Space Invader FRAMED, by met on Jun 17, 2018 1:01:21 GMT 1, Given the level of thought that clearly went into different aspects of framing, I'm curious about your glazing choice. Was the decision to forgo non-reflective glass or acrylic just to keep costs down? I went with UV protective glass and the reflection in this photo is exaggerated by the camera. In person it's much easier on the eyes.
Thank you for the response.
A pet peeve of mine is reflections in framing. They're a real distraction to my eye, which affects my ability to fully appreciate certain artworks. When great effort and consideration has already gone into framing a piece, to then choose reflective glazing often feels to me like a stumble at the last hurdle.
However, it's reassuring to learn that the reflections in your photo were exaggerated by the camera lens.

At least you can see if someone is standing behind you while you admire your print. Good choice, safety first.
Its actually framed lovely, I'm just jealous and the photo isn't doing it any justice.

Excellent!! This is the one that's on the perspex? Is it held in by the glass? Looks unreal. Yes, I stuck it to perspex before dropping it off to be framed. They used some type of silicone and glued it to the mat board so itโs not touching the glass. |

Can I ask how you Got the package so flush and rigid to the back? It looks great did they put a piece card in it to replace the tiles?

Gold/Blue version (Lakers colorway) Floating it over that dark mat with black frame looks great! While standing in line I was set on this colorway and bought it, wasn't until I got home that it reminded me of the Lakers colors. Love the Lakers but wish I would have went green/blue! |

How did you handle the instructions on the back? Are they behind glass (if yes - what kind?) Are they together with the static bag? How does it hold in place? Static bag with instructions is held in place by removable silicone to the matboard, all of that is behind museum glass which is held in place by small strips of matboard around the edges. |

Made it super easy to explain to the framer exactly what i wanted. Tiles against the glas, bag folded to fit in the back. No glue used so fully reversible if needed.

That looks perfect, great job.
Really need to get mine framed. Anyone in London recommend a framer who could do something like this?

One of the best frame jobs I've seen here. May inspire me to get this print just to duplicate.

At some point I may pay to get them custom framed but for now they look fine in my office in store bought frames...

You want to take it out? It looks pretty good to me. Only consideration would be what kind of light it's in. All my Invaders are under UV glass
