Step 5Blockposters.com baby!
I love Blockposters.com!
You upload a photo, tell them how big you want it by specifying how many pieces of paper wide you want it, and then you can instantly download a .pdf file that only needs to be printed and it becomes a tiled poster!
Great for not only making huge murals, but in this case we will use it to print out a 1 to 1 master we will draw our picture from.
Keep in mind the final drawing will be on an 18" by 24" piece of paper, and you may not want it to go all the way up to the edge. If you want a slight border around it, you may need to tweak your master image a little first before you upload it to blockposters.com. Trial and error will be your guide.
For this picture, i am going to tell it that I want it to be 2 pieces of landscape letter paper wide. I think that will make a nice-sized picture. On their website you can see a nice graphic representation of how big your picture will be once it is tiled, and it also tells you your dimensions so they take a lot of the guesswork away.
When you are satisfied with the layout, you instantly get a PDF file you can download with the image sliced up.
Now print that bad boy out and you are just about ready to get to drawing!
