Ah, didn't even see this thread got bumped today before I cross-posted in crypto thread. I can really GUSH in this thread, right? MODERN LIVING IS drymounting SICKKKKK god I love it. Making Rain - hilarious. Challenger and Too Big to Faile aren't hitting me but I think I need one of each edition. Will be really interesting to see how many of these they sell, honestly have no idea.

Looks like they sold a lot, in a 5 minute window.

I wonder if their NFT aftermarket will be any better than their currently weak print market.

Keep an eye on the aftermarket. Someone will eventually sell for below actual cost.

These flippers are 100x worse than the obey fairey flippers. Undercutting the undercutters.....

Ha! Really? All I've heard about NFT's is how they get sold for massive amounts then get flipped for even more. I'm not buying any NFT's but was curious if that would be the case for them since their print aftermarket has dried up. Sad face for all the Faile's on my walls I spent a pretty penny on and have little hope of ever recouping my costs. Such is life.

The initial statement is true. Established artists are doing well with their drops, on NG anyway.

Flippers are drymounting themselves in the ass and they love it.

New 48-hour timed edition up. $200
Today we are releasing a print of another painting from our Off The Walls show in Paris. Much like the Kool Living print, Fantaisie (Fantasy with a French twist) is a luscious archival pigment ink on a heavyweight archival matte art paper, that captures all the detail of the canvas and painted love.

We are releasing this as a timed limited edition print, meaning we will leave these up for 48 hours and whatever is sold during this period will set the final edition size. Hoping to make this beautiful print accessible to everyone that's looking for something new from the studio.

Fantaisie Print
24 x 30 inches
Archival Ink on Entrada 290gsm Cotton Rag
48 Hour Timed Limited Edition
Embossed, Signed and Numbered
FAILE 2021
