It was fun while it lasted.
I'm in Canada and it costs more to ship everywhere, so get over it.
I think that it is the buttons.
I like a lot of Kurtz's posters, but am not a fan of his portrait work. Photo-realism can be impressive, but I prefer things that I haven't seen before.
I agree.. especially after Ruiz Burgos version on BNG, which I personally prefer to this one.
I cannot unsee those buttons now on either version.

Exactly.
A million artists can draw a baby yoda picture, but what makes Kurtz or a good Mondo poster succeed is how the work translates to a poster layout and dynamic, with the great ones being original in their poster recipe.

Speaking of photorealism, I wouldn't mind Greg Ruth's two pieces for Parasite to be produced in something more than the litho.
