THE VACVVM: Official Discussion Thread

noeldaddy · Wed Nov 11, 2015 9:14 am

Ghosts of Growth is easily one of my Top 5 prints of the year. It is magnificent in person. For those that don't know, it was originally done on the outside cover of a moleskine and was part of the moleskine show last year in CA. I'm incredibly jealous of the lucky bastard who owns that

Yeah, i went for that when Hashimoto released it, but sadly wasn't chosen. It went super quick.
Here's the original. Fantastic piece.

Not too sure, to be honest. It could be. The regular logo is also on the print on the other side. I do hope to get one of these patches either way. It's a nice design. ^_^

Looks like an Alchemical/Occult symbol . I can't remember off the top of my head but I think its related to the seal of Saturn / lead or the Demon Azazel .

You mean the demon Denzel Washington?

Is bad that this potentially demonic Denzelacious patch initially looked to me like something my Grandma would have stitched?

No love for the Vacvvm lately? Forgot about the drop and still managed to pull a Holt 15 minutes after the drop

+ 1 Ghosts of Growth. Low on funds, otherwise I would've picked up both. If anyone wants to trade a Gypsy Toad for a copy of Megalith, PM me. Would love Toad next to Phoenix on my wall.

I think that's a problem for a lot of people right now. Been an expensive year.

Was hoping to snag one of the leftover "Bokor" copies (w/patch) when Ghosts of Growth went up.
If anyone has cold feet, feel free to hit me up for a trade or cash dealio.

Damned straight, but a great one nonetheless! Incredible output this year.
