Just got back home. We were up till 5am finishing paints, Ariel leaves for Comic Con at 9am! Crazy!
Mike delivered an exceptional paint job on an exquisite figure, and repainted the eyes, dress, and toenails again, and again, and again... until they were 'just right.'
This is one of the most high impact and significant pieces of art I've ever participated in, and I'm proud of the craftsmanship involved in her creation. It took a long time, much effort, and several miracles from friends to get her to the show on time. We made it by hours... by inches. But we made it. Ariel Chylde will be there for her 15th Anniversary, as she should be.
We listened to your observations on the last piece, and truly agonized to create an elegant work - what we are calling 'the fine art Ferrari of comic book statues.'
Will be signing Saturday from 5:30 - 6:30 at Image Comics.
See you at Comic Con.
