What time is 10am AEST in U.S. time? Is this going to be like Thursday night in the U.S.?

Edit: I think it's 5PM CST on Thursday (Thanksgiving). Not the most convenient time here in the U.S.

Yeah, they shouldn't if his first print (from his site) is any indication.

Too high of a price point. Fighter Pilot is awesome, but too pricey for most, I would think.

Recruit #1 is still available from his website. No insta-sellouts on these.

Easy pick up for anyone thats interested.

Anyone rich enough to be going for an XL?

This is great news...

Having a really hard time deciding which of these I want to go for... I love the closeness of 'Fighter Pilot #1' and (what I like to think is) the symbolism of his eyes being shielded -- almost like a veil -- by the too large helmet. On the other hand 'Spitfire' drives home the 'war as play' theme in a much clearer fashion... just my thoughts.

The Geddes drop also complicates things. Haven't bought a new print in months and now looking at three.

I really like this guys work and Fighter Pilot is sweet just not to sure about Spifire, the nose of the plane where it meets the ground looks alittle off to me, but i am due to get a eye test next week :?

Ha, agreed. I skipped the Geddes drop so I could think about going for a large Fighter Pilot, but I'm leaning towards just grabbing the regular. Might swing back for a Spitfire if they stay available long enough.

I'm a bit surprised by the lack of attention these have gotten around here. I can't remember an artist's theme resonating so fully with me as Peck's has and given that his originals (besides the studies) are already well out of my price range; I'm glad the effort has been made to make his work more widely available.

Also, Michael and Yvanne have been great with customer service (reminds me of some other folks EBers might be familiar with) and seem to be taking all the right steps to build a dedicated following.
