So it's very coordinated hype then? Certainly is, reminds me of the way souled out studio work to be honest. Why do Souled Out Studios have 70 stockists/galleries selling their releases on their behalf? If you divide a numbered edition by 70 stockists it's hardly surprising they sell out ......or am missing something?

I think the entire run has gone, I did mean more of they don't show the image until release drop more than how quickly it sells out

Great Machine, quite a lot to do on it, not the easiest of games i have come across either but very 'bright' and what you would expect from a machine based on WoZ quite feminine/happy clappy aha.

Just checked in on this thread and it's pure unadulterated shite art. Now for the image above, this guy should be locked up in the Tower.. He's also lucky that the Diana Forever Forum is no more, as those members made Isis look like the girl guides.

Best pin ever made in my opinion the yanks go mad for it as they love the theme , it doesnt resonate that much with the UK market as the theme leaves most including myself cold , but put theme aside its an awesome table

Taste's a funny thing. I quite like that. I think it's reasonably well executed and I like the purple eyes. It'd go in my toilet, bu more for my opinion on royals, than the quality of the work... Ha ha. That would look awesome in anyone's toilet. I get that we all like different things in the things we like and dislike and have different tastes especially when It comes to art but every time I've looked at the JJ Adams royal prints I've always thought even if you liked the image where in the hell would hang it. Especially the Diana print. It looks as though it belongs in a pink house. Never occurred to me the absolute perfect place is the toilet.

I really like the Diana as well... The thing with a lot of the stuff J J does is in the details , the first thing to capture me was when I was looking at buying the Leia tattoo print and I noticed the catchlight of Her eyes was actually an X-wing and Death Star sooooo cool.... And all the other little geeky hidden bits in all his work is great. Find it sad that people can just come out and call it shit, isn't art supposed to be a personal thing and everyone likes different stuff? My mate sent me a pic of a miss bugs print that he thought i might like, I thought it looked like a girl with a decapitated head , with weird crebal paulsey hands surrounded by little asteroid space ships , and I wouldnt pay £1 for it, but I respect it and can understand why others would , I certainly wouldn't just come out and say it's fucking dog shit... Can't understand the hate for J J here? Very odd... Naughty people you naughty

Welcome to an urban art forum lol don't take views to seriously mate.if people think it's shit then they can say it's shit It's just good members are now commenting on the artwork and not about investment. It's nothing personal to the artist in most cases, also depends on how many beers are consumed while online

Naughty people you naughty Miss Bugs are an interesting example as they highlight artists that have been around for a good few years and have developed and learnt their craft. In that time they have produced loads of innovative installations and street pieces, plus they've worked worked in loads of medias and generally pushed creative boundaries. Obviously it's not to everyone's taste but their craftsmanship can't be faulted. On the other hand this Adam's appears to be a lazy photoshopper riding high on creating faux 'urban pop art'. As mentioned it's nothing more than Athena posters.

Nobody really knows anyone on here (unless you really know people on here), and people like allsorts and collect different things for different reasons. Everyone can have their say, but at some point, you might have to just agree to disagree and walk away as forum friends. At the end of the day, all we really have is each other on here. Society doesn't want us.

The more i am looking at JJ work the more appreciation i am having for it (even the stuff not featuring star wars references aha) I wouldn't go so far to calling him "Lazy" cause i can imagine these pieces would take a ridiculous amount of time perfecting on the computer programs he uses, it is comparable to say that of someone cutting a stencil for hours upon hours on end. I myself would love to have this level of skill to be able to create such detailed work and i mean if anyone here are able to do this level of work themselves....teach me.....please! aha

bad Robot, are you tell me your not a fan of iron Maiden, and that denim on denim (the Canadian tuxedo) with a buisness at the front,party at the back hairstyle, is not considered the height of style?
Wow, just wow,

Iron Maiden, that brings back memories of youth...stale donuts, army barrack cameras, calor gas cannisters, slug pellet supernoodles, smoked sausage cheese, the ears have walls, ladders, little rabbit little rabbit, waking up in bed with best mate(head to toe i should add) with soldiers standing over us with guns, coffee...repeat

Anyone have information on what the galleries pre-selling the pieces are selling them for ?

Try westover in Bournemouth, they have only just started to sell his work so won't have a big collector base
