I finally feel I can join the ranks of those that have posted here.

Here is our first Sim-Process print, thanks to Scott (Command-Z) for the artwork and the seps (money well spent).  It came out AWESOME!!

Everything through 225-S at 55 LPI, (would have put the base on 180 but my guy slipped and put it on the wrong one and I said just roll with it).

He laid it down UB(White), Yellow, Orange, Black... opted not to put the highlight white because we liked the darker tone it had.

I'm super proud of my guy with this print... they all look great and he was pumped as well.

It's amazing how one color (the black here) ties everything together.  It looks like poopoo with just the UB, yellow and orange... then the black comes down and BAM!  Beauty!

Nice Kevin, that really does look great.  I'd be proud of him too, he's come a long way in the past year since I met him.

They look even better on white or even charcoal, the color I chose for my brother and I's personal print (I had him do front prints for us since we weren't doing the left chest.)

Great looking print. Great looking red fish. Is that the entire design or did you have type going down on it on another screen?

I don't think you'd need a 180 on the base. I always suggest a 230 on a base myself for sim process.

I'll have Terry print you up one tomorrow when he comes... what size?

Great looking print. Great looking red fish. Is that the entire design or did you have type going down on it on another screen?

I don't think you'd need a 180 on the base. I always suggest a 230 on a base myself for sim process.

No Dan, just a left chest on the other side.  It's for a bait shop.

I only would have liked to have seen the UB on a 180 because we skipped the highlight white.  It would have helped the white pop out a bit more (compensate for less than perfect UB stroke ;) ).

Man that's slammin. Manual sim process is no easy feat!

Thanks!  Must be in the artwork/seps because Terry was super nervous but actually liked printing it... felt like it was pretty forgiving.
