Ha. I see what you did. I'm still hoping Prometheus gets picked by our artist. I don't even remember what our choice was. I think it definitely wasn't Dredd. Ghostbusters maybe?

Dead on. Looking back the top 5 was

Ghostbusters
Maude
Star Wars
Robocop
On Golden Pond

Was Dread even mentioned?

Well, I saw Dredd and must say it was better than I expected. Will be an interesting movie to make a print out of as I don't know if there are any iconic moments in the movie.

I was hoping for an original depiction of the character or overall plot line, in lieu of a representation of any specific scene within the film.

Semi Spoilers for those who have not seen the movie


Even with a montage type or plot line I think it's a toughy as it is limited in location.


Makes me curious though to see what someone with creativity would be able to come up with.

The actual movie poster is very well done

So, I don't want to push him ( since he made it clear to me that he was swamped), don't want him to feel like I'm hassling him and he tells me to sod off.

I found the voting very exciting and fun, lets just not get ahead of ourselves as we have a bit of time on our hands. Sorry to start the thread so early, I was pumped!!

My first time dealing with a commission and I had no idea what juggling dates pain the ass it could be.

My apologies to everyone.

With the Rupee currency value in India plummeting in the last couple of months, I am fine having to wait until 2014 to get my commission print. Hopefully by then the Dollar/Rupee ratio returns to a better position, so it doesn't cost me more dearly like it does now.

Early half of 2013 was a much better time for collectors in India to do their international shopping in dollars than it is today.

Has the name of the artist been revealed?

No, and it probably won't be until the commission is completed.
