Custom targets? Large paper printing?
I'm curious to know if anyone knows where I can buy non-standard targets, or custom targets of enemies.
I do know someone with a designjet, which would be a good target on I think its HP plotter paper 36" and then there is 24" wide. Too bad the plotter machines cost 10k, though perhaps I could get a decent used one and do it myself... *offtopic question* Anyone up to buying custom targets?

Re: Custom targets? Large paper printing?
It is good to know people.
I can print them here at work, though they don't like me to print them very often. But we have a plotter that is 24" wide, and on a roll. But my dad, brother, and uncle all work at printing places. And I used to. So if I need a large quantity of targets printed, I just say something to them, and they get it done. I usually have to wait a couple weeks till they get the right scrap paper, and the free time to do it. But they are free.

Re: Custom targets? Large paper printing?
I have two HP Designjet 600's here at work. Will print up to 36" wide. I can't seem to find anything (like the zombie targets) good to print!

HP5000series 60" wide CYMK.
I haven't found it cost effective to print much but posters and things I'd rather keep with it. I should fire up my old hp10ps.........

Re: Custom targets? Large paper printing?
I think you can buy intro designjets for around 1K
Refurbished for around $500. I have an older 36" design jet. I goof around with targets sometimes, but it's really not worth it. A 100'ft roll runs around $50 plus ink. I do have a ripped off silhouette I copied pasted from the net scaled it up in my cad program and re-sketched around it, and made replaceable mid sections on a B size paper to make it more affordable.

Maybe this program would let you print out something that would work for you.

Re: Custom targets? Large paper printing?
I have a huge rar file of targets of every imaginable shape... most are PDF files and are vector output, so you could pop them into Illustrator and print them as large as you like.
If anyone is interested, I'll go ahead and upload them to my website...
