Looks great, seems a fair deal, I wonder if you can request even front to rear wheel size.

You'll get the print. Giclée prints (fancy term for inkjet) aren't expensive, just takes a minute to roll them up and pop in the mail.

Nice!
I imagine you'd only get the digital file for $49. It probably took 2-3 hours for someone to draw the car, with that amount of detail, or digitally manipulate the image you sent. Add in the overhead of hardware, software, marketing etc. and I think it is a good deal. Printing, packaging and mailing would be more.

I sent away to the "Car Skyline" company for an 11" x 14" sketch of 'Rosebud' about a week ago. I'd seen their ads for a while on FaceBook and they were on sale for $49.00, so I thought I'd bite and send them my photo. I got an email yesterday that said the print would be arriving today. So an email arrives today with a 400mb jpg attachment. They did a great job of capturing my car; the right color, all the right details including the correct license plate number, tow hook, even the sun-bleached red grill knobs and Seven Enterprises decals on the side windows. The website sez it's supposed to be printed on durable matte archival acid-free paper. I'm wondering if all I get for my $49 bucks is a jpg file.
I printed the file on gloss photo stock and it looks great. Maybe the actual print will be arriving by mail. We'll see. I'll let you know if it arrives.
