So I ordered these for the house. The jumbo ones (24x38) to match the Banksy "Heavy Weaponry" canvas in my office.

Not sure how you all feel about kickstarter projects, but I'm ordering the jumbo 3 pack the Cobra, GT500, and 911. Guess I'll see how it goes over when she finds out ![](/media/img/icons/smilies/laugh-18.png)
Not mine, but they showed up today and thought they were something you all would appreciate.

Holy E36 M3, is that your couch?
Wow. Dunno if I want to lie on it... or eat it.
In reply to Lesley:
Not mine sadly I had to poach the kickstarter image... luckily my wife agrees with my taste so our furniture tends to be on the modern side. When they show up in September (bleh) I'll take some pictures.
Those are pretty freakin' sweet.
Oh snap. Time to ask SWMBO if I can spend some mad cash.
Launched today and is already $3000 past the $5000 goal. Whaaaaa? I also want to pledge $159 and get all the prints, super cool
34 bucks for all 8 in 6x9? sign me up.
FYI they are 80lbs card stock not stretched canvas the image is a bit misleading, as well as the size. I assume you'll have to do your own mounting. Even still I thought it was a good price.
All these replies and nobody made a Garfunkle joke? Y'all slipping! ![](/media/img/icons/smilies/laugh-18.png)
Yup. Done. Going for the same 3.
I really like kickstarter and have bought a few things in my time. I'll have to run this one by the wife when she gets back, but I dig these. Thanks for the heads up.
I'd want to know who this guy Art is and why your wife wants him hanging around your house, that's for sure!

The prints are great, but watch the video with the sound off if you're annoyed by valley-girl speak.
you know, i love cars as much as any of you guys, probably moreso than most.
but i've got a Dali above my fireplace. i stuck the car art in the corner by my record player

Also, not to be too big of a snob, especially considering the price point, but there's no mention of the original medium...which I'm guessing is not paint, but some chick grabbing someone else's (potentially copyrighted) photo, spending 10 minutes in photoshop making it black and white and bumping the contrast way up, then emailing the file to the printer.
...not that there's anything wrong with that. Hell, at $13k in committed sales, I wish I would've thought of it myself! Why the berkeley am I spending money on painting lessons!?!?!? ![](/media/img/icons/smilies/crazy-18.png)
PPS: Chick should offer them mounted on 1/2" thick board, ready to hang, as shown in at least one of the photos; or gallery-wrapped on canvas. I'll go away now.

Keep going I'm actually reading with great interest trying to figure out how to mount them
The half inch board sounds like the winner because I like the edge-less look like it's a canvas.
Another reason why I love this board, though I mostly just lurk here.

You don't need to pay for painting lessons

In reply to Wally:
Clicked hoping for Bob Ross, was correct.
Over $30,000
She seems to have found herself a nice little market

Hmmm... maybe I should try it myself. I could use $30k right now.
