It's cool but at 10pm CST on 11/1 and it hasn't reached its limit of 200 even with ALL the shameless plugs by nakatomi...meh. My original GID backlight print from Spencer's circa 98 smokes this

Once wrong with plugging their own prints?

I think it looks pretty awesome and glad to finally snag a Cooper that will make it on my wall. :clap:

Well as a huge fan of The Crow I love this one. Glad to see Eric Draven modeled after O'barr's original vision.

Well, this one has Brandon's likeness, so not exactly James's character from the novel. Also, James did a print with nakatomi and it doesn't get more original than that.

Facially it looks like Lee but the punked out hair and sharper makeup lines looks more like the comic character IMO.

Yeah, I think the desired effect was a combination of both. It works, but his head looks a just a bit too big for me. I'm wanting to know what the GID on it is, let us know.

That was the idea, while the "character" is based off the original comic character I didn't want to rip off James' way of drawing his face.
So I referenced it back a bit to Brandon but kept the big 80's hair, iggy pop style body, scars and bullet casings in his hair like the graphic novel.

As a fan of all forms of The Crow, it works.

Can't wait to get mine... :clap:

Love the novel and film. I didn't pick this one up, but I recognize the talent behind it. Hopefully someone posts some good shots once they receive it.

Sorry I missed out on this totally (not checking board while on vacation), like it a lot as I'm a huge fan of the comic & original movie, will have to keep my eye out for one.
