wurstisart Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 i think you should stay away from posting links / pictures that origin from CAF, if i recall correctly. it is a bandwidth issue...and they will shut it down. pictures should be saved somewhere else.

ciorac Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I finally broke down and took some of my art to the local frame shop a couple of weeks ago. They were ready for pickup yesterday. Now that I've got them hanging in my comic room, I'm glad I decided to get them framed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mephisto Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I finally got some more stuff framed now that I have painted my bed room. I have come to the conclusion that I really don't have enough wall space. This is the cover to Identity Disc 5 by Andy Brase and my favorite published piece by him. Loads of villains and lots of detail. He doesn't get enough work. This piece is pretty large. It's the cover to Spider-Man Valley fo the Lizard by Julie Bell.

detective35 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Awesome paintings and great job on the framing. Who does your framing and matting for you? Dwight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephisto Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I go to an antique shop that also does framing. Mitch from Graphic Collectibles recommended them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jick Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Ok since I am a newbie here, let me post my art.My light reflects from the camera angle I take. I also cropped the frame because I felt the pictures did not come out good. I will try to line up all my art and take better pictures of them when my time permits. I also have 3 more art pieces that are still in the framing shop so will snap those when they arrive. In the meantime, here is what I have so far: Man of Steel 4, John Byrne and Giordano Detective Comics 876, Jock Batman Illustrated by Neal Adams Volume 3 Splash World of Smallville 1, Kurt Schaffenberger and Alfredo Alcala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jick Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 (edited) I decided to line up my art collection and here it is: I also want to get your opinions, what is a better way of matting the art? With the company logos and page numbers like this.... ..or just without anything and straight to the strip like this... Opinions greatly appreciated since I am still a newbie here. Thanks.

jick Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 What is better, with stat or without stat? The stats do not affect the image in any way. Let me know your thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alxjhnsn Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I'd go with if you could drop the UPC box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CollectingFool Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 To me it's not a cover if it doesn't have the stats. For the panel page, I have the mat cut to the art area. Only time I leave room to show the other stuff is if there's a significant reason to (artist's signature, important note from editor, etc). Mostly I like seeing the art as it was intended to be published. There are exceptions like with some painted covers but not many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jick Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Thank you all for your opinions, they are much appreciated. I am keeping the Detective cover with the stats. My DC Retroactive Batman cover by Mandrake is too beautiful and detailed though to include stats. Besides it would hide the artist's signature based on the location of the text.
