Default Re: Journey - Fine Art Prints

In general giclee prints are more expensive to manufacture than lithos because each print is made on an individual basis, has a higher color resolution, luminosity and pixel resolution. It captures nuances that lithographs can't. Personally, I've purchased some game lithos in the past and was dissapointed with the quality (and therefore I started Cook & Becker

However, not all giclees are the same (but most retailers don't tell you this). You have decor prints, gallery-grade and in our case: museum-grade giclees created with superior archival inks and techniques.

We are fully aware that most people have a limited budget and I really want to try and price the game prints especially in an affordable bracket. Hence my question about Journey because I want to be able to provide some special yet affordable to a wider group.

A couple of smaller ones from Killzone are currently prices at €85 or $95 for instance. Such as: http://www.candb.com/en/artwork/214/...killzone-.html

Looking at the ME print, if you'd do that as a giclee you're probably looking at € 150
