Popular Post Pixx_L Posted November 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) I couldn't find a thread like this (outside of commissioned work) so I thought I'd start one. Share your favorite convention sketches you've gotten from artists over the years. There may not be conventions we can go to but why not make an artist's alley! (Personally I like the mess and impressionism of a sketch to a polished work many times). Below are a few of mine: Edited November 24, 2020 by Pixx_L RBerman, BuraddoRun, John E. and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rlextherobot Posted November 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) From Comicon 2003, JH Williams III called this his "warmup" piece. What an incredible talent. From a Vancouver comic show in the mid-aughts, Gene Ha did these in exchange for charitable donations. A friend got KC Green (the cartoonist behind the infamous "This is Fine" Dog) to do this one for me, the characters from KC's Anime Club strip.

Popular Post Latverian Tourism Board Posted November 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2020 I got this one while chatting with Mr Mignola at SDCC. Super nice guy. Hellboy (obviously) and Baba Yaga. I got this from Jae Lee. Also at SDCC. He had to finish it at home and send it off to me, and it was totally worth the wait. I’d asked him to give me a definitive win, whichever way he wanted, and he delivered. I’m looking forward to seeing how other artists decide this matchup. timguerrero, Benedict Judas Hel, BuraddoRun and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mking78 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Posted these a few times before, from 1971. Two very nice sketches done free for a teenage fan at a small Atlanta convention. What a great memory. BuraddoRun, Caltex98 and Pixx_L 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuraddoRun Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Here are a couple of mine. The first is Lei-Lei (or Hsien-Ko) by Joe Vriens that I commissioned at A-Kon (an anime convention) a few years ago. Joe has worked with UDON Comics on the various Capcom properties, such as Darkstalkers (where Lei-Lei is from). The second is The Little Mermaid meets Godzilla (Hanna-Barbera version) by Philo Barnhart. Philo's parents were both animators who worked for Disney and other studios, and Philo followed suit. He's an animator who worked on lots of great productions, including Secret of Nimh, Dragon's Lair (the video game), Beauty and the Beast, An American Tail, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, The Little Mermaid, and Godzilla (the 1978 TV cartoon), and others. Fun fact: He created Ariel's shell bra's final design. I got this one commissioned at G-Fest XXVI (a Godzilla convention) last year.

She was hired to do Power Pack in the first place because she knew how to draw kids. Yes, the two youngest. She was working from photographs and turned this around in about an hour. Her likeness of the older son is dead-on. BuraddoRun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Brian Peck Posted November 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 26, 2020 Romero Tanghal was setup in artists alley at SDCC 2004, hidden behind a large display. After he did this great drawing at the show I dragged a number of collectors to his booth to request some for themselves.
