Super as in "These are super big, bigger than the normal large format" or "These are super prints! They look awesome"?

I hope it isnt too GIANT, framing will be more than the print if they are larger than Two Sides of Capitalism.

I think we've been given enough information between this thread and the obeygiant.com blog to figure out exactly where these prints will be heading.

To be sure ... Though at that size I'm not sure those giant pieces would be my first pick if given the opportunity (next week).

I was actually thinking that these might not be for V1. The pic showing the jumbo prints is of a Brooklyn studio and Shep makes note of what he was doing in NYC in the first sentence of this post:

The paint technique is new and is being perfected. The San Diego Burmese piece was the first. The main factor is the amount of time that the mural will run. Paint will obviously last longer and as long as the property owner agrees to let the piece run, it works out better for everyone!
lol, nice head gear, if you guys had jumpsuits on you'd totally be intergalactic planetary, planetary intergalactic.

The peace dove was my favorite from the last MK show.

Hey O, are there going to be any additional Lichtenstein-flavored pieces to match up with Imperial Glory and POW(er)?
