I'm absolutely floored! I've never been happier with a commission... and I've gotten a few.
Mr. Stevens obviously has the talent and he's a phenomenal businessman to boot.
Thanks Chris! :thumbs2:

Out-f'n-standing! Chris just keeps knocking them out of the ballpark.

Saint, I highly recommend it... not that you need any more encouragement. Chris' work speaks for itself.
Thanks Alex! I saw an Alan Davis drawing of The Spirit that I liked a lot and asked Chris to pay homage to it with these characters. I'm VERY happy with the results.
I have commissions from lots of artists and have to keep them in art portfolios... wall space is all too finite a resource in my Fortress of Attitude... but this baby's getting framed and going on display!

Fantastic piece, great concept. His marker work is incredible. Hopefully I can get on his list the next time it opens.

Wicked. I must get a marker piece from Chris.
Very cool idea and beautifully executed! Congrats cyberpunk12 :)
Hmmmm.... seeing all these fab commissions is making me think about adding another piece by Chris to accompany the pieces already in my Chris Stevens gallery. It's wonderful and painful at the same time seeing all these awesome commissions ;) Best,

Thanks a bunch guys. This is the first time I've ever drawn Spider Woman though I've always liked her design. It was a fun one:)

Thank you very much, Mike. I'm really glad that you're so happy with it. This would like nice on a wall....if I do say so myself:)

This would like nice on a wall....if I do say so myself:)...and so it shall be!
Chris, I just want to say thanks again. This is cover quality stuff and your attention to detail is so focused. From the wood grain on the pallet to to the lighting effect from the venom blast teaser, I'm out of praise-like adjectives for this... It's my favorite-est commission ever. :D
...and thanks for the congrats guys!

Werewolf By Night guest starred in Spider-Woman more than once and those issues really stand out in my mind. Jessica Drew's rougues gallery leaves an understated something to be desired, but you can't beat a werewolf!
Most of my Spider-Woman commissions have been the typical in-flight poses, with a few standing shots, and of course some wall-clinging designs... the fact that I get most of them at cons hasn't helped because time works against you at shows.
With this commission, I was hoping for something more than the usual pinup. Jessica Drew was supposed to be a detective and I wanted something that played up that angle.
I saw a pic the great Alan Davis drew of The Spirit and wanted to see Spider-Woman in the same pose, looking for clues, with a hint of her adversary somewhere in the background. Chris did the rest!
He roughed out a sketch and showed me the prelim before moving forward. How many artists give you that courtesy? Chris Stevens is the goods. :thumbs2:

Gerry- That's the one! I saw your entry and liked it a lot... There were so many great entries, I wouldn't have been able to choose a winner.

Thanks everyone. This one's been getting a really good response. I never know until it's been seen.
Jack of Hearts..yeah, I don't know much of anything about this character, but he sure does have a wacky costume. Is that the appeal? Anyways, it should be an interesting piece to do.
