All gone, I just rang. I had one in the basket as soon as they went up and two minutes after the basket was emptied automatically on confirming payment!! Just wasn't quick enough. Were they definately 5 online? Seems a bit quick to shift 5 in that time.

Its online, the whole world is watching, so yeah I think they where all there, some people just type really fast on their computers  Thumbs up to Opus for offering them online, but Id wish it was a bit more like POW when you have the print in the basket, dosent have to be 20 mins, but 5 or 10 mins would be nice.

a basket system where the item is removed from your basket if you're not quick enough....genius

I was hoping that if you stick the item in your basket it would be secure for at least a few minutes whilst you fill in your card details!!

I like the Dennis the Menace arm on Little Angels piece. I quite like both prints, but have quite a few already in my folder needing framing so missing these isn't the end of the world. Well done to those of you who were lucky and commiserations to those who had an issue with the basket  |

The trick with OU is to make sure that you register on their site , then when you go to basket all your details are already there, you only have to add your payment details so its quick!

This morning I found refreshing on the opus site was really quick (compared to the grid lock ala pow and faile)..And I wasnt registered...Really happy to have scored a little angels (first time actually buying something at cost)...Framewise Im thinking black ornate...
well done to opus..good price and quick servers
So who else managed to bag one ?

Freebies look very cool! I think i'd actually prefer a set of the three small prints, to one of the bigger ones!

Back on the train and not too hung over, which is a surprise  bailed at about half 12 (first of course!), but at least I managed to be relatively compost mentus at the end! Loved the show, the gallery is great and really showed off the huge canvases/boards. Have to agree with Gilsteph, the Union Jack piece was fantastic... you've got to see it in the flesh to get all the texture. Managed to get a 'Little devils', it's less of a print and more of an original! He even hand painted the white behind the kids. And of course the freebies, fantastic, the complete set of three 'Fantasies' screen printed and hand finished... all signed and numbered (plus a signed sticker sheet), I lurve a good freebie ;D Back to the big smoke... |

Cheers mate ;D remember it does involve taking two days out, two three hour odd train journeys and a sleazy hotel! All worth it tho!

Good stuff. In regards to the little angels print, are the black elements the only bits which are screenprinted and the rest is totally handfinished ? |

I asked Hush about the hand finishing. It took him 8 days to do all the work on them. He was calling them originals Vs prints. He really wanted to produce something people could enjoy at an affordable price but that looked like an original.......and with the amount of hand finishing it really is!
