Royd, does Nicola ever bring blank 11x17 comic art pages to cons? The more I think of this, the more I want a hugh range of artists to draw small figures on the jam and the less I want to pay hugh amounts for big artists.

I know Nicola would knock it out of the park while still having reasonable rates.

No, she uses a sketch pad which is not as large as 11" x 17" in size. If you want to put together a jam piece on 11" x 17" paper, I'd go to a comic shop or art suppliers and hopefully locate/purchase some comic artboard/paper.

With the number of talented artists attending, I'm sure you'll be able to work out something reasonable

Just wanted to let you guys know Jim and I were chatting last night and amongst other things () he let me know that he'll be charging 200.00 for headshots at the cons, which is a markdown from his usual US con rates

That Rocket, always chatting with the stars

So is it headshots only for Jim as someone mentioned already? (Not that I can afford anything beyond that anyway)

Cheers mate! And thanks for the offer of a pickup on my stuff also! Steve has VERY graciously offered to help with a piece I've organised from Peter and getting Jim to add to it and also picking up another piece for me, but if he's somehow unable to, I'll be sure to give you a frantic call

Yep mate, flying to Sydney Friday night, gotta get home by Saturday night though. Hasn't been easy to organise getting there, but I'll be an inconsolable mess if I can't get something from Jim and Tony Moore!

I'm also coming over for Melbourne Oz Con, but that one's going to be a family road trip with a few days holiday afterwards. Two cons in three weeks, cannot wait!

Oh wow mate, action packed!!

Will be great to catch up in Melbourne, we really should organise a SF dinner\meetup on the Saturday evening especially with yourself, Luke and Steve all trekking in from out of state!
