What the hell is that Shawshank Redemption print? I had to squint to find the face.
I guess I can see it after someone's diagram on Twitter, but it's unfortunately still a miss for me. Is it supposed to be a cell wall? I'm still not sure what the tan stripe is. :?
My wife also sees a tan stripe but I see a blue stripe!
haha are you serious?

i saw the face immediately when he sent it in lol i have no clue how you guys aren't seeing it.

Yes its supposed to be a prison wall and cracks making a face with some light coming in.
Now that I know what I am looking for I cannot unsee it, but initially I had no idea what I was looking at. I knew that there had to be something that I was missing due to the artist's previous work, but I had to ask to find out what it was.

yeah, sadly. The poster looks fantastic but there are good sized bends, easy to see from the back, but the front not so much as its in the black ink portion.
Seeing this too on mine. Not severe, but seeing small spiny creases throughout the bottom heavy black ink. Thought maybe it was just the way it was printed but I could see it as result of rolling.

People don't want 'different', they want 'good'. That Shawshank poster stinks.

I say fudge doesn't exist and everyone says they see fudge because they were told it is there!

Direct correlation from Magic Eyes to becoming a conspiracy nut.

Could be an expensive week with the LD drop. Looks like 3 concepts each with variant/metal versions possibly.

If we purchased a Laurent in the past will we get a bbux? Otherwise I will have a 0% chance of scoring.
Think Indiana Jones or Alien will count? 😆
