Limited-Edition | GZA Liquid Swords "Battle Scene" Screen Prints
For a limited time Get On Down is excited to offer the limited edition Liquid Swords "Battle Scene" Wood Block prints. This 18" x 18" wood block is based on the album's "Battle Scene" visuals which were included in Liquid Swords' original album packaging. These wood blocks are screen printed by AntiDesigns, with a deluxe resin finish by Josh Falk.
This resin finish adds a nice texture to the wood block, giving it a glass-like look. As shown in the video, the process to make these is quite involved. First, with Jay (AntiDesigns) making the screen and hand printing each block while Josh pours the clear, colorless liquid resin over the wood, adding flame to cast it permanently. These are hand-numbered and limited to 100.
