Thanks for the help Maarten.

There seems to be quite a few differences with the candb version and the original version of "Mirror Mirror":

candb:
http://www.candb.com/en/artwork/340/...-mirror-d.html

original:
http://www.imgbase.info/images/safe-...rrors_edge.jpg

I actually prefer the original because of the buildings, the lighting around her face, skine tone, and hair (seems more "natural/disheveled").

Hi Madigan,

If you order online at CandB.com you get the full receipt with actual value etc. But the shipment forms will only list a price as low as we think we can get away with so to avoid any (or high) custom charges. . In the case of custom charges we're currently also looking into a "charge shipper option" so that as a buyer you never have any suprise fees when taking receipt of your item. That being said we ship hundreds of prints to the US, Canada and practically anywhere in the world without any hassle.

The Tali print is beautiful I think. One of our most popular ones as well as there are only 7 left!

@MortalMonday

@Visavis I don't know if that one if the original or not (the colors are off), or what versions were used in promoting the game at the time. I can imagine there are several versions for magazine or website use.

All I can say is that the art team at DICE all extensively color corrected and proofed all the artworks that went on sale. Some of the images like Above it All have even be reworked to allow for large scale printing. What I can see is that the Mirror Mirror one we sell in closer is color tone to the rest of the works than the other one you're linking.

Ha, it's a very big piece right? If you want to share some pictures of the framed ones, would love to see those.

I've been a lurker on here for a while but thought I'd finally register.

Just wanted to say that the products from C&B are amazing. I've already gotten a few from the Mass Effect series and cannot say enough good things about the liquid gloss option they have. Absolutely stunning. Maarten is super quick to reply and has made the purchasing process smooth as butter. Couldn't deal with a nicer individual.

I'm already looking forward to the future releases that they have hinted at. Heaven help my wallet.

In case anyone was wondering about the packaging used when the giclees are mounted it looks like this. While it should be customary that expensive items like these are packaged properly, that's unfurtunately far from always the case. Treehouse could certainly learn from this.

They really like orange tape







I can only agree with Chemgear regarding the service provided by C&B, it's top notch.

Resurrecting this thread for this:




OMG it's gorgeous. Whatever production problems C&B may have had regarding the application of Dibond and Liquid gloss finish seem to have been solved. I'll get some better pics up soon, but I was about to burst with excitement.
