Ok. Invoices will go out later tonite. I actually already sent one to listerfeend. But I also want to be sure everyone knows about the differences between the JPEG and what they will receive. I think it's important to note after that Ghost in the Shell incident. I suspect printing will begin late next week.
Neogaf Commission #1: Metal Gear Solid - Gray Fox (Silver) by ash Thorp
1. Instead of Gray, the color of the background is Stardream Silver -- which is the paper color as can be seen here:

2. Every ink color will have metallics.
3. There will be an invisible gloss layer over the text. This gloss layer will be printed using UV Cured ink, and sent through a UV curing machine. With this process, the UV inks will actually rise up, so you can feel it when you run your fingers over it.
4. Depending on whether it looks better or not, there may or may not be a layer of varnish over the rest of the inks.

The differences between jpeg and the screenprint will hopefully make the screenprint better than the jpeg. The biggest difference is the background color of print #1, so if you really wanted gray w/o metallics, let me know and I can arrange for a change or a refund.
