First my Mouse Guard one. I bought the Original version of the Service - Greater Than Self And Sword and decided to frame it with the print. I was a little worried about how this would turn out based on the design suggestions from the employee at Michaels, but I think it turned out really well. It's a lot larger in width than I was expecting, so now I need to either reorganize the frames in my den or hang this somewhere different. I have a Mouse Guard wall, so I'm thinking a reorg will probably happen.

Up next is the water color commission I got my wife from Brian Miller - Jem and the Holograms. This was a surprise purchase for her and she was ECSTATIC. Framing it was a little more difficult than we expected. The plan was to find something "totally 80s" but Michaels didn't have a lot of wild and crazy colors to choose from.
The finished product, however, does look really nice. The frame is a lot more teal in person - I blame the lighting in our library.

So grateful we got this during a 70% sale, because the before sale price of the Mouse Guard framing was over $800! I believe Jem was in the $400 range. I understand framing cam be expensive, but DAMN! That's a bit too rich for my blood.
