Valitse valmiista mitoistamme sellaiset, jotka vastaavat teoksen alkuperäisiä mittasuhteita.
Voit syöttää omat mitat sopimaan tiettyyn kehykseen tai tilaan. Jos valitsemasi koko ei vastaa alkuperäisen kuvan mittasuhteita, rajaamme taideteoksen tai jatkamme maalausta käsin maalatuilla elementeillä. Digitaalinen esikatselu lähetetään hyväksyttäväksi ennen tuotannon aloittamista.
Huomioithan, että näytöllä oleva esikatselu ei vastaa todellista rajausta tai jatkamista. Vain digitaalinen mallikuva näyttää lopullisen sommittelun tarkasti.
