See, I'll have to defer to you on this one. I only bought Aria and Reaper Attack, so that's what I'm judging by. I didn't care for the other ones mentioned. It's like buying some of the Star Wars Acme prints, they just run dark.

If they had gone for the lightness (I'm not sure if it's increased gamma on the image or what) that Reaper Attack had, those lithos would've been fine. But as they stand now, they're too dark to see. I'll post some images to give you an idea.sabiansix wrote...

I'll note the further away you get from them, the darker they look. Pretty abysmal.

Wow... So my buddy just got his Liara Screen Print yesterday and I was able to see it before leaving to work. I am very happy I didn't get it.
The colors seem flat and even with the "special" metallic inks I'm still not impressed. I have no idea how he's going to frame it since the signature is so far down on the corner; its going to need ether one of the thinnest matting jobs i have ever seen or it will have to be a custom; aka expensive; frame.
Once again hope people like their "Embrace Eterninty" Screen Prints. I just cant beleive it doesn't look anything like Liara and the "glitter" ink isn't very impressive to me.
Still waiting for my Mako.

Got my Mako yesterday, it is my favorite for ME3 by far. However, there is the tiniest crease in the corner most likely from packing, don't know if its worth getting another one or not.

Just got the Mako litho and I'm greatly impressed with them packing it. They actually rolled it properly in a thick tube with the kraft paper surrounding the entire image and kept the corners protected.
Maybe it was a fluke but they might have started to pay more attention to how to pack these, for the US warehouses at least. I hope that's the case. It's a great print and looks like it's in mint condition.

I take back everything positive and the high hopes for the Liara litho. I just got it, and the "metallic inks" looks NOTHING like any other metallic inks that I've seen or have on other prints. It really looks like bad fan art. I'm guessing a friend of somebody there got this approved, because I can't see ANYBODY sitting around looking at this and saying, "This is great! We should sell this and put our name on it!"

So you don't like it?
Sorry, I just couldn't help myself. I know it doesn't look very good.

Yeah, I tried to give this one the benefit of the doubt, but it's the first piece that actually looked worse in person.

Just got my mako litho today and I'm really glad I got this one. It's definitely one of the best that they've come out with for the Mass Effect 3 ones.

Anyone care to post photos of their Liara prints. It'll be interesting to see whether its much different to what was advertised. I know what the general consensus seems to be so far..

I got my Mako Litho and Liara screenprint today. I think both was great, the Mako is always the Mako, we love to hate it! The Liara one is also cool but it's a shame her face isn't so good, I don't know what it's with her face, many fanarts and Bioware themself gets it wrong.

I ordered the Liara one today, I've been waiting for one for ages. Not overly thrilled with the artwork but it's OK.
I'll have to pass on the Mako for now, might get it at a later point if there are any left.

Why are people buying artwork they don't actually like?

My honest guess; it's Liara and that's the reason. So many people; like myself; have been waiting for so long for anything Liara and most are willing to buy anything with their favorite character.
To be honest if I didn't have the SDCC Liara I might have bought it. Even though I don't like it.
If I'm right repost so we don't get anymore "glitter inked" screen prints.
My favorite thing about this is nobody really knows why they are buying it, and if you look at the Bioware store it keeps saying that its sold out and then a few hours later the have more for sale, so they don't know how many they have left.

I'm not sure why everyone is assuming that the asari in the "Embrace Eternity" screenprint is Liara. Nowhere on its BioWare Store page does it say "Liara", nor does it say "Liara" on the screenprint itself. Sure, her outfit looks like Liara's, but do you really think that she's the only person with that outfit in the entire galaxy? Probably not. Clearly, the screenprint depicts a random asari, not Liara.

Look at Ms. Domino's post. She clearly refers to the Asari in the picture as "Liara."
I think this is evidence of just how bad the art is in that print.

It's clearly supposed to be Liara, but it should have just been a random Asari print.

I got my Mako and Liara yesterday, I live in Australia so it takes a while (from the US store). I was happy with how they were packed, usually they just come with wadded up paper in either end of a tube, and up until now I've been lucky not to have any serious damage. Though there was a slight crease in my Dead Reaper. The ones I got yesterday came wrapped in individual sheets of plastic which overlapped the edges of the prints by about two inches on each end, which seemed to me to be a better way to go about it than the wadded paper and no protection I usually get.
As far as how they look, the Liara one wasn't as sparkly as I imagined, but I still kind of like it. It reminds me of those old Japanese prints, where the people are kind of distorted. I wouldn't hang it with my lithos because the style doesn't really gel, but I think it would look good with less technical more impressionist type art.
