      Got mine today. "Freaking awesome" doesn't even begin to describe them.
      Also, I totally agree; if you do a second series and there's no Portal-related option, tears will be shed.

      I received my two posters - Big Daddy and Mario and wow! They look great. I love the printing of them. They have a textured look and in fact feel like one of a king posters. Thanks for the numbering and signing. Great job Justin!

      Yes- Like Andrew said... get with the making and I'll get with the paying. LOL.

      Swwwweeeeeeeeet!
      The posters are almost shipping, it feels like a second christmas :D
      I think I speak for many people when I say, I find anything Portal related difficult to resist.

      Awesome work, and I can't wait to get my posters. If I could pick another game this might work for it would probably be Portal, GLADOS has so many lines that word work and the simple art style seems like it would gell with yours. Anyways, I'm also curious if you've heard of Zazzle.com, as it seems like it might be a good way to get your stuff out there with little hassle to you. I've only used them for shirts for myself, but if you don't want to bother with a printer and such for your other designs it might be a good way to easily get it out there.

      @Justin. Sounds good, they're all amazing, I'm surprised the MGS poster wasn't more popular though. You've got my pledge and congrats on the great work.

      Justin on April 10, 2010

      @Jamaal

      Currently, these three are the only ones being printed. Considering their popularity, I may do a second series using the other designs. Nothing it planned right now, but it depends how smoothly the process of getting these printed and shipped will go.

      What's the beef with the comma placement, exactly?

      Jamaal Scarlett on April 10, 2010

      Justin, do we have to choose from these three? What if I want one of the other posters you've made?

    18. Me2.thumb
      Justin on April 10, 2010

      The comma placement on the Bioshock poster will be fixed for the print run. Thanks Chris!

      Amazing work, Mr. Russo! Congratulations on the big success. Also, the comma placement on the Big Daddy poster is bugging me ... but I'll still pick that one anyway! :-D

      michael buncher on April 8, 2010

      I too would like the bioshock and mario ones. I was really hoping his deadspace would be an option too! A signature would be nice, but it might slightly ruin the minimal nature of the posters. Still, it'd be awesome. I'm happy to back these awesome posters either way.

      David on April 8, 2010

      These are going fast! I hope for some more because I really liked some of the other posters too. Also, signing (and numbering) is a grand idea :]

      @Robert Burgess and @Alfredo Richner - Two awesome ideas because inevitably this will be huge and he'll become famous and having them signed and numbered for the original batch would be amazing.

      Saw this on Joystiq. Completely badass. Is there a way to specify posters? I'm hoping for Bioshock and Mario, but any of the three would be spec-freakin' tacular. Either way, outstanding work, Justin!!!
