Your latest Art Purchase?, by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 22, 2017 4:19:55 GMT 1, Not really art (or a purchase) but just received these pics back from the framers ... Quick backstory: My old man was in a band back in the day and toured with a few big names (not delving into this). He was sharing a dressing room with the Beatles around the time they had just got the news that they had scored their first number 1. Anyway, as they were mucking around they signed a promo card the record company had just given them (quite possibly one of their very first promo cards I believe - this really was back at the beginning). Anyway it's been sat in a scrap book along with lots of other stuff for a good 30+ years and i took it out to get framed by the good men of Darbyshires. I've included the original pic too just to show how young they all look! This is just fantastic in all senses. The story, the item, the framing. A+

Make your own Invader!, by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 20, 2017 16:59:12 GMT 1, Yes, Matt is correct. The original has three dark blue tiles in it, which I had actually never noticed as well.
Aza - I purchased all my tiles from Delphi Glass, based here in the US. They actually look quite a bit better in person, and were the best black tiles I could find.

Make your own Invader!, by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 20, 2017 7:23:11 GMT 1, A few updates on some finished mosaics. Working on some basic framing in the next week or two. Especially excited to see the B&W's next to each other. Anyway, at the very least, a bit of fun for me
PM me if you have any questions about composition/creation!

Your latest Art Purchase?, by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 15, 2017 18:50:06 GMT 1, Latest addition to the collection, fresh from the framer :-) I know it's not d*Face's most popular print, but I have to admit, it looks pretty impressive once framed. For more stuff, Instagram honestcrooks ofcourse :-D I agree - this looks fantastic. Love the simplicity and I'm a sucker for a good, clean B&W. Thanks for sharing!

INVADER at Musee-En-Herbe, by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 10, 2017 5:06:16 GMT 1, Perhaps a long shot, but from Fifth Wall's video, it appears that there are Invader sticker machines at this exhibition. Any way that I might be able to weasel a forum member into snagging a handful for me during their next visit? I will of course compensate for the stickers/time/effort.
Thanks! BMF

Advice - flattening/framing Stik big issues, by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 6, 2017 19:19:37 GMT 1, I followed rjf76 and got my book one framed - love it. I put it under some large heavy books for 2 weeks and it came out very well, you can see the crease if you're looking, but no-one has ever mentioned it. upload image to get url Great looking framing on both the Stik and the Eine - the spacers are just enough and not too much. Thanks for sharing!

Retna • Say My Name, So You Can See Me , by Buff Monster Fan on Feb 5, 2017 3:58:04 GMT 1, I would never tell anyone what they should buy or consume, but (for me), a purchase is also kinda an endorsement. I know some artists will have shady lives/backgrounds/habits, but if I knowingly give money to a person (or a company for that matter), then I am kinda saying that I'm ok with helping them to continue in the way that they have been behaving.
I appreciate that the world isn't black and white. But I would prefer to do as little harm as reasonably possible. While a person or company behaves in a way that I don't agree with or that I think is detrimental to others, then I probably won't give them my money.
I find his art visual pleasing, but I don't need to own it or send money his way.
We all struggle through life with our own morality as companions. Some are easier to live with.
Anyway, back to arguing.
Did I mention I'm vegan?

Invader Miami Map, by Buff Monster Fan on Jan 27, 2017 5:17:59 GMT 1, Hi friends,
I'm heading to Miami this weekend for pleasure mixed with just a sprinkle of work I was hoping to catch some art while I'm in town (Wynwood Walls?) and wanted to see if any pieces from Invaders 2012 invasion still exist that I can check out.
Any help would be appreciated!
