back in the day for some hs stuff,
but I figure there must be some higher quality options by now right?

I remember seeing a gallery of printed digital art and it looked really really cool!
no idea how they had it printed though.

lmk any ideas
thanks

I would suggest anyone doing Giclee prints.

I ended up going to a place locally
for a 18x12 it was only like 3 bucks.
quality was pretty good.

but I have to admit, the colors turned out quite different from the original file.
Though not as bad as my home canon printer. But just a lot more saturated/dark.

I'd like to do giclee but it's SO expensive,

do you think it would solve this discrepancy in color?
thanks.

Have you thought about scaling down to something like 11x17 instead? A3 cardstock is 11x17 and will cost you a lost less per unit than 18x12 I imagine. I get my 11x17's for 70 to 90 cents a pop typically.

Also, you might consider a local printer. A quality, reliable small scale printer is hard to find, but if you can find one, they're worth their weight in gold when it comes to how your business is handled in the short and long term.
