The OFFICIAL "This week in your ORIGINAL ART collection?"

37 37

The rest of the pages from the Nara resurrection sequence arrived today. You can read more about the pages in my The Blasphemy Throne art page on CAF. I still have to try to pry the other 2 pages that I am missing from bryan91 but I am at least happy to know where they are.

Just got in a great new piece of original art. I've never heard of artist Paco Baidal before, but if this is any indication of the kind of work he can produce, I'm sure he'll be well-known in the hobby in a very short time. Check this out and tell me if you don't think so.

There's a group of "new" artists that I think are really hitting it out of the park - Dave Petersen on Mouse Guard, Katie Cook's Gronk, Jeremy Bastian's Cursed Pirate Girl, Ted Naifeh's Courney Crumrin and Pricess Ugg to name a few. All have been working for years, but aren't fully appreciated in my opinion.

 

A perfect example of a great book that gets too little attention is The Stuff of Legend by Mike Raicht and Brian Smith (writers) and Charles Paul Wilson, III (artist). It's the tale of a boy kidnapped by the Boogie Man whose faithful toys venture into The Dark realm to rescue him. The story is full of emotion and action. It's a great read - a terrific story, well told.

 

Seek it out, it's more than worth the effort to find and read.

 

This all leads to the obvious, I guess. I bought a piece of CPW3’s TSoL art - The cover to the FCBD 2015 issue. Check it out here (click to embiggen):

Thanks.

Thanks.

CPW3 is a god among men. I've loved his art for a long time. Great additions to the collection.

Been a while. Some of my more recent adds

I have had this piece about 11 years but have never showed it here.

Seems appropriate to show it now with Herb Trimpe's passing.

Great Godzilla page to go along with your CGC ranked set.

Thanks. Took me a few years to get the CGC set together but well worth it.

And I'm always looking for Trimpe Godzilla pages

You ended up with some great pages.

Thanks, Bryan. I actually have 6 more pages coming. I just couldn't help myself. I think that will be it for me though. I ended up buying way more then I thought I would.

It has been quite a while since I've added any art to my collection, but these two pages came my way and I liked them so much, I made the plunge

Some pages I had the chance to add recently.

Thanks, Javier.

Great pages!

 

Great pages!

Thanks

At Comicpalooza​ 2015, I had some work added to my Easy Company jam. Thom Thomas Zahler​ (Little Sure Shot) and Joe Eisma​ (4Eyes) added ink and colors. Joe Rubinstein​ added color to Sgt. Rock and started Bulldozer when he discovered his plane left earlier than the thought. Ooops!

I think it's turning out quite nicely. Click to embiggin.
