Forget double shot unless you budget is BIG. And for dye-sub, you will still need to buy a whole lot of them. Maybe ask IMSTO or look with Ivan or someone else used to organize group buys.

I'd have a guess that image is too detailed to Dye-sub i think.

unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)

i guess it doesn't have to be that detailed. just look nice and really close enough to the image. To get this made Would anyone want to get in to a group buy to make this happen ? Maybe will have different color options.

I don't think it's too detailed for a dyesub. Remove the colored background, make it centered on a 600x600, and post it in lysol's IC for dyesub caps.

It's a young Natalie Portman from the film Léon.
Using white key is going to be your only option if you want it to come out half way decent looking.
