Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Or is he only taking them in the huge $1K+ range as I have seen previously?
This is what Mark Brooks does, for $600 USD, 11x14 no BG.

Yes, he cherry picks them.

For STGCC he offered a 1 character on a 8 x 11 for $1k, a detailed bust for $400 and head sketches for $70 SGD.
Mine is more as it is not a convention commission and the whole story you can read on my CAF link.

My favorite part is that it's COLOR. That pink just pops off the page. And your framing choice is wonderful.

Enjoy. And yes, you are a HH
Thank you

And yes. That was the main reason I was so happy. Adam rarely does a full color piece let alone this size. I had to carry it home between foam core boards because it didn't fit into my 13 x 19 portfolio I brought with me to Singapore.
Really felt like I won a lottery!

That's where I got the idea to compare from. Luckily I hit my personal lotto this year and score a piece from Mark this year. It's my avatar right now

I read the story and found it to be wonderful. It's kismet that you got your Gwen. Color, unmasked, couldn't ask for anything better!

That's good info. For that size and price, I would almost go with the bust option.

Sorry for bumping up an old thread, but I just learned that my Spider-Gwen commission was made into a cover for NCCC '15 program book. Neither Adam or Allison told me about this but I supposed I should be happy?
Definitely excited about it though
