His work makes me laugh, and I really like the Searching for Suri and Donnie Darko ones, however the prices seem a bit high for what it seems like is done...I've never seen an original, but it states that it's acrylic on an original movie poster...so the only artwork done is really adding something? Like on the Gandhi one, was it just adding a KFC bucket? Again, I like the idea behind some of his work but I can see the price being a deterrent.

There's more than just the bucket. People are waving chicken legs in the background, and the text is changed hilariously also.

All of this done completely seamlessly. You have to really catch it under supremely close inspection and at just the right angle to tell there was any modification done at all. They are asking a lot of money for them, but I think they are really neat pieces in person.

Can i just say that your photos are totally awesome, Billy?
I know you put in some work to get those OG photos right, and I'm impressed. I didn't even realize they were photos at first.

And you never will with that attitude. Hilariously stylized coke dealers hardly ever cry. And when they do, it's almost never with emoticons on poster forums.

Yep, same here. Cool JPG you stumble across on Reddit, but not worth a mortgage payment.
When stressed about getting a drop, just remember: it will decay into the same organic matter as inevitably as your rotting corpse no matter how much museum glass you put in front of it.

So Francesco Francavilla posted this on his Twitter earlier today:
"It's a Universal Monday! :) #imighthaveoormighthavenothintedsomethinginthistweet ;) "

And just now posted this:
"New Mondo poster finished. Onto some Cap America & BlackWidow and @TheBlackBeetle interiors & remarquing the Creature APs now #multitasking"

Creature from the Black Lagoon 3D poster for the Alamo screening? Or will it be for The Mummy or The Wolf Man screenings?
