Guest Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 I still have his last print in my to frame pile. I keep spending money on more prints, instead of framing my backlog of like 15-20. I need to get that one done professionally, since I want to float it, and have never floated a print before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My frame pile us getting out of hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steventangent Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 I'm trying to get decent pics of them - partially because I want to be able to accurately portray their condition online. Some have pinholes or tape marks on the back. A few do not. I'm trying to find the best way to sell these things. It's definitely a niche market, but one in which buyers will spend a lot of money. I'm a little nervous, to be honest. I'll post some pics here (another time), but the ones I've taken so far aren't that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippielauryn Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Find the spot in your place that has the most natural in-direct sunlight. That may help with getting the best photos possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladew1ll1s1sdead Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Getting a Cam Boucher print and a mystery print from Corey Purvis. So fucking stoked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Well I forgot about the Jeremy Geddes print, so it looks like I'll be ordering the James Jean on Tuesday. Edit: I started to hang stuff up in my work in progress framing room. Here is my Portugal. The Man print collection. Shitty iphone camera was washed out a bit by the light, and all the frames are slightly different so it was hard to get them even. I also suck at hanging stuff. passionbrand and hippielauryn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phono45 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Tried to grab one of the Black Keys prints today. The website checkout process sucked so bad I couldn't get checked out before it sold out. I hate this game Is that the Shepard Fairey print he did for Black Keys at the LA Forum? If so I did my best to get one as well, but was unsuccessful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroFourNine Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I used to have a collection of 200+ pieces of original comic art, prints, lithographs and giclees. I sold it all except two pieces of original art and a dozen or so prints. I still have some early James Jean prints. This is a cool thread, but I don't miss buying them. I am buying a house in the spring, and I plan to have some or all my pieces framed. I also have a few fine art pieces from the master Japanese print maker Hajime Namiki. If you like trees, and perfectly executed prints made with metallic inks, check his stuff out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroFourNine Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Hajime Namiki James Jean I pulled five signed and numbered comic art prints out of my stash while photographing that I will be selling. They are by Stan Sakai (Usagi Yojimbo), Frank Cho (Sheena), Andrew Robinson (Ghost Rider, X-men), and Simone Bianchi (X-Men). PM me if interested. passionbrand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batman Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I grabbed Heart of Ice and Joker's Favor. Paypal is still giving me serious issues on the new site even after remaking my account. They staggered the drop so I had to do two separate orders. The first order went through easily and then the second got tied up. So frustrating. Some problem with API authorization or something along those lines. Anyone else get that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
