I am just decorating my front room and am toying with the idea of having a couple of nice framed game prints on the wall. I was wondering if any of you have done this and where you got them from? I'm going to have a browse of ebay, but of you have any better suggestions feel free to let me know :)
 
I've looked on the Bay before and it's a bit hit n miss really. got some 73" banner printed canvas for BF3. Looks awesome but the Ink isn't the best... I sneezed and a bit of spray caught near the corner, a few little wet dots... "easy I'll just dab them" but nope... it's left water marks/rings there on that poster :( (good thing I have another 2 of them xD).

The other thing I've done is make my own xD found a decent game image on the webz, dump it into adobe illustrator, select how many A4 poster parts you ant to print over (I went for a nice 3x3 :) ) and then put printer on best :D looks pretty good tbf considering my printer is poop :D need to re do it but get a set of those pvc boarderless poster frames (basically a sheet of pvc on backing board) and properly mount them to the walls :D


Could always be really artsy and buy a canvas and do it yourself ;) If you're feeling ambitious and the design isn't too complicated (think minimal/ outline/block designs)
 
If you wanted something a little different check out the charity drawing thread in GD.

He does some very good art work and some of it is game related. Might be worth asking him in there! :)
 
Cheers all for the suggestions so far, I will have a look through them :)
I am after buying something that is already printed and getting it framed or buying it ready framed, but I am also open to suggestions.

Thanks

always wanted to do this in university and print a poster on the plotters that could do A0...maybe bigger.... and it was a continuous roll of paper so could have had mahoosive banners!!!! but...... it was pretty expensive per print (A0) that and I think they would have banned me from ever printing again if I used a printer designed for cad lines to do a full blown picture using up all the ink I imagine xD
