    I *do* like canvas though... Why am I using this stuff again? Cheap-o-sity?

    Holy shit dude. The two big landscape ones are rather nice. Raaaather. Nice.

    I need to get working on the thing we talked about so that it happens before you get too HUGE to bother with small fry printer types. Yowza!!

    Way to go robots! It's no wonder these are selling.

    It would be real nice to have prints as Napp already said. I think those would sell quite well.

    I am hearing you on the prints. I'm not sure I'd know where to start.

    Step 1. Good photo
    Step 2. Good print on good stock
    Step 3. ?
    Step 4. Profit!

    Like that...?

    Might give it a shot. Would you prime the entire surface, back and front? Because I think I used some of that in highschool and it wound up absorbing a bunch of moisture somehow.

    Yeah, the entire surface. You have to seal it since it's not acid-free. I guess the appeal is that it's smoother so you can be more detailed (you don't have the canvas texture) and it's cheap yeah.

    Oh good lord, your stuff is amazing. I love how you use so many geometrical shapes in your designs.

    Also, quick question. How do you get your lines and shapes to be so neat? Whenever I paint with acrylic, shit gets everywhere D:

    Thanks :D Probably a combination of tools and technique... Good paint, the right brushes, and cutting back in to shapes with other colours.
