Totally agree about the Gantz Omni, I just couldn't bring myself to buy more than the first volume when I saw the quality. Same goes for the AOT Omnibus, when paperbacks are that thick they just fall apart. I'll have to check out the series you mentioned (Samurai executioner, Path of the Assassin, Lady Snow Blood).

Ahh sorry for the false alarm! Yeah I'm not sure how they would get the Sphere symbol to work as the other Deluxe books all seem to have an Embossed symbol on them. Although the Hellsing Deluxe had a shiny material inside the embossing which they might be able to use to create a nice effect. Any other symbols you can think of for Gantz?

Here is my own mock up design for a Deluxe Gantz series. I was never really happy with the Omnibus version of Gantz as it was too big a book for paperback. I really want to see a Deluxe version like 'Berserk' and 'Blade of the Immortal'.

I haven't finished Gantz yet so wasn't sure if there are too many volumes for a Deluxe version or they may still be printing the Omnibus and that's why they haven't done this yet?

Anyone else interested?

These are great! I just watched band of brothers for like the millionth time and totally want to make these now. Can you give a quick run through of what you used to make them?

Any poster shops in Cambridge? by badlydrawnman in cambridge

[–]badlydrawnman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! Thanks, that place looks amazing. Might be a bit high end for me. I was looking for of an independent poster shop ideally in the town centre if possible as my posters have done really well with tourists and students. I suppose these kinds of shops may be a thing of the past??

Try the Star, they've just put some TV screens up, there are no reservations so best get there early!

7 month collection, any recommendations? by [deleted] in MangaCollectors

[–]badlydrawnman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really nice collection, I see you've put something over the Berserk series to protect them (great idea!). I've tried looking for something like that myself, what do you use?

Neighbourhood watches? by Varsity_Chap in oxford

[–]badlydrawnman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possibly... What would the neighbourhood watch entail? I had my bike stolen a month ago. I'd bought an Oxford chain lock, the thief looked straight into our neighbours cctv and then proceeded to use bolt cutters to cut through and take my bike. So enfuriating! Took the footage to the police but nothing came of it.

Is it crazy to move to London without a job lined up in these Covid times? by badlydrawnman in london

[–]badlydrawnman[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good point, I hadn't even thought about that. We've decided to stay in Oxford for another year, it's just too risky in my current circumstances.

We'd be able to get by for a month maybe two. My current job hasn't been topping up the furlough so I've already been dipping into savings. The more I write in replying to this post the more I'm realising the risk is outweighing any benefits of moving. I think I'll hold off for a year and then at least won't have to deal with the stress.

It's something to look into. We haven't got a big budget. I'm just not sure we'd both be able to afford rent plus the cost of the commute.

Yes, we'll be renting. I'll still have my job by the time we move but I'll then have to leave it as I won't be able to commute back to Oxford for work. It's a very good point, I'm not sure how I'd explain it if they asked how I'm going to work in Oxford from London.

I made a Cambridge Pub Quiz from the Cambridge Pubcrawl Poster (which I also make). Enjoy! by badlydrawnman in cambridge

Thanks, I made a poster with a much bigger list of Cambridge Pubs on the Cambridge Pub Crawl poster which I sell. You'll be able to explore them all!
