Just got this back from the framing shop. 
I'm going to put up some picture hooks and mount it later.
When will we get a preview of the upcoming Virtua Fighter piece?

A small preview (cut-out) of the final 24 x 36 pieces.

Sonic. By pixel art king Paul Veer (of Nuclear Throne, Luftrausers fame and everything Vlambeer really).

Nice frame job!
The Phantasy Star one too. A nice matte makes all the difference.

, thanks!Our complete SEGA collection with the currently available pieces can be found here: https://www.candb.com/en/artcollectivegallery/49/sega.html
Next week the Virtua Fighter and Sonic prints will be added to the mix. Shortly after a Space Harrier one and we're currently scouting for artists for new pieces after that.
We hope to have at least one new print from a top artist each month.

Thanks. These are only small cut-outs from a part of the full image. Have to wait a bit yet to show the full size pieces.
Looks amazing! Taking a deep breath as I consider going with the dibond option...With a slight delay but almost done now: our upcoming Virtua Fighter and Sonic Pieces. They will soon be up on www.candb.com

Unfortunately, the amazing artist Veronique Mignaud who was/is working on Space Channel, couldn't finish the piece this summer due to sad family circumstances. She will finish the piece later but I don't have an other estimate release date yet.

Looks great. Worthy of such a great classic game.

That VF piece with the Dibond Acrylic will look astonishing. An outlay for sure but I'm 100% sure you'll love it.
VF piece is up, comes in 2 colors, limited to 60 prints

Whoa. I love this take on Akira, Lau, and Pai. VF6 needs a refreshed look for the characters similar to this.

Oh maaaaan - Eng is doing it?!? @_@
Can't wait.

VF and Sonic ones look great. Can't wait to see Space Harrier.

For the Sonic print the artist Paul Veer also did a 'Making off' video. There's one for John Sweeney's Shenmue print on our channel as well. Is this something we should keep doing in the future or not?

Loved the making-of video. It was great to see the image come to life, as well as the different techniques and revisions.
I check this thread almost daily now just to see if any sneak peeks at Eng's Space Harrier have been posted.

The virtua fighter remix style is my favorite though. Not sure of the artist's name.
I recently did an art extraction of VF for The Video Game Art Archive, so there's now some super good quality versions of that art out there now

A little off topic, but can anyone recommend a decent 24x36 metal frame for these? Preferably white?
I can't pay to get 5 of these framed professionally, so I'm looking for something decent to do myself.
Another option I was thinking about was a frameless frame - but can't seem to find anything of decent quality...

To the extent it doesn't delay/affect production of the posters, I couldn't care less. If it does, then I would vote no.

any chance of doing something with the snes classic axelay ? its such a good looking game and would look incredible as a piece...

that reminds me that shoothem'up wise : a Thunder Force would just be surreal as a SEGA classic.
I am sure there are some artists who would love to do one.

That is by Katsuya Terada. One of the all time greats. Did a lot of Zelda work in the NES days. You should google his Black Marker drawings. Amazing.
We've been a bit slow to release (will pick up again though) but here's the good news: We're going to be doing the exact same program with Konami on their classic game titles! I expect to be able to announce the list of games within two weeks or so.

Awesome news about Konami - Twin Bee gets my vote!
BTW - how long till Space Harrier?

and finally i might have context for why they changed "Ken" to "AARZAK" in the Last Battle

what are the SEGA titles in the pipeline ?

Well THAT's a bummer. Is the issue resolvable or is the Space Harrier piece dead? If it's dead, do you think you'll be able to work with Eng on another SEGA property?

This will probably please some people as it has been much delayed and anticipated... A small preview sample of a part of Kilian's Eng's Space Harrier print that is going live next Monday finally at www.candb.com

I like the phantasy star piece. 115 is steep but if it's that good then might be worth it.

It's a 36 x 24" with an even small white order on all sides this time
Like our Golden Axe, VF and Shinobi ones.
Awesome - cant wait for Monday!
