Not better in person?, by Deleted on Jun 4, 2014 18:19:17 GMT 1, We all know prints usually look much better in person then on the pictures we see before we buy (Eine's Amusement first comes to mind).
Anybody have an experience with being disappointed with a print after receiving it?

Not better in person?, by Lroy on Jun 6, 2014 18:16:29 GMT 1, I got the last Lush on 1xrun. Not impressed at all... I hatre to keep prints in tubes, if i Buy, it is to put them on the walls. I have only 4 tubes with prints inside. When you buy prints, you have to think to the frame ( in this side, I only frame the prints with frames found in the street, afeter a flea marker per example )... and to VAT, it could be impressive with the customs costs... I think to those who bought the Invader in Japan, lol... I hope for them, that it will marked on the tube " as gift " ...

Not better in person?, by Lroy on Jun 6, 2014 18:44:06 GMT 1, Archival pigment print .. 2 on ebay, nobody wanted them, I bought it cause I like Lush, the man...
Here is a quote about the print :
" Quote from LUSH and the 1XRUN website:
"I read a lot of MAD magazine and always got a kick out of the fold in back pages and thought why not do it as a print? This is an idea I had drawn and painted then expanded upon with the original drawing of the print.
The original piece was created in the middle of 2013. I used a big piece of paper, I have no idea what kind. I just draw on paper racked from an art store and the outline with black gel pens I racked from Officeworks, then I used manga coloring markers I racked in Tokyo to finish it up over good day's worth of drawing and coloring in like I was in pre school." - Lush

They are the same machines as far as I am aware it depends on ink quality and the actual printer model from what I have read. That's why I always wonder why the ink type and printer don't get mentioned.. I got 2 BLK market prints and colour is unbelievablely vibrant up close

Not better in person?, by Deleted on Jun 6, 2014 19:49:29 GMT 1, I bought a David Walker print from eBay a couple of years ago.
It was a Laminate Media print and it was like tracing paper.
Never again !
