Cook & Becker Thread - Premium Amazing Prints!

All of the dishonored prints are out for purchase now all are either out of 25 or 12

Seems to be a few mistakes though? One has a price tag of £945 and another is not for sale at all.

Anyone buy one of these yet? I am interested to know about the quality compared to the Bethesda giclees.

It's not the same paper (Bethesda ones feel more sturdy, C & B ones feal more fragile, like they don't have any protective varnish). But I found the Cook and becker ones to be sharper and having brighter colors. However, I don't think they are worth their price tag...yes they are high quality, but $150 quality? Not so sure.

C & B:











Of course they do look a bit sharper in real. It's a little hard to show the quality on picture

Bethesda and Sony giclees:

Thanks, good to know. Still debating whether to drop the money on a few of them.

Bethesda and Sony giclees:

After all this time, I finally got my 1st C&B print today in the mail. I will agree, they do not feel as strong as the Bethesda ones - but I think that's because of the paper used. I feel the C&B paper is actually thicker, but not as structurally rigid. The colors and sharpness remind me almost exactly of my Dishonored giclees - the colors are extremely vibrant.

Was waiting to get this one to see if they lived up to the reputation - just ordered 3 more. I would tend to disagree on the price, I think $150 is a steal for something of this art quality, much more worth it than a $100 lithograph.
