The order for priority tubes I made in mid June still hasn't arrived a month later.  I goosed the USPS with a phone call and I was told the order for 20 medium tube/boxes is "in progress".  I'm hoping that means they are arriving soon.....can't ship anything until then.  I am hand delivering SeatoSky's print this week and might deliver Gus Landt's as I will be going to Denton next week, but we are stuck until then.  If things start taking too long I do have a box of small priority tube/boxes I could use, but it would mean using a hacksaw to cut 2-3 inches off the brown mailing tubes (not with the prints in them, obviously) to fit them inside....I'll do this if there are many more delays.  Anyway, the last 15 will just have to wait, sorry, hopefully the priority tubes will be in by the end of the month at the latest!

Here's who I haven't shipped yet; if your name isn't on this list and you haven't gotten your print let us know....Frank's was just put into the mail Monday, and there are probably a couple of overseas/out of country ones that haven't arrived yet, but otherwise you should have received your print if you are not on this list:

Improv
Gus Landt
Lokiwookie
TollhouseGolem
xRalphx
Seany
Rhynne
Tharizdun
Red Wizard
Rabbitt67
Kgreene
Cimmerian
Mrmanowar
Chucho68
Chrisdeputron

Hey Badmike,

Thanks for the update.

Well at least I know I'm on the list for the last 15. :)

Best regards,
Ronald

We have an answer from the author.  The title is, "Beholder Attack!"  He confessed that he viewed himself as the worst at coming up with art titles, but it works for me.  

I'm not that good at coming up with titles myself, but I might have chosen, "Burning is in the Eye of the Beholder," or "Behold the Pale Monster," (a reference to the Biblical book of Revelation), or "Shootout at the Acaeum" (the mini-module title).  Anyway, we're not about to have a title contest and the artist has spoken.  Beholder Attack it is.   8)

Too late for me to get the title included on the plate.  However, I like all of your titles better than the author title.

I believe there is one Otus print left to be auctioned at NTX, number 65 of 65!   However, Badmike would need to verify that.  8)

Yes we have one framed copy of the EO print, Hector, #65. If you come to the con I'll see that it's auctioned off that year!  How's that for an invitation?  :D

I always called the print "Cataclysm at the Acaeum", dont' know why I started calling it that.

It was mailed on the 11th,  Ed, and I just checked the tracking...cleared through customs on the 16th.  Should get it any day now!

Sweet.  Thank you.  I'm leaving tomorrow morning for Los Angeles - and will be gone for ten days - but I'll post here when I get back and confirm my receiving it.

We have a winner in the who-can-show-off-their-frame-first contest!   Me!    :oops:

Here's how the print looks relative to my other ALEAC print in my man cave.

Here's a closer look at the frame and matting:

And here's an up close look at the matting.  The outer matting has a suede look:

I am pleased!   :D

You should be pleased.  Well done.

Hopefully I will have a pic of mine up within a week or so.

Looks super, bj. I am going to make framing mine a birthday-present-to-self in September. Framing is bloody expensive! Hope others will post their framed prints so I can steal their color schemes.

Glad you like it.  It took the framer and I about twenty minutes or longer to come up with the matting color scheme.  While I love the art, it really doesn't have a wide range of colors.  I hope other people will post their frame jobs as well.   8)

Got mine back from the framers tonight.  It looks fantastic, but you will have to wait for a pic.  Try to get one up this week.
