So I went into central london (as I generally do on a Saturday) and grabbed some comics. While we’re on the train, Stathis tells me we should go via Old Street to grab my prints from Constandinos. I actually got a small tingle in the back of my neck when he said this. Words cannot describe how amazing it felt to actually see my prints there ready to go. I hinted at this at the beginning of the year, start my limited edition print shop. I’ve been building towards this point for a good long while now.

Ages ago I had the idea of creating a small shop where I’d provide things that I myself would want to own. I see a lot of Cafepress shops around the place, and I can’t imagine lots of people buying things from them. The reason being that the actual items aren’t really all that appealing. It’s like a half assed effort on the owner’s part. They stick a logo on a mug and sell it for $15 plus postage, screw that for a laugh. I’d never sell something that I myself wouldn’t buy. If I decide to have a T-shirt on offer, you’ll be sure I’ve done it so that I can wear it myself, before I try to sell it off to anyone.

The first item on offer is the very first

CoCo Limited Edition Print

Any print I decide to offer will have a print run limited to a maximum of 10 copies. The first copy will be mine (like the one pictured above), which reduces the number down to 9 copies to be sold. Since they’re coming from me directly I’ll sign and number them, on the front or back depending on the actual person’s preferance. This thing measures slightly larger than your typical A3 paper, and the paperstock is a fantastically thick 250msg. Costandinos, you sir, ROCK.

Once they’re gone, that’s it I guess. So if you’re interested go over to the shop.
