We decided it was time to get our first sketch for the day after an early morning reconaissance mission of the con
I saw a familiar and famous face in the crowd - It was Colin Wilson artist of some gr8 Dark Horse SW books and also publishing books in french as well as some TPB stories with the likes of Garth Ennis and Ed Brubaker
He is currently in negotiating one of his more french riske crime TPB with Vertigo after it has been picked up by paramount - well done Colin
He is more known for doing his only and first superhero sketch last year for our very own Avenger a gr8 Jack Of Heart Sketch that started the international con sketch exchange program LOL
I got Juzzy his first con sketch in Oz
here is colin
here is Juzzys sketch
here is another one i got a pic of - for one of our good buddys Corey Low - who got also one of the very first Jim Lee sketches of the day( appearing later in the thread)
Colin was convinced to do a special project/commision for Juzzy and I for a special little lady - looking forward to looking through the mail in the next couple of weeks
we also bought one of his TPB s for this little lady and Colin put in a free sketch inside with a nice message
Juzzy was looking a little thin and weary maybe it was the subject of the pic that clouded our judgement or the remaining proof of two black eyes but after laying down a few sketch request which will appear later it was time for lunch at the casino(smart move - looking at the con food only second to hospital cafetaria LOL) my family arrived in tow and off we went - gr8 timing
