Popular Post worldsbestcomics Posted January 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) All right I am going to join Jason and return from my posting hiatus. I missed you guys. And what better way to return that with new Clayton Crain masterpieces? They are all acrylic paints on blank covers. The Walking Dead cover is me and my family :-) Edited January 30, 2018 by worldsbestcomics deleted duplicate scans Nino_013, seanfingh, Sooners151 and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one in particular. The fun is seeing the artists vision of the character. I simply tell them the character and let them do their thing. I have quite a few of wolverine from various artists. All this Clayton Crain talk makes me think I would love to see his take on Wolverine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this Clayton Crain talk makes me think I would love to see his take on Wolverine. Crain was the artist on X-Force for an epic run. He had an original take on Wolverine and you can see a number of images on Google. His comics are all done digitally but when Crain does sketch covers, he prefers to use acrylic paints so there is a difference between his painted Wolverines and his published Wolverines. Wolverine is my favorite character and I have been fortunate to get a number of different Wolverines from Crain. I'll post a few for you. This one is Crain's official contribution to the Weapon X HERO project. rogue14, rrrxr6, Keys_Collector and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this Clayton Crain talk makes me think I would love to see his take on Wolverine. This is one of my favorite Crains. It is a recreation of a cover he did for a Wolverine/Punisher miniseries. He used fluorescent paint for the cigar tip so it actually glows in the dark. Keys_Collector and Nino_013 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this Clayton Crain talk makes me think I would love to see his take on Wolverine. Here is an example of his X-Force style Wolverine. One unique take on Wolverine that Crain introduced has to do with Wolverine's claws. Most artists draw the claws very strictly parallel to each other. Crain thought it would be interesting to have his claws behave more like Edward Scissorhands. Keys_Collector, Nino_013 and snownado 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am familiar with his work as I have several CGC SS copies of his work on wolverine titles but meant to say his take on commission work and these that you have provided are awesome.

Thank you You are welcome. Crain has also done beautiful runs on Spectacular Spider-Man and Ghost Rider and Valiant titles. His paintings of Venom, Carnage, Deadpool and Ghost Rider are some of the very best commissions you will ever see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
