Pete Marino Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Fiona took commissions at NYCC last year. it was a short list that was long sold out before the event I just couldn't pull the trigger, she was charging $300 per sketch at NYCC. I love Saga and all, but there's a good amount of nice published art that, that amount could go towards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branget you are a mystery.... what could you possibly not have that you are nervous about? Whips out a YTLM cover earlier and I am supposed to believe you are sh***ing your pants over something else? Nah... I'm only kidding. Clearly you still harbour a strong love for the hobby (10% kidding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N/A Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Something about one of a kind items makes me nervous until I have them in hand. Looks like I have to stay nervous until May. I need to post my other YTLM cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuff Ghost Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Don't be embarrassed about spending, I rather see all these awesome pages and commissions instead of a picture of a pile of money. Proceed with the pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garf Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Still enjoying the odd re-read and frequent flip to some of the memorable moments. Have loved a lot of the vertigo stuff in general over the years tbh. Never really caught the OA bug early enough whilst the books I used to read were selling, before the market really picked up or before my priorities in life changed a lot... looking at the flip side it's also a bullet to dodge Happy with my solitary page. Was going to add a couple and then noticed Splash had sold the lot in one go. Definitely seems very scarce now on the primary market, even secondary has slowed but not cooled... . Makes me wonder if other people are now also looking back at BKV's work or revisiting it after Saga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N/A Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I would like to know who bought everything from splash page. Glad I bought a few at NYCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuff Ghost Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Here are a few other ones Darrow was a ton of fun to talk to so I had to buy something. I found his prices to actually be really reasonable. Tyler and Kurtis are always great to chat with. Scott Kowalchuk! Really great guy. He has a couple projects at ONI coming out this year I believe. Probably be buried with this I love James Stokoe's stuff, especially since he does hand lettering like the old days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy0076-migration Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I sent payment to a popular artist 2 weeks ago, have recieved emails from him. To me the $ amount was signifigant, $250. It doesn't seem like getting the page in the mail is high on his priority list. My question is how long on average does it take you guys to recieve stuff once you pay? How long have you waited for a piece? Not a comission but a finished page. I'm sure i will get it but i figured it wouldn't take that long to package and pop in the mail. Thanks for any answers guys.

N/A Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Finished pages I get really quick. Any artist I've purchased from wants to ship before they forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy0076-migration Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I don't wanna bug the guy cause i know he's busy but at the same time, it's a good bit of money to me. I haven't been rude at all and wouldn't be but what should i do? All it takes is packing and mailing! You would think he would wanna ship asap to a fan who has paid and wants his art.

CBT Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 just message him, and say that you are excited to get it, and wondering what sort of time frame you should expect to have it in. No artist will mind someone excited about their work, and looking to enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
