Sepia effect for printing

Steve · 2013-06-23 20:45:32

Hi folks. I'm looking for some advice on a sepia effect that will look good when printed. I'm doing a photo montage using desaturated images and a top layer color fill which is 163.139.81 @75% opacity. I'm going to get it printed & framed on canvas about 1m x 0.8m, 300dpi. This is a sample of what I'm getting: I'm worried…

Hi folks.

I'm looking for some advice on a sepia effect that will look good when printed.

I'm doing a photo montage using desaturated images and a top layer color fill which is 163.139.81 @75% opacity. I'm going to get it printed & framed on canvas about 1m x 0.8m, 300dpi.

This is a sample of what I'm getting:

I'm worried about how this will come out when printed - I know that how something looks on a computer screen is often way different to how it comes out on paper.

Anyone here done this before? or can suggest a more appropriate fill colour/opacity that will look good?
