I bid on that OE sign about 6 months ago I think.

If you bought that on ebay just be glad I forgot about the auction.

That is a real acrylic painting by the artist XNO on stretched canvas that I commissioned him to do for me, my idea and his talent. A lot of people have been diggin’ it, I have had few people PM me asking about it thinking it was a poster. Man… I should get some prints done.  ;) I'm glad you like it, still considering having a frame put around it.

Thanks! That neon sign really does the trick perfectly. I would love to get some of that anti-glare glass for my pinball machine as I get a little off the neon. It's not really bad at all and you only notice it if you are trying to pick it out. I really notice the glare more from the display on the pin rather than the neon which is a good thing.

Also just took the plug from the neon and ran it strait down the wall, I think it looks a lot better.  :)

If you're going to sell them, make sure you check out the propriety of that. Just because you commissioned it doesn't necessarily mean you own the rights to it. Maybe not at all.

I agree. Prints should be done by the artist, not the owner of the painting.

I am friends with the artist, that is for me and him to decide, thanks for you input on the matter.

Since you guys are digging the painting I will share another piece of art with you of mine, this one has already been published.

It's a jam between Jay Lynch (Garbage Pail Kids/ Wacky Packages/ Underground Comix Artist) and Kim Deitch (Pretty much the same as Jay).

I figure some of you are maybe familiar with Jay's work and Kim's father is Gene Deitch, he did some Tom and Jerry Cartoons in the 60s I believe.
