This just upsets me that we're probably not getting an Insomniac/Suzuki collab and a new Space Harrier out of that.
Instead we get SHENMUE 3.

I'm kind of torn on what i would want from the virtua fighter print if it happens.
The blocky 3d style like the arcade marquee for 1 and 2 is awesome and iconic.
But there is great original art for the series as well.
The virtua fighter remix style is my favorite though. Not sure of the artist's name.

What about Panzer Dragoon Orta? It was made by Smilebit, which was a second-party, not a first-party. Smilebit eventually got re-absorbed by Sega, but after Orta came out.
There's this on the Smilebit Wikipedia page:
*shrugs* Wonder if that has something to do with it...Wikipedia said:

that's a real bummer ... ( this explains why we don't have anything related to PD out from SEGA)
Panzer is begging for being made into one of those fine piece of art. The design, the world, the color scheme ...
Does that mean, it was given up or it is just a lengthy process due to this complexity ?
I will buy 2 copies if you guys pull it through

Aren't there PD stages in Sonic & All-Stars Racing?

I'll take that. Sega must have the rights to that at least if they were able to release Orta many years after the original Trilogy.

Wow - did anyone know this previously? Might mean we'll never see an HD collection (as if there was ever any actual hope)
Would love to see what you guys could do with that - please kee trying.
But fuuuuck I cant wait for that NiGHTS image

That's a surprise. I'd love to know the story behind that.
I guess there is no hope for a nice 20th anniversary print...
Psycho Echidna
Member
you are correct ... Unless the artist from C&B is planning to use the Moebius art from the Japanese boxart, it should be similar to SASRT.
I am really puzzled to hear SEGA says they do not fully own Panzer.
I hope the team will figure it out...

Confusing for us too. As mentioned above, they did Panzer Dragoon Orta years after PD came out.
Obviously we'll keep trying anyway but this does explain the relative lack of PD products out of SEGA.
Katsuya Terada worked on Virtua Fighter? That is awesome. Terada's artwork goes for thousands of dollars (google Terada Black Marker drawings). I'm definitely going to chase that up
Gerald Parel, who did our Golden Axe piece https://www.candb.com/en/artwork/1193/golden-axe-sega.html is very interested in doing a VF work as well.

Thanks for continuing to push Sega - a PD Orta print would do nicely.

Want to get the Shenmue print, but it won't let me complete the registration process. =/
hmm, so vf piece hasn't started yet? I'll stop ritualistically checking this thread for the time being thenConfusing for us too. As mentioned above, they did Panzer Dragoon Orta years after PD came out.

So just curious for the Sonic 2 one was Paul Veer doing the print for that?

Terada fans most likely already know about this, but if any of you out there like his work, pick up Dragon Girl + Monkey King...it's phenomenal.

Sign up for our newsletter (only one every three weeks or so, only about new releases). We announce new prints and release via our newsletter first. That will save you refreshing this thread every day
Besides we'll be doing new SEGA prints every few weeks for at least the next two years!
CookBeck

Yes, Paul Veer (Nuclear Throne, Luftrausers etc. ) is working on at least one Sonic print. A very cool one. Should be done this summer.

Is there a limited run to these pieces? I just saw this thread and fell in love with the Phantasy Star artwork, but I'm short on cash at the moment.
Yes they are limited to 200 each
CookBeck
Member
Yes, these are limited editions. And we never do reprints. That being said the Phantasy Star is a limited edition of 200 and we sold about 120 so far so there are still enough left.
From the regular sized Shenmue we have 30 left now after a week. Last day tomorrow by the way for the Kickstarter deal we have (because the KS ends on the 18th) for Shenmue.
Lightning Count

How long does it take usually for the finished item to be shipped, still waiting on that Shenmue print.
Lightning Count
Member
Just received my Shenmue print, going to get it framed and I will upload a pic. =D
Lightning Count
Member
Unfortunately I now have to wait about a fortnight while they have the frame custom built for my print, I also left the print itself in the care of the framing shop as they need to keep it until then so the frame can be sized and fitted exactly.

Hey, did you like the print?
Small update: the Sonic print, the Virtua Fighter one and a first Space Channel 5 print are pretty close to release and will be up at at our site soon.
And for those interested: this show (it's in Dutch but the footage speaks for itself) does an unboxing of two of the SEGA prints: Shenmue and the Jet Set Radio one. Action at 04:50

Any teasers?
also, does 'soon' mean one week from now or several hours from now? I'm gunning for a low #'d VF print!
I love the pure 80's ness of this digital painting inspired by Outrun from UK Artist 'Bones'. Details such as the license plates and checkpoint sign are nice touches, although the image would benefit from either the removal of the outrun text, or the inclusion of the official Outrun title logo.
http://artbybones.com/gallery.htm
There's a few other game related art works in his gallery so take a look.
Kind of disappointed in this one, TBH. It's not 80's ENOUGH, Out Run of all games, should have an airbrushed piece, with desert chrome text and neon and super blue skies and super green palm trees and bright red Ferrari. There's New Retro Wave albums with artwork that does a better job of capturing that flavor than this piece.
EDIT: NVM I thought this was part of the Sega prints series, didn't realize this was just a fan piece. I do like his Zombies Ate My Neighbors piece on his site tho.

PLEASE don't screw these up... *first* SC5 print [hmmmmmmm]
Soon is more like a week from now (and maybe even a bit later if we run into some approvals delay). I'll make sure to post here immediately when the VF one goes up.
Hard to tease these really
You mentioned that Gerald Parel was interested in doing the VF piece - was he the one who ended up working on it?
CookBeck
Member
Yes, he's doing the first VF print.
And we've got Veronique Meignaud working on Space Channel 5. She's perfect for it (in my humble opinion of course)

Is this for only the shenmue print? What's the upcharge?
it's available for all prints for about $500 extra. I'll probably go for it depending on how I like the vf print!

OUCH, thanks.
for some perspective, check this video which details the process. It's done by hand, takes several days, and the result is "museum-grade".
CookBeck
Member
Top quality framing and/or mounting is expensive I'm afraid but yeah, you get a museum-grade artwork (which means to museum-quality archival standards for contemporary art). That said, I've seen some shockingly poor things in museums
We will introduce a 'metal-backed' print later in the year that is significantly lower in price if you are just looking for an affordable, easy to hand solution but still has that archival standard.
