Default Re: Bungie Art Show @ Ltd Gallery 10/24

I would imagine that a lot of it has to do with the fact that many collectors probably don't even know about the show, since they don't visit this site and have no knowledge about the gallery. I know that I wouldn't have heard about it if not for this thread, and I regularly visit forums that focus on prints and posters.

Plus, it's just difficult to buy stuff, especially art, for a game that hasn't been released yet because you can only judge the images from an aesthetic point of view. Some of the originals that haven't been sold could depict an important part of the game that everyone will want by this time next year, but because we have no narrative context for the images, they're just pretty pictures. Personally, I think it's a steal to get a framed 24x30 piece of concept art for $300 regardless of where it shows up in the game, but a lot of people would have a fair amount of hesitation about spending that kind of money on an "unknown" image.

I decided to pick two giclees that show locations of the game. Since you pick your own character, it will probably mean the characters depicted won't be so popular (in contrast to mass effect where u have fan favorites characters, and those are more sought after than pictures of locations).

The thing is with the frame (i think its good price, but i would be cautious to have a frame shipped overseas in my case). But, its missing a passe-partout though, its a no no to frame directly against glass imho!

It was posted on penny arcade I think on Tuesday or Wednesday. Huge traffic, I honestly thought everyone already knew about this. Sales benefit Childs Play which is also pretty huge. I know it's Bungie, but sales seem slow because it's awfully early for most people to start collecting on a new IP.
Too early for me anyway haha

Little late to the party, so I missed out on the Exo, but was able to still pick up everything else I was looking at. Pretty excited about that!

How did you get them so fast?! I thought they didn't ship until after the public display ended on 11/3? Looks great btw.

Very nice!

Glad I managed to get two of them.
Still a bit upset I missed out on the Exo.
