SwiftDeath's Collection: Steels, some CE's, and more steels...

[flatout]

Great stuff!

[Sand4fish]

Great stuff as always! You are close to open a gallery on your own with all that art!

[SwiftDeath]

First off thanks to everyone! I really do love collecting and it's nice to show off my meager wares to those who can appreciate the beauty of them

Shall peruse the pics again later but loving the photos of it all - couple of pics not showing to me?? Monster Hunetr / skyrim steels??

There is a def art slant developing in your collection and a stunning one for us viewers. Have to say that collection of TR art is a total joy

Thanks for sharing it all

Glad to share. Helps keep me sane and keep track of my collection tbh

The tomb raider giclees are truly beautiful

And yes I've tried to dip my toe into VG art collecting and still have miles and miles to go but collecting wouldn't be so rewarding if it were easy

There is one group shot of the skyrim pre-order case (not a steelbook) + soundtrack that also has the monster hunter fake steelbook and crysis 3 and sim city steelbooks in it as well

Can you see this Mags?

Spoiler!

And I like your AC updates because I don't have yet those items, especially that Chinese ACIII booklet. It looks like the AC3 press kit but it wasn't, right? does it have the DVD in it? or not.

anyway, I like your updates in general.
soon I'm going to make my updates as well, when I got home next week. stay tuned

Thanks buddy, I am the same way and can always appreciate someone's passion for collecting regardless of what they collect for

The chinese ACIII booklet looks to contain the same info as the AC3 press kit but it didn't come with a CD/DVD. There is also no slot to attach a DVD/CD to it. I believe it was used at game stores to promote the game

Thanks Andy, love the BGII CE and I don't even really collect for PC, it's just one of those great games from my childhood

I should just take those pics and put the together lol

Ah ok yeah just do that then

I've looked at most of the pics you posted there I think

Love the look of the survival edition btw, will have to pick one up for myself

Thanks as I mentioned I've decided to start collecting art when and where I can so expect more in the near future

Still really need to get a proper art case for them all though but I will at some point lol

Thanks Dan it's been a while coming so unlikely I'll have an update of this size again at least not in the near future

Yep the EA Pin Set is quite nice although I would've liked the cardboard insert but what can you do?

The Tomb Raider art is wonderful. Honestly some of the other lithos I got really didn't impress me, just felt like a big digital photo (which it is) but not art, not something truly beautiful. The tomb raider art though makes me glad I started collecting art.

It's also worth noting the TR giclees that I thought would be my favorite aren't. Ascension and Tomb Raider are nice pieces but the color palettes on some of the less popular works are so mesmerizing in person

Hmm probably no on the ACR poster but yes on the ACIII promo lol

That ACR poster was from like January or something and was among the worst listed items I have ever seen

I think it was listed as assassin's creed under video games not video game merchandising lol

No idea how I stumbled on it but got it for less than 10 USD shipped which is a fine price

About the ACIII promo I believe the seller sold 2 or 3 copies at least so i did get one luckily and it was fairly cheap if I remember correctly

Thanks mortal

Means a lot coming from you

I sometimes wonder how many VG art pieces you must have lying around

Your collection inspired me to start collecting art a little more seriously so thanks for that
