Good lord, Scott! That is easily the best frame setup I've seen of that print. And I've seen quite a few.

Huge congrats. You nailed it.

Thanks guys.

Just finished hanging this on my wall next to my Stout Kill Bill & Blade Runner. Man does it look sick. I can't stop staring at it.

Newly framed prints. The glass will be upgraded later to museum glass. Sorry for the poor quality pictures.

Just saw your post on EB too. Great stuff ONEYE. That Dracula is just sick!

You're really getting the hang of this framing thing. At this rate you're going to need another house to hang all these though.

Well, I have to stop. I've got prints in for framing, but once those are done, I'm done. I figure I can line the walls of of the stairway downstairs to the basement where my collection will be displayed. Some prints may be there as well. I'll have some prints in the TV/living room. Next house I buy will have the collection space as a major consideration.

Those are some extremely sexy frame setups you've got there, ONEYE. Love the choice of mats.

Thanks! I'm new at it. It takes me 30-45 minutes to finally make a decision. I average going through at least 10 different frames, and mattes about 15. I decide on the matting first, then the frame. There is no right or wrong way to do this. Some are easy, like the frame for Dracula, I wanted to have something mimic the windows. The matte matches the woman's clothing texture. Other prints are agony. Especially the Creature from the Black Lagoon! The colors are really unique.

I like your process. I do things much the same. Though I must say 30-45 min. to make a decision is pretty fast, at least for me.

My last trip to the framers I took two prints, my KT Halloween variant and my Stout Big Trouble in Little China. I spent about 3 hrs. there playing with different combinations before settling. Halloween was pretty fast (45 min. or so) since I knew going in exactly what I wanted to do. BTiLC took forever. I must have went through 20-30 different combinations before settling. I find the whole process very enjoyable though and quite rewarding, even addicting.

ONEYE - I moved your posts to the "Show off your framed posters/prints" thread. The "General Posters & Prints" thread is pretty high traffic and I didn't want your pics to get lost in there.
