But first, here is a little crash course in deciding your options… Please note: The formats below apply to traditional art only, as opposed to digital art. Digital images are sent by email but can be scanned to disk & posted. Typical Sizes: A4 210mm X 297 mm This size is most popular for the minimal Head & Shoulders A3 297mm X 420 mm Most popular for Couples, Small Groups or Full Body Caricatures A2 420 mm X 594 mm Small poster size and therefore is most popular for large groups, such as sporting teams, clubs & organisations, work staff & wedding parties etc. A1 594 mm X 840 mm Large poster size and most recommend if something is required like a large group which is to be displayed eg. high on a wall so needs to be seen from some distance and the detail is important. Subject Matter: Head & Shoulders This is most economical but can still be enhanced with some clever Titles, Tag Lines or Captions, and even Word or Thought balloons like you see in comics. Full Body Particularly useful if there is to be any emphasis on a hobby, sport, theme or particular features in the background. Couples Great idea for wedding gifts & stationery or engagement presents. Groups Of 3 or more on an A3 or a complete club on Poster Size (A2 or even A1) Additional Items Anything can be added and are charged additionally on merit. This can include backgrounds, dress themes, anything. As a general rule, a Head & Shoulder price can have (included in the quote) Captions, Titles & Word or Thought bubbles, and a Full Body price can also include one hobby or theme. For prices on popular categories of items click here Colour Ways Black & White The more economical and (arguably) more suitable to a “cartoon” style portrait. Also includes halftones. Although this option could really be any colour you like, as long as it’s the one colour and its tones. For an extra price this can also be rendered on coloured paper of your choice. Black & White with spot colour An economical way to add that extra “zip” to a Black & White caricature. Good suggestions are lipstick colour on a blonde lady or blue eyes on a toddler. Great impact with a black & white background.  DuotoneSimilar to the above but a second shade of colour. This is useful if you’d like a sepia effect or a different colour wash for the background. This can also be achieved by a coloured paper or canvas. For example click here The most “razzle-dazzle” and visually impressive. Up to 100% mark-up on a black & white.
