First Tiger wrap, and definitely not the last! Many Thanks to Scott & Bill for sharing, and everyone else for the additional tips, appreciated! Mike

I know you are pleased with the wrap when viewed with your eyeballs. Would you please comment on the ability of your camera shot to put it on the internet as it looks in reality. What rating would you place on the photo posted on a scale of 1 - 10. I will call the real eyeball view a 10! I am beginning to think that we need a photo group with a thread selection chart for recording the various options. My customers are driving me crazy by deciding what they want them to look like and asking me to do samples until I get what they want for exclusive use. It just is taking too much time.

Bill, I had a heck of a time trying to display the actual moire effect with my camera! Photo was taken from about three feet away (zoomed in), using 25% of the flash. Then manually adjusting the contrast/brightness using Photoshop software until a "close-to-actual" view was met. Pic above is pretty darn close to reality,(guess that I'd give it an "8/10"), overall very happy with the results! Used regular (A)nylon, grey(720)+dark blue(246) base, and royal blue #245-NCP for top thread. CP'd both layers before finishing with ThreadMaster.

Bill, note the use of grey and blue on the bottom layer which provided a more subtle effect. Had the bottom layer been white and blue, the pattern would be much "louder" due to the greater contrast of the bottom colors. For a more subtle effect, use less contrast in the bottom two threads. For a more startling effect, use more contrast between the bottom colors.
