Those are pretty hilarious.

"No no, it's a popular misconception that the Satanus card means you're necessarily going to be eaten by a black tyrannosaur. It can often just indicate a phase in your life when it's the important to carry a boot-knife at all times".

Empress Hershey's* got very nice eyes though.

*Or possibly Dekker

If he gets off they'd better be careful of how to discharge the case. Z

Those are a rare sort of genius - Fink as The Hermit and James Grubb as The Hanged Man!

We could have the Ulysses Suite. Z

I'd be impressed by those Tarrot cards if the person selling them had done the artwork themselves, but a lot of it I've stumbled across on Google Images, Deviant Art and so on. So it's clearly not their artwork on the front of those cards.

I created a set of 12 ACEO cards around a popular TV series a while back, but I sold the original cards and not copies. To my mind selling an original is one thing but selling multiple copies equals a product and a product should pay royalties etc.

how about a pillow case or a throw for your bedroom or some cheap looking t-shirts

I dont know if these have been featured before (It's hard to keep up, once the thread page count grows...), but someone was hawking these about ($220 and they kindly offered the e-mail, so you could grab one) over on the Judge Dredd facebook page..

Link to offending FB post here.

Process posts about having it made, including a statement of intention to sell here.

For 1:3 scale, and that price, it's not exactly great.

[strangelysaucy]

actually it's worse -

"special offer is only on until the end of February discount cost is $220 plus $60 shipping from Thailand the regular price will be $290 plus shipping."
