I'm late. I said I'd have 'em like two weeks ago. I've been talking about this for ages. I got sick on Saturday. I got an extension for my differential equations homework. I spent all of today (Wednesday) finishing this so that it'd be all done before going home for Thanksgiving. The pics kinda suck even though I used my roommate's Canon EOS Rebel XT cause the lighting just is meh. But you'll get the point regardless. All the money and hours and sweat and blood (literally) and visions were for this.
PMs back and forth with our resident framing-pro Deli. Calling like 50 places for price quotes on all sorts of things. Finally finding a good deal. Finding out the backing comes up flush with the frame. Engineering the perfect solution with screws and bits of aluminum with countersunk holes, given these polystyrene (foam) frames. That's 72 holes drilled and countersunk by hand, 70 hacksaw cuts by hand, my friends. Figuring out a systematic method for cutting the foam board nicely enough to use it as matting and mass producing six sets. Getting cut by that damn glass. Learning how to hang the damn things. Figuring out how to hold the damn things down when they want to curl up like hell. It's all past me now.
This, my friends, is 100% certified acid-free, UV-protected, preserved awesomeness. I even figured out a way to do it without having to mount the posters on the backing.
Behold, my Glory.
PS screw Johnny Depp, that's my roommate's low-res poster. So low-res, with the AT06 close up one, you can freaking see her skin texture. That is MAD. When I sit in that chair and look up, the room is so big. It's the same feeling as when you look up at the sky and it fills your entire field of view...Oh I get to sleep with Ayu smiling down on me
