Your Top 5 sketch covers in your collection?
7 7

231 posts in this topic

I know there are probably numerous threads for this so let me beforehand say - :sorry:

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? (shrug)

 

Any advice you guys could offer would be greatly appreciated! :foryou:

 

In the meantime I'll continue to marvel at your amazing books! (worship)

 

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! :)

I'll second what Mike said. Although we're a digital community, we're always happy to help.

Sweet! Thanks guys!!! If a sketch opportunity presents itself, could you guys keep me in mind. I tend to miss these things somehow! doh!

Definitely searched on ebay before, but I'd love to get a personal/customized one with some creative thoughts of mine added in. :applause:

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.

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

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.

 

You could've bumped it with your top 5 :baiting:

lol I thought the same thing
