FAQ

Product Materials

How are the images produced?

All the images in the gallery are created using 3D software to model, texture and light three dimensional scenes and then render out a still image using a virtual camera.  The resulting images are rendered at 300 dpi to preserve high detail at close inspection.

What is an Acrylic print?

The print you receive is constructed from a rigid backing board on to which a high-resolution photographic print is mounted and then covered with a layer of crystal clear Acrylic glass.


What are the different finish options?

  • Print under Acrylic Glass (Gloss)
  • Print under Acrylic Glass (Matte)
  • HD Print under Acrylic Glass (HD Gloss)

Gloss

The computer graphic images are laser printed on Fuji Crystal DP II Paper mounted under 2mm Acrylic Glass with a Gloss finish, backed with an Aluminium Dibond backing (two sheets of aluminium with a polyethylene filler).  The Fuji paper has a good colour gamut and contrast range to cover most scenes adequately.

Matte

The computer graphic images are laser printed on Fuji Crystal DP II Paper mounted under 2mm Acrylic Glass with a Matte finish, backed with an Aluminium Dibond backing (two sheets of aluminium with a polyethylene filler).  The Fuji paper has a good colour gamut and contrast range to cover most scenes adequately.  The matte finish is a high-quality, non-reflective finish that disperses light to reduce bright highlight reflections.

HD Gloss

The computer graphic images are laser printed on Fuji Crystal Professional Archive Maxima Paper mounted under 2mm Acrylic Glass with a Gloss finish, backed with an Aluminium Dibond backing (two sheets of aluminium with a polyethylene filler).  The Fuji paper has an excellent colour gamut for the reproduction of vivid and highly saturated colour and broad contrast range to handle deep blacks well.
