My first and second commissions both came from Humberto Ramos in 2007. I got him to do color Colossus and Juggernaut pieces and they came to 600.00. I was thrilled with how they both came out and they are 2 of my favorite pieces in my collection.

Humberto and his wife are both great to deal with and I highly recommend them.
Mine was a Wayne Nichols Gambit, back when he still charged 60 bucks a piece At last count I had commissioned 23 pieces from him all up (including gifts for SF mates ) I had purchased other art online and got con sketches done, but this was this first time I contacted an artist with a specific request.....
Ron Lim Silver Surfer and Captain Marvel at the 1992 San Diego Comic Con. If I remember correctly, Ron charged me $60.00 ($20.00 per character and $20.00 to ink it).
