Hi TL! It's been a long time, so I hope you all have been well.

sooo the TL;DR -- I accidentally work in esports again (ah!)
Specifically I work as a sponsor of IEM.

which means i just do silly stuff like this all the time
[image loading]


[image loading]

(a yearly tradition at IEM Dallas. TY FOR THE PHOTO SHIRO <3)

and watch esports
[image loading]

But I also get to do cool stuff like commission artists to do fantastic pieces of artwork commemorating 10 moments in IEM history:

[image loading]


(unfortunately the posters got a little bent ): < but we'll be showing them off at other IEMs)

[image loading]


[image loading]

Each art piece has like a little title card with the name of the moment, a short description, and the artist's bio.

Both of these pieces were done by Nicolas Chaussois !


and I also get to eat a lot while I travel (though I'm always working so I get to eat like 1.5meals a day or I forget to eat and just snack on whatever I can find).... BUT ON THE RARE OCCASION THAT I DO GET TO EAT:

[image loading]

Fresh sashimi at the Sydney Fish Market

I forgot what this was! But this was in Katowice

[image loading]

Mett in cologne!


Anyway, if you happen to go to an IEM come say hi! \o/

ok see ya the next time I post which is probably in like 5 years. who knows.

I remember the face, but no idea who you are. You did interviews early on for SC2?

Very cool art. Get the artists to paint/wet both sides of the board next time, it should help prevent warping.
The boards can probably still be straightened by damping the backs with warm water and let it dry naturally, If you have spare board lying around you can paint one side and test with post-dampening after it's dry.

Congratz on the job and thanks for giving our old-timer one!

Nah, I wasnt super involved in the SC2 scene professionally. I just went to events as a fan 😅 (mostly BlizzCon)

Thanks for the tip!!
We will be making new prints for IEM Cologne with that art, so I will pass along that info.
