i guess thats why they are starving artists. its funny, he could have probably commisioned the actual artist of the Marvel pictures and gotten a non crazy estimate. i would have just found a high rez image and had it custom printed to the size i wanted and then had it framed.
or google a wall mural

244 bucks

Absolutely not. He had done a previous 3 foot x 3 foot for me for $450 that came out really well, he picked the image, it looked amazing. A 6 foot x 5 foot is less than 4 times the size, I would have thought the price would be less than 4 x $450, but it ended up being way more. In the text today, he said he thought it should be $4320 ($1 per square inch) then realized it would be way too much, so went down to some formula per linear inch that came up with the $2600 figure. I've just moved my other home paintings around and have filled the void where Groot/Rocket/Thor would have gone, so unfortunately this journey is ending.

All i know from this thread is that neither painters nor the people who buy paintings could ever be Math majors.

This scifi art is pants on head retarded. Seriously, half you faggots need to learn what real art is and find better ways to spend your money.

no probs. these arent paintings though, but at least when you get sick of one you can always switch it out for another. Marvel is super popular and you could probably find Marvel themes for anything.

Those wall murals are generated photoshops for the purposes of the sales page. Don't assume that it's going to look that good, or that it's going to arrive from China intact.

A friend of mine is probably one of the leading expert in the world when it comes to movie posters. Among the things I gathered from our discussions that might not be obvious are the followings : Many poster formats are multi sheets. Most posters are folded, so a vintage movie poster that spent decades folded will have visible fold marks. An authentic movie poster is usually damaged because it has been part of exploitation material, so it got sent to theaters and hang there with staples or pins, before being unstapled/unpinned and sent back to the distributor. Another potential blemish is censor stamp.
