This is a very cool multi-layered acrylic print from Bottleneck Gallery. I wasn't really sure what to expect from this piece and bought it on a whim.

It's actually pretty amazing in person. There are three layers of acrylic and it pulls off the 3-D effect quite well.

The colours are rich and vibrant, and there are no signs of bubbling or any other anomaly.

I love the glossy look of the acrylic, and I think it can be mounted as is with command strips.

That's cool. This closeup shot on their site appears to show the thickness of the layers on Wolverine, pretty wild.




I got my Jaws acrylic lenticular print from Bottleneck...



Oh, and command strips work great, I'm a fan

Bet the Tron lenicular is pretty rad too.

Wish I could see the acrylic vs lenticular in person.

That Jaws print is incredible! Did you get the lit frame to go with it? That's another thing I had to get a thrid party involved with because they won't ship that frame directly to Canada.

The Tron Lenticular is awesome too.

Here is the Storm Trooper one I got from Bottleneck. Like the Xmen Acrylic, it's a stand out piece because of the different medium used.

Not the lit frame. I think the Jaws print (up for order in 2020) was one of their first lenticular prints, and they actually offered to have it framed there before they shipped it out, so I chose that option. I got the 1mm version as opposed to the more expensive 4mm "Plex" version, so I'm curious if there's much of a notable difference between the two...I believe they only do the 4mm now?

That's a great one! They've had some fantastic lenticular releases...I'm hoping they offer a cool Indiana Jones lenticular at some point.
