THANKS SD.

I'm glad someone understands what I was shooting for on this piece. To me, the first 15 min of Raiders is what will be forever burned in my memory of this classic film : )

Of course, I'm just taking a simple poll, and collectors have their likes and dislikes of course. If I burn the turkey, I'll probably toss the bird, but right now, I'm only in the kitchen taking a tempature :D
 
I'd love to see a print, I missed out on your return cards, and echo the sentiments that the opening of Raiders is not only the best of Indy, but up there with any scene in any movie short of the 2001 stargate sequence.

You get the first glimpse of him stepping out of the shadows after he whips that gun out of Barrancas hand, you have ****y traps, creepy crawlers, the giant boulder, the idol, a double cross, half naked natives, a great villain, and a narrow escape. It is the very definition of Indiana Jones.
 
I'd actually disagree. The first 15 minutes of Raiders is among the most iconic 15 minutes in movie history. Few movies can so well capture the main character in the first scene as Indy was in Raiders (Joker's bank robbery in the Dark Knight may be comparable).

I'd go for just the beginning.

Well I can't argue with that. :rock
 
Ultimately, the license to create such a print is over at ACME archives. I'm just testing the water to see if there are enough interested people for such a print.

Depending on the price I would DEFINITELY take one of these. This is one amazing print and I LOVE the beginning of the Raiders. Great work!
 
I would love to see other characters from the film. Maybe Marion, Swordsman, Thot, Indy fighting the German Mechanic in the lower corner of the collage, something like that.
 
I for one would certainly get a Raiders print Jerry!! Although I am one who would prefer a whole movie based print, rather than this print depicting the opening. Although I would still get this if made available :D

No offense, but I think that would ruin the design layout of this piece. Just because it's a collage, doesn't mean that it should have everything, plus the kitchen sink. Best to remain focussed.

Grreat piece, but also love the focus on the films and one per film...
 
I will probably not check this thread any longer; I think I have an idea of what the Indy collectors are thinkn'. Thanks for all your comments. On to ROTK now!

I actually didnt mean to put the other characters in this specific peice. But to create a totally different peice all together.
 
Thanks for giving us a chance to sound off Jerry. :) I hope that you make a print available for purchase. I'd like at least one piece of your work in my Indy collection.
 
Hey Jerry, hope you don't mind but I put a part of this piece in my avatar. This is by far my favorite Indy art. Good job!
