I sized it a bit too narrow (now corrected), but this is my final colour and it is sitting on a 2nd impression GA&U (with the cut-down HarperCollins jacket living underneath this home-made one) -- was the only Sil I had that would match size-wise with the rest of HoME.

Stu that is stunning. I have a spare second too, I would be really keen to use your version if you are allowed and don't mind sharing with us here.
Great work.

Sorry for the double post here, but how did you produce this jacket? I know you mentioned an inkjet printer, low on blue ink. Did you just use a thin laminate on it afterwards to get that high gloss?

Nah, it is just A3+ inkjet paper but then put in a mylar over. Outside of the mylar it would just be flat/satin finish. If I wanted a glossy finish without getting someone else to print it, I'd have to go to a third party (or add a laminate, neither of which is worth the effort, given is just a bit of fun).

Gotcha, seems like a good solution. I just feel bad for anyone who comes across this image in Google SERPs, thinking they've found their next grail. It's damned convincing!
