    When they get here please post some pictures. I was thinking about going to this show and I would like to see what got done. Working with Tristan and Michael would have been an added bonus. Hope to see them in Dallas.

    Well... thanks to the post office (long story) it only took 5+ weeks for the first batch to finally arrived.  But arrived they did - safe and sound at least.

    Here is a picture of one of the books that was done (I will post more later this week).  This one was signed by Michael Biehn and he added the quote "Stay Frosty."

    Okay, not sure if this is what you mean but around 1990 I was at a convention getting comics signed (I used to get lots of comics signed back in the day) and there was a short line and when I looked to see why I saw that Paul Ryan was doing free sketches. "Artists at cons draw?!?!?" I had never seen or heard of such a thing. I stood in line and took out a backing board and asked for Reed Richards. The stretching arm goes around the back of the backing board and comes out the other side! I am pretty sure that was my first piece of art and it was definitely my first con sketch.

    Best back board ever!?!

    Not the first commission I had done, but it was my first sketch cover.
    Emi only had some small paper at Louisville Supercon 2018 - I think like 5"x7"? I just had her do it on the back of a Batman comic.

    This was the second in collection of Studio Ghibli themed sketches for my son's room: San from Princess Mononoke.

    I am not familiar with Emi Lenox (sorry) - but her art is beautiful!  Thanks for sharing!

  4. Hello everyone!  Though I am not new to collecting - I am still new to getting commission pieces for my collection.  I have found them to be very addicting!  I got my very first one last year - and I am now up to six.  Which made me wonder... what was everyone else's very first commission piece?  And if you are comfortable sharing - why?

    My very first commission piece was this Princess Leia sketch by Siya Oum done at Denver Comic Con 2018.  As for the why... just look at it - Siya killed it!?!

    I don't see it in comic events, try calling CGC maybe, especially if it gets too close and you don't have an answer. I remember for a con in Dallas back in July, that CGC said they weren't going to be there, but a facilitator came on the boards and said that he'd go. I didn't attend the con, so I don't know who all showed. Don't give up :) 

    Thanks!  I believe CGC will be at 3 other different Cons that same weekend so they definitely won't be coming to Colorado Springs.  Fingers crossed that an authorized witness will be there.  Thanks again!
