Good call on Granov - would love to add something from Adi to my collection

I can vouch for Granov. He never disappoints.

Dang! I'll only see Adi at SDCC this year so I'm hoping to make the list again. If so it will be my 3rd straight commission from him at SDCC.

so i thought i had more at show full pieces than i actually do. for the most part i've been doing busts on my jams and its pretty hard to screw those up (although some people manage to do so).

For full figures, here's one's that i have enjoyed:

Freddie Williams - always bings the heat. Here's a DD that I'm pretty sure he did at show.

Matteo Scalera - another artist that alway's knocks out a quality at show piece.

Andy Macdonald - someone that I am not overly familiar with but was knocking out great pieces at show.

Jock - if you can get him will do a classic Jock piece.

Dan Jurgens - for the price and for it being classic Jurgens, you can get something pretty cool. Not as finished as other pieces but signature Jurgens.

Dale Keown - I didn't get this one personally, but my understanding is that this is the level of detail that you can get from him at a show.

Or at least wall paper the corner of my room

In addition to putting out tremendous work product, Adi and Tamsin are super nice and friendly and accomadating from how they handle art sales, to commission and on lists, to their sketch a day sale. With that back drop, I prefer buying art from them and sending them a good portion of my art budget then sending it to people who are not as nice or pleasant.

There are a few artists whose art I truly enjoy and that I own many pieces from. However, witnessing and reading how they treat customers or handle doing con sketches has left me now willing to purchase art from them at shows.

Isn't it crazy how that works.

Matteo Scalera without a doubt! He did this for me at NYCC13 http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryP...63&GSub=153144

Paolo Rivera as well http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryP...88&GSub=153144
I had great con experiences with Scot Kollins and Todd Nauck as well (among others)
