En Iwamura - Pinecone Boy Sunset, by kapusta on Oct 6, 2021 16:16:41 GMT 1, As others have said, I wish these were textured. Also, I wish it was ceramic or polystone instead of vinyl, similar to his OGs. I like this, I don't love it. I want one of his pieces in my collection, but I wait for their next collab.

Kaws Family, by kapusta on Sept 13, 2021 17:22:49 GMT 1, Mish-mash of characters, doesn't feel cohesive. The black version is superior, but only because the color scheme times them together, although the X eyes should be yellow across all figures. Feels weird that only 1 figure has some color.
My god, can KAWS please introduce a new character already?

Invader Prints Ranked - Top 10 !, by kapusta on Jul 21, 2021 18:36:15 GMT 1, Best Invaders are the ones I own: Warning & Aladdin Sane. All the rest are inferior Kidding. I wish I owned an RVE โ it's one of my favorites. Which Aladdin Sane do you own?
Orange/Clyde. Scored it on POW at release. Came with a small wrinkle on one of the glossy eyes. Should have sent it back for replacement, but I kept it thinking nothing of it. Now I kick myself over it with how Invader prices are now

D*FACE A Royal $#*! Show at Stolenspace, by kapusta on Jun 17, 2021 17:17:13 GMT 1, My theory is that he's saving his best images for when his career starts drifting towards irrelevancy which is probably already happening since he keeps dropping stinkers, dabbling in overpriced NFTs, or rehashing his best work from over a decade ago.

Aya Takano ๐ฏ๐ต Japanese Painter โข Superflat โข Manga, by kapusta on Jun 7, 2021 15:59:46 GMT 1, Do you mean the Hiroshi marble statues? I thought they were crap and hugely overpriced but I'm not sure why that would stop you supporting Avant Arte in the future. Pretty sure theyโre referring to the Calleja prints release, with virtually the entire edition being pre-sold to VIPโs. Leaving approx 11 prints and vetting over 300 people by phone for them. Even after that, if you were selected, you were sent a link which was first come first served. So you could still miss out entirely... All that to buy a print hand finished by Javiโs wife
Perfect summary I'm exhausted just reading the process...

Jon Key Counter Editions Print Edition June 3rd, by kapusta on Jun 3, 2021 21:49:48 GMT 1, I like the artist and print, but I will NEVER support a release with tiered pricing, hence why I'll never own a Shrigley. F*ck off with that nonsense.

Fanakapan ๐ฌ๐ง Street Art โข Print Release โข Art For Sale , by kapusta on May 13, 2021 18:07:35 GMT 1, I think for other artists, their variants tend to be vibrant, desirable colors (ie. Findac) vs. this where the main edition was the poppiest version. Price & color won over scarcity. And for flippers, the main has the best flip potential. I can see variants selling for cost or below on the aftermarket.
Regardless, I'm happy with the grey version

This burning art NFT trend is super lame. Scratch that, this whole NFT art thing is super lame.

One less morons - one purposely burnt , by kapusta on Mar 4, 2021 19:51:44 GMT 1, Is that video the actual NFT itself? This is amateur "provocateur" trash trying to ride the wave of "digital art."
Overall, the idea is lame. But if they were, ya know โ ACTUAL ARTISTS โ they could have made something somewhat artistic out of it. Instead, you get a crudely shot video of a guy struggling to light the damn print with his shitty lighter and blocking the camera.

Miss Bugs Do No Harm Syringe, by kapusta on Feb 3, 2021 17:41:35 GMT 1, Also, framing these prevents them from toppling over. These are tall and if you're placing them in a high traffic area, I'd worry about knocking it over.

Wraith is also a print by Stanley Donwood. That Wraith >>>> whatever the fuck you are talking about here.
I'll keep my Jago Wraith. Have fun with that bleak mess connected to a band I don't give 2 shits about.
