Very cool. That printing plant was very close to my hometown and I knew someone who worked there when I was a little kid.

Wow! What an awesome collection of invisibles pages. That Thompson one is really a classic, the one that GM made her draw like Liefeld =)

Just want to share a sketch card commission I made recently. Well, very recently actually - yesterday. And already completed by Albert Nguyenemphasized text
(Iām sure I donāt need to tell any of you that itās Witterquick from Visionaries). Thatās easily the fastest turn around for an online commission Iāve ever had, hell itās quicker than some convention commissions Iāve made (admittedly itās not been posted yet).

My Ian Kennedy commission pieces arrived today.
Hawker Hurricane
A no-brainer given my love for his Commando comics covers.
Dredd
While the Dredd isnāt quite in the āDirty Harryā pose Iād asked for Iām beyond happy with it.

Great stuff Bruce. Do you mind me asking how much the Hurricane was. Iām tempted to hit Ian up for a Spitfire.

Final new art day of the year (i hope!)
2 great invisibles pages from issue 18. A very groovy Gideon Stargrave page, and an interrogation page.

If you fancy some original Frank Hampson Dan Dare artwork and have a few grand to spare then youāre in luck!!!

2 new purchases to start 2019. I was blown away by Into the Spider-Verse so wanted to get some Spider-Gwen art, I couldnāt find anything I liked from the main Spider-Verse artists available, so i got the best of what I could get. I know people have issues with this artist (for real reasons) but Iām very happy with this art, and it looks great in hand.

Nice mix of coloured pencils and water paints.
Hereās another one he did of me and the better half as Superman and wonder woman a few years ago.

My first commission of 2019 (or last of 2018, depending how you want to count it, as I commissioned in in the week between Christmas and New Year).
Virulina (off Visionaries) by Vincenzo Riccardi. Sketch card size.
Iām a bit torn on it, if Iām honest. I love Riccardiās dramatic style and itās on full display here. Plus, it was pretty reasonably priced (factoring in recorded delivery from Italy). But every time I look at it I see the fingerprint smudge near the bottom and that he basically directly copied the reference material I provided rather than using it as a springboard.

If this isnāt OK, please delete.
But Spencer Beck has started his annual sale, itās a project to go through the site, but you can find some of the best deals in OA there.
If you have never done this before, be prepared. A lot of the stuff he has listed may be sold before the sale, and a ton sells durring.
I put in a request for 4 pages and an āanything you have leftā for another thing. My guess is i get maybe 2 pages tops.

Iāve ordered from him a couple of times and once he sent me the wrong page. He didnāt really apologise either. In other news, hereās my recent Mike Vosburg commission to plug my G.I. Joe comic podcast.
He also slipped in a free pencil prelim piece.

My year of the spider continues. I got this cool page from the spider-verse crossover in the other day, and iām about to get an awesome FPS, but canāt share until itās safely in my house
