I love the DE image, but the execution of the print didn't work for me.

The printing and detailing on this is astounding. So glad Phlegm is back at it.

Pics look great! This would make a pretty sweet stage in Tony Hawk Pro Skater. Mad grinds. I believe this is the first time we've seen the old sig in awhile. I personally wish he wouldn't write the title on the paper because it drives me crazy when it isn't centered.

the detail of the image makes hand finishing a bit more difficult... not impossible though. FoF had much more blank, white space that lent to additions. wouldn't surprise me if there were some with a few extras though.

Feels like this has more blank white space around the subject, but F&F was easier to hide things - both because of its busy subject and because the embellishment options were seamless additions. Don't know what could be added here that wouldn't just be floating in the negative space surrounding the subject.

If there are some floating around though, 35mmpaul got hosed. :lol:

I love all of the blokes work. Tributary is a classic example in my eyes. The pipework at the bottom of the image is especially Phlegm-like.

Also, here's my DE since we're talking about it.

Any thoughts on framing this? Float it or mats? What our plans?

Rather than the simple frame do we prefer something more elaborate?

Listen, unless you're going to say that for every single piece you put in the database, you'd best just keep your biased, corporate suggestions to yourself.
