I'm interested.  But, I would like to see the designs and know the cost.  Would you ship to the States?

Hi lads

Ok yep just waiting for the cost of the roll now. I have a sample print coming to me to see how the dpi looks. If its too pixilated theres no point doing it. Also I want to play with the material to see whats the best. Im thinking not a paper substrate but a more plastic material, this would be semi water resistant and make it easier to stick to the mounting board. Unfortunately the artwork as it is doesnt support being auto cut onto plastic parts so that ideas out the window.

As for shipping i dont see why it cant be shipped world wide, its only a roll but at 17 meteres long it s gonna be big and very heavy.

Hope to have something for you today.

Hi I'm sure most of us would like to have battle damage to some of the buildings so even if the pixels are a bit off this could be hidden with smoke damage to the covering as long as its possible to use an out door Matt varnish to seal the inks ,and stick it to something like 6mm exterior grade plywood.As for the widows could cut them out our self's.

This should be good. I am looking forward to seeing these. Just need to hunt down a suitable base material, plywood should be good, though B&Q may have some plastic sheet that will do the job.
