The only thing I could think of making this print any better would be a gloss overlay on top of the print. It would bring out the colors a little more. But I love it, just the way it is.

Bummer, but I think this is as close as we will ever get to the FOTBO giclee. :cry:

That is sweet!

The entire image has always been a bit too mystical for my tastes, but there are ton of details in this beast that I really, really like separate from the whole.

Ugh.

I Love this print so much, but the chances of a reprint seem to be dwindling. One of Aaron's masterpieces should be available to his fans...

This hurts to hear. I've wanted this one since I first heard about Horkey.

Some photos (kind of large) of my copy from the RO Test Proof batch. Its crazy the amount of embossing they were going for on these, and to think it never really even got nailed down. One thing you cant really see in the photos, how thick the "paper" or board that they printed these on is. :notworthy:
