This topic is dedicated to: The Iron Giant 14 Landland

there is an oil spot, or grease, to the top left above the giant. I thought maybe it was from the person pulling them from the stack at mondocon, but now I see that EVERY picture on ebay has them. Same spot, but seemingly different outlines.

Going to blaspheme for a moment here, but I prefer this over the Durieux. Sacre Bleu!

Really dig Landland, unfortunately most of their output that I come across is work for bands that I don't care for, so I never buy it.

But this I enjoy AND would buy.

Yeah..not sure what the deal is, but it's there on most if not all of them I believe.

Tried to capture the metallics a bit...

How bazaar. I see it in the detail shots above. I'm hopeful mine won't have it.

This is brilliant. Love it

That would drive me crazy

Is that spot perhaps supposed to be a puff of smoke/fumes coming from that pipe?

I've got the spot on my print as well. That said, this was the best print from the Mondocon show in my opinion. The line work is great!

nice work

Still wish I would've picked this one up. Ah well, I got way too much stuff anyway.

Nice to see such a fresh take on this movie. Very cool.

That's what I think. I took this picture of the copy hanging in the Iron Giant mini-gallery; it's 200/200. The smoke-puff/oil-spot didn't stand out much.

I've got 121/200 and the ink spot is there but not really a blemish unless you're looking for it...
