well this isn't the best pic nor the best format but you can see Korlus here

http://crjans2.shutt....com/pictures/9

and to say Korlus as signed in normal pen isn't really fair... it's not signed at all the name is printed not signed the only upside is the numbers are extremely easy to read


It looks pretty good but definitely not as good as the wards. To me the online pictures made korlus look better but after seeing the pictures I'm swaying towards the wards now. A bit dissapointed about the 'signature' but I guess I'll have to live with that. Thanks for posting!

I have had 5 damaged Bioware lithos and I just received 3 damaged Visceral lithos. Some of us have no luck at all.

Perhaps its your mailing courier? with all my packages my mail courier delivers at the same time of day and i've hadn't an issue with damaged packages. and its going all the way to Australia! where do you live?

as for the pen v sharpie. i think it looks better in pen (from the photo). but i guess it would last longer in sharpie?

Just as an FYI to those that have not yet obtained their orders. The packaging method has not yet been changed over to a fully sealed package like Jedi had talked about previously they are still coming between 2 sheets of foam between folded cardboard and taped shut in a couple places on the open edges

Looking forward to an outside Normandy...I can't think of anything better to go next to my Collectors Litho ^_^



Thank you Jedi for keeping us updated on that. Is it going to be a preorder sale like the Wards and Korlus?

I told myself that I was not going to purchase one of the new lithographs, but when I saw the vibrant shot of The Wards a couple pages back, I had to bite. Those colors just jump off of the page!



Can't wait for the Normandy litho in a couple weeks!

Im in love with a scene in Katsumi's mission. The part where she is at the mansion and you go out on the deck and there is a city out there. Its just a beautiful scene. I would pay for either just a lithograph or a fancy video loop on a 20 inch LCD lol. Heck there are alot of various scenes if I could just buy the scenes having a LCD screen where I could change the scene when I wanted it would be pretty cool. Even with sound or sound off options.

Well the thing is so far they haven't really created new art for the lithographs. They've all come from the Mass Effect Artbook so far although if the Normandy one is actually an outside shot then it might be a new one. Chances are pretty slim that they would make a new one. They're probably working on new dragon age lithos anyways.

What is the cheapest way to frame these? I paid over 100 dollars to get my Minutman litho framed with the acid free materials and glass. But i really can not afford that for my Wards litho. Is it easy to do it yourself in a simple frame? Anyone have a link to the correct size frame?

any 18" x 24" frame will do, I've framed my TIM, Afterlife and Jack with frames from Michael's. I would pay more than $20 - $30 USD for good frame though

Unfortunately they don't have an online store and their site is fairly useless IMHO.  But to answer your other question they do sell pre-made frames with glass, just make sure you don't buy one that says "poster frame" they are the cheap ones that have the heavy plastic and the slide on edges.

 and with pre-made frames it's as easy as undoing the clasps in the back and removing the place holder image and putting in the litho.  just clean the glass before you put the litho in, sometimes there can be some particles from manufacturing trapped between the glass and the place holder image.

Would this work? I would just add the 17.95 acrylic, unless you recommend the acid free? Will it be easy to do myself? http://tinyurl.com/2bact4u

the option you chose should do fine, just don't forget the canvas clips, not sure if you will need them (if the frame has clips built on, then you only wasted $ .95 but if it doesn't you need to order them and wait longer.

 i think there was a discussion on a page either in this topic or in the version 1 of this topic  about the debate of UV protection, I think the outcome was something like regardless of using it or not the litho will eventually fade regardless.

Someone else here might correct me or point you to that.

As for assembling it, should be fairly simple.  lay the frame upside down clean the acrylic with windex or something similar. put it in the frame then the litho then the foam core  and then fasten it down.

Quick update on the new packaging. We will be switching over to a fully enclosed cardboard later this month. We're working out the details and I"ll update when I have an exact ETA.

Frames are always nicer but if you're looking for a cheaper alternative, getting the prints mounted (I think that's the right term in English... might be laminated) is pretty cheap and makes your print pretty much indestructible (within reason). I believe it also includes a UV protection or at least you can request it.

No Canada help since I'm in Iowa, but my order says it shipped on the 3rd and the tracking number still doesn't work. CC was charged on the 3rd as well.

Same here.  Bit, my tracking number works (UPS) its just taking really long to get from Colorado to California.  I got my Dead Space litho in like 3 days.  Dont know why there is always some sort of hiccup when they sell/ship Mass Effect litho's. 
EDIT, just received my wards.  Looks great, and I got 10/400.  I kinda wish they used a paper just a tad bit more glossy.  But I think it looks great

Just received my Wards lithograph. #9 of 400. Looks fantastic. No damages during shipping. Really pleased with it. I'll definitely be getting the Normandy litho when it comes out. img718.imageshack.us/img718/6034/me2jm.jpg

yea I noticed the ME2 lithos went from pre-order to just regular today. So I was expecting to get them sometime soon.

For some reason, when I have ordered my litho, I have never been charged, even though I had enough money on the account at the time. It is still pending...

I don't see the charge anywhere on my statements.

Yeah, the frame really makes it pop. I got lucky and found two of those frames at a local art supply store for 50% off.
