It’s probably posted somewhere here, too haha. Yep! Much of it can be found right here on the site! There are two issues of that magazine, one from 1986 and another from 87 in the downloads section. I often find these magazines on google books as well. Edited March 22, 2018 by summer84 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadrian Posted March 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 I forgot about the paintings in Bonzo Barry’s office. These are surely Rick Garcias, as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadrian Posted December 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 As the renovations on my new home are about finished, I thought about having a custom mural of this image printed for one of the walls of my music room. @RedDragon86 @Crockettt @AndrewRemington do any of you have a way of making a source image from the Blu Ray discs with your wizardry? It may even have to be pieces together from multiple screen caps, but it would be a great contribution to fans, and certainly a big deal to me! I reached out to Rick Garcia, and he said he had no photos of the mural. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don’t have the software/skills to make it myself. I’m wondering if someone could use various shots to maybe piece together a single rendered image. I’m sure it would be an undertaking. It would even be okay with me if the finished product was a bit digital looking (like the Miami Vice Art guy from Instagram whose work you share here often—I reached out to him on IG and he only has versions with the entire shot, cars and all). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Dadrian, I think you’re going to have a hard time scaling up any image from DVD, even Blu Ray, to the size of a wall in a room. It will be far too pixilated, though perhaps there is a way to smooth that out. However, I can tell you that the mural in the episode looks to me less like Rick Garcia’s surrealist artworks that you found, than it does Patrick Nagel’s pop art work... or maybe it’s more of a combination of the two. Sadly he died much to young in the 80’s. Here’s a link: https://www.muddycolors.com/2020/11/artist-of-the-month-patrick-nagel/ Good luck!
