Why do that? it could have gone for even more!

(Must leave of the booze mid week...)

Faile Strange Encounters, by Zippy on Oct 24, 2007 23:21:34 GMT 1, nah - its cos the first originals at sothebys sold for a lot of money.
those with big material bags now see an opportunity to buy them up at near to cost price.
Especailly as the Faile prints from the US are now getting ยฃ400+.

Faile Strange Encounters, by snakes on Oct 24, 2007 23:25:38 GMT 1, I agree that strange encounters is a lovely print, but to me it and many other Faile prints just seem more like posters than prints and they just seem to look trapped once inside a frame!

I only have 2 Failes but I would stuggle to agree. I think I know what you mean but I used to collect comics (Luther Arkright, Lone Wolf and Watchmen anyone???) and always enjoyed the 'captivated' nature of those covers as I slipped them onto backing board and into plastic covers (no real change as I get older. Perhaps you are right...!)

I have to say that Strange Encounters in one of their cleanest prints, two color screen print. Have you ever seen a Faile print in person? This is a fair question because I used to think the same way you did until I got one from the last release with a lot of hand done love and that changed my entire outlook. Check one out in person and let me know if you still feel that they just look like posters.

Agreed - as for a close second check out the phil frost prints that arkitip are selling. They have the same sort of hand finished love to them.

Faile Strange Encounters, by Philippe on Oct 25, 2007 10:00:03 GMT 1, I may seem a bit biased judging by my avatar, but what I find special about Faile's work is that each print has so much mixed media applied to it that it feel's like an original. Even though there may be 10 others it still looks and feels special!

I'm there as well. Faile was the first art print I ever bought and I can't think of a print I've had since that comes anywhere close !!! (Blackrats are good but no cigar!)
QUALITY !
