    I was illustrating this manuscript yesterday, you know the kinda thing; Religious iconography, top dollar vellum, awesome ink work, heraldic creatures etc and i find out from one of the other scribes that there's this new upstart son-of-a-bitch on the scene called Johannes Gutenberg claiming he can make multiple copies of manuscripts in an instant. This is the end of design and i'm fucked.

    • I do like the religious flash we've seen recently, something named Cathedral?vaxorcist
    • Clever but the difference is that Gutenberg's press was a creative improvement, not limiting detriment.CyBrainX
    • That's debatable. The immediate colour/quality limits of the press vs hand crafted illumination? there's no competition. The press is/was mass media. Have you ever seen the book of Kells?Morning_star
