OUTTA The Blue!!!

I just opened an unexpected package delivered to the office and found a LG Unique Graphic "In Remembrance" New York Skyline Sebenza.

I still haven't found out who exactly sent it, but WOW!

I hope they send me one too.

It turns out that my Mother bought it for me. I'll post pics when I get home and have access to a camera.

Bummer! Looking at the seb more closely, I have noticed that it has several defects in the graphic (unfinished tool marks). I'll probably have to return it. It's a shame though, 'cause I really like the design.


My camera is on the fritz, so here is a scan. Doesn't it look like the buildings were started, but unfinished?

My guess is that it is probably just variation due to it being done by hand on a mill. You can send the image to CRK to be sure.

On the CRK site it shows the world trade center being unfinished or at least not colored the same as the rest of the skyline http://chrisreeve.com/unique.htm

I get that the Twin Towers were supposed to appear as faint images, but I am referring to the others (which I have drawn red lines to highlight). I know that all unique graphics differ slightly from each other, but I have seen none that look like obvious mistakes. It looks like cuts were started with an endmill bit or something, but not finished.

I sent a photo to CRK on Wednesday and hopefully they will clarify for me.

OK, I have this clarified now. Heather at CRK emailed me ensuring that there was no defect, in fact, each NY Skyline is hand milled and no two will look alike. The marks that I suspected as defects are actually there intentionally to provide contrast and are meant to mimic the NY skyline. (It is not a painting or photo). I stand corrected.

She offered to exchange it for another unique graphic if I so desire. :thumbup: CRK Rules!

Can I give my Mom's address to your mom so they could have a chat? You have a great Mom. (so do I)

 

[edamhcneb]

You have a great Mom. (so do I)

Yeah, my Mom is great! She wanted to get me something nice for my 10th wedding anniversary since I had to get the wife another Diamond. Mom felt bad for me because I usually get a tie or something.

Is your mom open for adoption. And I don't eat much either.
