Hey guys, I'm building a Death Star wall to take photos at my Star Wars Day party (May the 4th be with you)... I'm already spending a lot of time and money on a grey wall 12ft long and 7ft high. I'll definitely share photos when we're done, but for now I thought I'd share my biggest cost cutting shortcut with everyone.
I believe it's around $4 to get that printed (it's 2ft x 3ft 150dpi) and then stick it in a poster frame ($8 at Walmart). I know they're supposed to be grey not black, but Kinko's only prints big like that in black and white, and that's where I have friends who can do this for me for free. You can always trace out the white parts with an xacto knife and then spray paint the remaining paper and the frame grey. Then put a white piece of paper behind it. I don't know if I'll have time for all that with everything else I'm building, but these will still look great on my wall.
