you should have waited & picked one up below cost on the secondary. it's gonna work out pretty expensive after you're hit with the £20 parcelforce bill.

lol! Liking the Phil jupitus print on the left-hand side of the page. obeygiant.com/

[eyectopus]

What is he doing these days? Most of his latest stuff hangs around for days without any need for f5'ing, because it is crap.

[neale]

How many more times will we see that thread title this year?????

[kennas]

Surely with so many Shep prints being released every year its gotta get to a point where he runs out of customers I mean the fans can only fill their walls up and a couple of folders before they call it a day.

That's the dude from Whale Wars no? Anyone seen these people in action? Giant stink bomb chuckers

[rsyok]

I've never seen whale wars but have seen the amazing South Park version with the Japanese blaming Hiroshima on Whales and Dolphins!

[Replete]

I watched an episode after seeing the southpark; the show consists of the "warriors" driving across the lines of the japanese whale ships and throwing acid at the whalers, who shoot them with water cannons...then they get surprised when they damage their ship from hitting the japanese

What a snooze. Aside from Monk, Jaws and Spider Lily, he's put out nothing but garbage over the last year.

[jeezuzjonessnr]

Lots & lots of Tubes....

Phil Jupitus?

[artstylee]

better than billboards or some other crappier ones. it's what I expect from shep.

At least its an official Limited Obey print and Not some Ad campain for some commercial crap. ex.levi's, orwell book...

[happyshopper]

Is this the print this thread was started for?
New Romantic, Constructivist, Propaganda!?

I personally never hang my Obey prints. I keep them like a book in large presentation portfolios.

Agreed! I bought my first last year to see what the quality was like. It was crap. Specks of blue all in the red. Think I'll give it to one of my left wing friends who could appreciate the wind energy theme. I'd rather invest in the technology.

I think it was the whale whaler anti-whaler print.

Big fan of ol' Shep, but I can only sadly shake my head and agree with you (though I would add Peace Elephant and Israel/Palestine to your list). There have been far more misses than hits for a while now.

[Cedric Mnich]

I bought my first Shep last year, it was the Jessica one. I Like it and am surprised it is not sold out compared to others. I saw the original one in Paris during the Lance Armstrong exhibit against Cancer (which was sold for 25K$). The one depicted on a video. Gorgeous. But compared to older prints, I also think Shep has not made extraordinary stuff lately (from my point of view). Maybe AP affected him more than what we could think.

[artstylee]

Haters are having a field day with this print. Though I agree it's pretty 2002 obey.

But my first thought is that it looked like sasha baron cohen as bruno with a cap on.

I don't love the print but I don't hate the print.

I hate it, there i said it.
