36 ford tomb stone help ???

Dad and grandma are going to get grandpas stone they want his 36 on it but seem to think they are gonna need line art instead of a pic to get it done . has anyone had this done? They are going this morning and I cant get ahold of the place to find out what they need before I send over pics.

 

Wow I thought with all the artists on here someone would know what I needed to do

 

Saw a stone that had the photo copied by a laser than colored in, they said the color should last indefintely. I sure this is being done in all the states.

 

Like a full color photo?

 

Seems like there's a HAMBer that posts in the friday art shows that does this kind of work... can't remember his ID off the top of my head though... think he's also posted a few pieces in the cl***ifieds for sale as well.

 

Really? How common do you think this is???

I only know of one artist who works in granite.

Thanks Ill check it out. gotta get some pics scanned and Ill start a build thread on this car to try to bring this all on topic. Grandpa got it in 61 and gave it to dad in 82

 

not sure how its done a friend of mine i used to work with had a 49-50 car and his wife got pic of it on his stone looks like a b&w pic

 

As far as art goes this place has never let me down.

 

it's been 23 years since i was involved with my father's tombstone , at the time i had them copy my fathers signature on it. he had VERY good penmanship. i gave them a piece of paper that my father signed for them to work from. i would think technology has progressed since then
