Mr Mylar Posted June 1, 2013 Author Share Posted June 1, 2013 I know there are probably numerous threads for this so let me beforehand say - But some of these are SO awesome and obviously took a long time to complete... Can you guys offer any advice? How do you get a wonderful piece like this? Just go to a con? Commission an artist? Any advice you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated! In the meantime I'll continue to marvel at your amazing books! Hello! There are different ways to get a sketch cover collection going imo 1. You can participate in the many sketch opportunities offered here on the boards 2. Conventions are great as well, but I suggest you contact said artist first to set things up 3. EBay is another option as well Hope this helps. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a sketch opportunity presents itself, could you guys keep me in mind. I tend to miss these things somehow! Definitely searched on ebay before, but I'd love to get a personal/customized one with some creative thoughts of mine added in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-raider1 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Amazing sketches Thank you, Alex You've been holding out. Naa I was probably just being lazy and forgot to post them. By the way your Mike Rooth Superman is Killer and his cover work shown on his website gallery is super amazing as well. Maybe some one on the boards can set up a mail away opportunity with him. I know I would be down for one or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spideyfan88 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 The top five changes a lot not because I get more stuff but because of the mood of things at the time but here it goes 1) John Romita Sr and Sal Buscema 2) Joe Quesada 3) John Cassaday 4) David Finch and fifth would be between Chris Bachalo and Gabrielle Dell'otto Yurgo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nino_013 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Since theres not much activity with sketch covers as of late, thought id bump this thread up. It was great looking thru (the ones that are still here) and coming across quite a few sketches I hadn't seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
