Man, has it been over 4 months since our last one already? Time flies when you’re traveling through time in a Delorean. We here at Nakatomi Print Labs print a LOT of stuff. And printing leads to mis-prints. Some misprints are just too ‘almost perfect’ to throw out. OTHERS are used as test sheets and printed over top of a whole bunch making unique one-of a kind prints. Those are the scratch/dents! ALMOST perfect, but…
There was a time not too terribly long ago when Marvel Comics would have done anything for money. This includes publishing special freebie issues peddling any good or service that coughed up the dough. Spidey sold AIM toothpaste (no, not Advance Idea Mechanics brand – nerd), the X-Men dropped in on the Texas State Fair, and the Hulk waxed on about the comfort of Soft-E Intrusion suppositories. But it was a rare event when the…
Dang, has it been 8 months already? The final entry in the 8 month long Nakatomi Invitational Season 2 is here! Nick Derington’s excellent print ‘Stranger’ is a moody little bit of sci-fi as still life. And, like all invitational releases, this print comes along with a paired t-shirt- And it glows in the dark, too! The print is 18×24 hand printed, and signed and numbered by the artist. Like the previous 7 entries, this…
Because YOU demanded it- Tim Doyle recently opened up his personal Vaults and sold out of his pre-Nakatomi prints, and ONE IN PARTICULAR evaporated instantly, and we got quite a few emails asking for a re-print. WELL- that’s the point of a gigposter, you can’t reprint it…it’s for THAT gig. But, since the art stands just fine on it’s own…no reason not to make some happy peoples out there. At half the size of the…
You MAY have noticed but we here at Nakatomi like giving you guys things. FREE things. The nice bit about owning a print shop is whatever crazy thing we want to make…it’s done faster than it probably should be…not giving us adequate time to think things through. Sigh. We try to put an exclusive mini-print or handbill in w/ each order, just recently we had the test print “Sid and Nancy Reagan” and we JUST…
A couple of weeks ago, Derek over at Drymounted.com had an open call to his readers for questions to be posed to me, with the top few questions that got the most votes would get answered. But because I love to hear my own voice, I said I’d answer them all. So, reprinted with permission, here is way more information than you wanted to know about me- 1. What advice can you give to artists…
I just saw this t-shirt exists. Lord, help us all. “Hey Timmy. Let’s head down there to the Bat-Lab and do some secret research. I’ll grab the Bat-camera.”
Flatstock was a crazy huge success for us here at Nakatomi, and one thing we got to do was bring out some pre-Nakatomi prints by our founder, Tim Doyle. People really ate up these treasures from the vault. So, we’re throwing the remaining copies of these up on Nakatomi in an effort to CLEAR OUT OUR FLATFILES! (really, they’re getting stuffed…) So, here’s a gander at what we’re talking about- all available right now in…
Tim Doyle’s follow up to the now sold out ‘White Dragon’, “If Only You Could See What I’ve Seen” went up for pre-sell last week, and is now printed and shipping out to those people on the mailing list who bought one! The next shot to pick one up is at the Nakatomi Inc / Clint’s Prints booth at Flatstock Austin this weekend (March 18-20)! Flatstock is held at the Austin Convention center, so come…
