Description
 
The inspiration for this print was an omake idea evolving around the idea of Ping and GladOS from Portal having a Girls Night Out.  The more i thought about the idea, the more disturbing the potential, which of course meant that i had to sketch a little to expand upon the idea.  Fun to detail and some rather fun coloring, i'm not sure of Ping has looked quite this disturbingly cute yet.  

I’ve done a lot of research over the past few years into higher end printing, culminating with the purchase of a HP PhotoSmart B9180 printer earlier this year.  I chose the B9180 because I really liked the way it handled subtle shades of grey and fine pencil work (it actually uses three different shades of black ink).  The HP Vivera inks are pigment inks rather than the dye-based inks found in most inkjet printers.  When printed on quality, archival fine art paper these inks are archival and tests indicate that they will resist fading up to 200 years.

I also did a lot of research and testing of the wide variety of fine art papers available for printers like this.  I swear I was actually starting to get eye strain using a 10x loupe to examine the details. :)  In the end, I chose the Moab Entrada Rag Bright 190 Premium Archival Fine Art Paper as the best paper for printing my work.  It has a bright surface with a low texture that I prints very find details and works really well for my art style.

Fine Art Prints are printed from the original high resolution files without resampling of the original image.   They are signed by me (in pencil) with the current date.  Each print is then slipped into an archival plastic sleeve with an acid free backer board and shipped seperately in a large heavy stay-flat mailer.
