Default (Updated: 20% off Limited Time) Mirror's Edge & Mass Effect Fine Art Collections

Some of you already know this (and have made reservations , but this evening at around 21:00 (UK time) the fine art collections for Mirror's Edge & Mass Effect go live at http://www.candb.com.

The media announcement and official blogs/social media accounts will only start reporting on this tomorrow morning. So if you want to reserve or buy some single digit edition numbers (some are still available) later tonight would be the time to check our site.

Alternatively you can email me at maarten(at)candb.com and I'll see if I can email you the details even ealier .

Thanks guys and much appreciated all of those who've already placed their reservations!

Hi Ingmar,

Thanks you for the compliment. Reactions have been so positive, it exceeded our expectations really.

A Journey fine art collection is definitely happening by the way very early in the new year.

Again if anyone wants early access, just email me or subscribe to our newsletter (Which we're converting into a VIP updater)

I'm generally not big on endorsing things, but thought it might be nice to share my experience on this one...

I just received my shipment from Cook and Becker. I have to say the artwork is amazing! Very, very high quality. The colors are deep, vibrant, and crisp. Printed on heavy stock, and if you go the dibond route you would likely need two people to lift/hang any of their larger pieces of art.

Maarten was my point of contact throughout the buying experience. He was helpful, responsive, and all-around great to work with.

Also, packaging was no problem.

If you've been considering buying anything from Cook and Becker, I hope this information is helpful to you in some way. Also, if you have any questions about the artwork or anything else, just post here and I'll share anything I can.

Let me say a couple of things though:

1) The art is HUGE (no exaggeration). I don't know what size the originals put out on the BioWare site were, but we're talking absolutely massive here!

2) Areas in the art that show light look like they are glowing when viewed in person. I don't know how this effect was achieved, but it's very fun too look at.

I mentioned my lack reluctance to enter the realm of photography to Maarten and I think we might be treated to some new photos of the pieces if we're lucky. Not sure, but hoping we can see something that isn't available though the website.
