    Thanks Ben! I have a few things I want to get framed before I retire, because it's some damn expensive LOL!!

      Yep. It is over the top expensive. I try and catch Michaels when they are having a 50% off sale. It happens a few times a year I think.

        Framing is just ridiculous! The last two things we got framed (somewhere in this thread) we got done at Michael's and lucked into a 70% off weekend, otherwise it would been about $1300 for the two pieces we got done.

        I really wished I knew how to do it, but if I had the time to learn, I'd probably learn to make slipcases for books instead. Seems more management and I know I need/want a lot of slipcases and they don't up as much room as framing all of my art.

          Yep. I am out of wall space anyway. So I have three of four things that I would like to frame however there is no room left in my library. Its been very difficult not buying a few items, which I really wanted, but I know I have nowhere to put them. Saved on the initial purchase and the framing! Woot!

            Received Bryan Smith's THE LAST OF THE RAVAGERS today completing my Thunderstorm/Death's Head Splatter Western set. Volume 1 of this series is complete, but it sounds like the two publishers are teaming up for another 13 book set.

              Congrats, I really like those but I went the paperback route. Well done!

                Thanks! I debated a long time about whether to jump on this set, because the paperbacks are nice and almost seem to be more fitting format for this line of books. Obviously, I broke down and went this route, picking up one a month through Thunderstorm and I'm glad I did as I like them quite a bit.

                    Very nice. Love the cover art on those.

                      I've made it about 1/3 through the collection and it's solid so far. It has a young authors feel to it with a little raw grittiness in the stories. On a side note I think I came across this book because someone was going to do a limited of it.

                      Does anyone else have this recollection or am I misremembering things? Otherwise I have no idea how I came across this book or author.

                      Would love to hear a review of this once you have read it. That blurb from the intro by Michael Marshall Smith has me very close to picking this one up.

                        Don't know about a limited edition, but, I remember first hearing about this one in a Subterranean Press direct email. They were not publishing it, but, wanted to point it out as a book they were excited about from a new author. They also pointed out the Michael Marshall Smith intro, and I am a huge fan of his stuff; so, my interest was immediately peaked. Glad to hear that it is good so far. Hope it stays strong as it is still on my radar for sure.

                          Maybe that is what I was reading. Thanks for replying. At least I'm not completely nuts. LOL

                                Times like this I wish I was into fantasy because Grim Oak really seems to put out some nice editions...congrats on adding one to your collection.
