    picture

    Good morning - it has been a while since I have been here, but of course now I need help. My customer wants the attached picture on a brass plated steel plaque plate. I know the picture is not very good and the dog is black. Is there a way to do this that would look good? Thank you for any help in this.

    Dye sublimation on a brass plate would be best, lasering will give you a blob...

    I would use laser sublimation--black. (that's what I have) I would also cut out the background.

    I used brushed gold aluminum Dynasub. This is mounted on an urn.

    Pat,

    You should be able to turn that into a nice engravable image. If you want to send it to me (pm) I will see what I can do with it.
