depends on who you find and how they work things. Like i said you need to get a feel for the artist and see how they handle things.

For me i just dive into it knowing it could go south, but it could end up amazing. id rather take a gamble on someone who has a drive to get a name and recognition in the hobby.

like some artists may give you some sketches and ideas and then you can pick what you want, some will just ask for reference poses etc. some will just do what they want and thats it. just get a feel and try, its life and never know

Thank you for your help. I guess I'll try someone who seems reputable and take a chance.

no problem good luck

there is also this site too, has a lot of artists

https://www.artstation.com

i been roaming it a lot lately too, tons of great artists out there that are looking for work.

so i know we are comic fans but never know if a 3D artist could do a cool render and position a char for ya. just so many options these days if you actually think outside the box a bit

I may get the Leia print, but just can't pull the trigger right now with no discount. It's not moving anyways. So I will be patient and wait.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Seems they don't. On top of that something I didn't notice at first was pointed out to me. His left shoe looks like a right shoe. I stared at it for awhile and after that and it can't be unseen. The combo of that, fake Jordans, and a heel on the shoe are a big let down.

I agree, No J’s, Right shoe on his left foot, heel on shoe is a deal breaker! Amazing art work, but to print them with those mistakes is not good and is an easy pass for me.

Get the Jordan license! I hate when they make products without the license.. I was pissed when Marty had no Nike Mags logos, no Mattel logo on hoverboard either. Get the license greedo’s..

Hello,

I have never bought an art print from Sideshow and was wondering if I could ask some newbie question.

Is the frame from Sideshow high quality? I ask because its more than twice the cost of the print itself.

How is this print? Its the one that has me interested. As someone below said, I would have gone for the statue, but I am not sure I like the face. The art print on the other hand looks gorgeous!
