So I have been patiently waiting for a package to show up and in the meantime I have increased my Priest collection with the super deluxe version, the deluxe version and 3 copies of the standard cd. Nothing like being an addicted Priest whore with a few extra bucks in his pocket. Well today I got the ultimate fix when I saw what was waiting for me. A tube from Essex had made the journey across the pond safe n sound. These new additions make the collection up to date and now I must get them framed and on the wall. Here are a few quick pics I took this afternoon. Let me first say that I know I always say how awesome these prints are and what a cool cat Mark is but I damn near pissed down both legs when I saw the 4 Horsemen print for the first time. All bullshitting aside this is, IMO, the best work to date that Mark has done for Priest. This print is larger than the rest I have and really shows alot of the detail missed when the image was shrunk down to fit the cd. I had no idea the White horse had such vicious teeth or the eye color of the Red Rider. The Nostradamus print follows the theme of the other prints in size. Much smaller than the 4 Horsemen but the colors are pretty incredible. The eyes are the definite focal point of the print. Almost so bright they give the illusion of being lit. Damn near feels like someone is watching you. Glad my days of abusing illegal substances are behind me cause this print would freak me out. I am sure for all the detractors of this release will jump all over this comment but once you pull away from the eyes the print is about as deep and layered as the music. Always finding something new with each and every look. All in all I am very satisfied with the prints I received and would with out a doubt advise anyone interested in them to pick up a copy of either print. If I had to pick one of the other it would be with out hesitation the 4 Horsemen print. My favorite out of the 6 I now own.
