Os Gemeos @99prints, by warsaw project on Jan 28, 2014 18:18:18 GMT 1, This release has made me realize there's a lot of wealthy bastards on this board! What do you all do for a living? Most of them buy and sell prints

Os Gemeos @99prints, by Deleted on Jan 28, 2014 18:18:19 GMT 1, So what OG originals is not a huge amount more? All I could find from auctions (that was worth buying) was a hell of a lot more. We're speaking like 15x times more..ย Sorry, not meaning Os Gemeos originals. Meant originals by different artists. I know you can't compare directly, but I feel 4k is a lot for a print. Not suggesting it won't appreciate in value and I would have bought one, but there is something in me that prefers an original.
I'd have to agree, I'd rather an original than a print any day of the week. Every time I look at one of my prints it really irks me there are others about hanging up in the world. My originals on the other hand give me so much more joy knowing they're one offs. Childish? Quite possibly

Between this and the last compical drop I have 5k towards my Adam Neate.
Every cloud, mate, every cloud.

Honestly?
its ok, can take it or leave it
I have seen much better art from them that would have looked better
But not bad for a cheap 'starter' print
I had heard they are going to have 2 releases a month for the next 10 years, around 400 in each run.
Not sure if the guy was bullshitting me ;-)

In our fat boys bike club the wives/ partners all think our bikes are worth around ยฃ200 each, we have a deal that if and when one of us pegs it, the others have to make sure the wife doesn't take the bike down the tip

For me it makes sense to do a print that really shows that they still work on the streets. The figure is a very typical OG image so it's easy to see who it's by for an untrained eye. All in all very happy with the image.

But if the spray effect is anything like it looks in the close-ups on IG, along with the scale, it's going to look killer in person, especially when framed.

I think after spending that kind of money framing may well be next year!!

I have been collecting for a while and just cant get my head around it. Good for them though. Painting one piece and getting someone to print it 99 times then sign your name on it for 390k is great work. I say rob the people blind while your hot guys ?

This is a bit ignorant sounding though, sorry.
I know it's almost silly to say, but still valid to consider, these prints weren't produced for free, nor will the website building and package/shipping be free (as far as I'd be willing to bet, at least!).
Also, who's to say this is the starting place? In such a long time of operating together, this is the first time they've released a litho print? Perhaps it's the only one.
Either way the proof is in the pudding, I'd say. There are no more to be bought and that to me, and I'm sure to them, is a sign that they succeeded.
