  1. Posted over on CAF, but very interesting piece! The close crop and lighting, not to mention what is able to be made out of the expression in the shape of the eye, yields a great bit of unsolvable mystery to the piece. In turns fascinating (skillset) and terrifying (impact of the image). I can only imagine what it looks like hanging on a wall, in a frame. Must be an effect almost like a window, with a giant outside peering in your home?
  2. Dig those built-ins, Ducky! Always happy to see art walls too.
  3. It would have been nice if World War Z had been in any conceivable way, related to the book World War Z rather than the by-the-numbers action movie they made it into. It was fine for a formulaic Hollywood film that brought nothing new and has no bearing on the supposed "source material" other than it contains Zombies. But the only way they ever could have made that book into other media would have been as a long form TV series. Afraid Walking Dead beat them to the punch on that score (though the WWZ book is so much better, and has such a massive scope WD has never been able to touch). Anyhow... carry on. -e.
  4. Seems to me this is a clear cut a case of valuation as "nostalgia trophy". The intrinsic value of this piece as art is clearly on the low side , based on minimal original involvement. Whether someone pays $10K or $50K. ....or you could get the Capullo Batman cover, right? As far as stats in this context counting as artistic collage.... that's got to be a whole other thread right there.
  5. I could have done without the Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg haricut, but other than that... we cool.
  6. Look at those giant door mouldings and high ceilings. I love old houses. Should make for a great space. Looking forward to the updates.
  7. Hahahaha. Man, I remember calling Wildstorm and buying Preacher pages by the stack. Compared to a lot of other comparable art from other series selling at the time for $100-200 a page, the Preacher stuff almost felt like stealing. Hell, I think I paid Mark Wheatley more for some of his color pages than I paid for an early Jessie half splash from WS. Definitely more than I paid for the 3 consecutive pages of Cass confessing at the bar. Can't remember the issue number, but I swear those were like $30 or $40 per. Anyway....
  8. I'm setting mine next to yours and putting it in overdrive. Something tells me we're all gonna need it. Pulling up my chair...
  9. I will always remember the first time I saw the cover of Treasury #1.
  10. I felt like the Sentinel battles with Blink in the DOFP movie was just a stand in for Nightcrawler BAMFing. That was the best bit, the creative teamwork in those segments.
  11. The Duatin piece is great. That Elric is pretty awesome as well. Nice stuff, guys.
  12. Welcome to doom, self imposed poverty, disappointment, frustration, anger, and possibly some really really excellent art that would never be created if not for you. Be sure to share the results.
  13. Nice grouping. Not normally a fan of "salon" art hanging but this works well together. Nicely done. And sure, we will ignore the unknown white powder substance piled under it too.
  14. Saw this article about the Swamp Thing film rights, and how it impacts characters created from the comics, including the Constantine show & potential film appearances. DC regularly gets held up as the more creator friendly Company, and Marvel usually held up as the company that bent over its artists, but here's one of those more modern cases, where I think DC hosed itself as well as any future creatives. Yeesh. http://ohdannyboy.blogspot.com.au/2014/12/how-dc-comics-sold-alan-moore-in-1980.html
  15. Looks like a great lived in space rather than an exhibit. Seems a good comfy place to read some great books to me! Really dig the drafting/drawing table. Thanks for sharing.
