same here :D

this guy is 25 euro
however much that is u.s.,
I dunno

[geanine.aurora]

I think 25 euros is about 32 US. Are you sure it's euros not pounds? If it's pounds it's roughly double.

[geanine.aurora]

I think the quoted prices from the national gallery are is pounds, so that would be quite a bit!

You can find currency conversions online pretty easily. But yeah, Bosch is the shit. Why hasn't anyone done this before? It's such a fucking great idea. I don't plan on buying any but it's cool to go through and look at 'em... look pretty detailed.

It'd be kinda cool to get that labotomy scene from "Extracting the Stone of Madness" or whatever it's called too:

yeah
it's pounds.
These guys
are around 40 bucks each :(

If you're the creative type you might be able to do something similar with FIMO clay. It's kindof fun to work with (like the old days of playdough) and if you like what you make you can heat it up in your own oven and it will stay that way forever.

I just found
this seller on ebay

other artist figures.
Still too pricey for me.

i've never seen nor heard of bosch before. they are kind of trippy looking what's the attraction for you guys?

not that i don't think they are cool, just wonderin what got you into this guys's stuff

[Narkotikon]

These are pretty cool Kyuss. They remind me of some kind of twisted torture in one of Dante's circles of Hell. My favorite on the site is the guy breaking out of the egg. Wouldn't it be great if they had some tortured soul breaking out of a poppy pod. Like a junkie breaking out of the pod, all dark and tortured.

I've been a fan
for awhile.
I remember
the Elton John album cover
"Capt.Fantastic"
from the early 70's
where the artist copied
Bosch's look and style.
I was a probably 7

When I was looking through these a second time I thought, "what's next? they should do Dali." Went looking around the site and it look's like they already have, not as much stuff though and the descriptions are in a forigen language.

I was about 15 and I found this large coffee table type book of his art. I had to have it! Since then I have been fascinated. He explores wild sexual ideas particularly for his time. We see black with white. we see the temptations of life. Not all of his work is so LSD-like. Some is somber and more typical of the period.

The Garden of Earthly Delights is phenominal. We are all going to be swallowed and defecated by Satan himself.

Actually, though, if you think about Lucifer as being frozen in the bottom circle of Hell as according to Dante, maybe he's really REALLY constipated. Don't things slow down when they get colder? Or, maybe, he's just totally nodding. If that's the case, I'd be the first in line. You gotta figure that Lucifer's got the bomb ass shit.

Yeah but he would be the type that would slip you high dose PCP or Naltrexone one day out of the blue just for shit's and giggles too though.

Yeah, I saw these back in April 2003 in France at a gift shop in Paris. I though they were really cool, being a huge fan of Bosch (and Dali and Escher). I would have bought some but they're really expensive.

I got to see some Bosch paintings in real life at the Louvre while I was in France. Really, really amazing. The paintings are so detailed. It was pretty neat getting to see them in person finally. I'd love to get to view The Garden Of Earthly Delights in person someday.

1 pound to $1.81-2 depending on how bad you get ripped.
I used to have a full sized,beautifully framed copy of the garden of earthly delights,till I swapped it for dope.
I've visited Hetrogenbosch,where the master used to live and seen his paintings in the Prado and personally I think ship of fools is a better paining.
Bosch belived our lives were spent passing through gods stomach and when we die we're crapped out into the next world.weird huh?

Wow, I was gonna post this same thing till I saw your post Nick. I have a friend that lives in DenBosch (as it is also sometimes called) and I have walked the town square and saw his house. Got some great pics---it's a unique little town with a lot of cool architecture and a fantastic central fountain.

I have a great framed repro of "The Garden of Earthly Delights" that I got in Amsterdam at the Rembrandt Museum. Very cool about the action figures....
