NYCC Haul - Dodson and Brooks

Managed to get two long time wants of mine in one show. Brooks was especially a surprise - I had written off getting one from him years ago. Also not sure if he’s ever done watercolors on his sketches before. CAF links below as well.

Beauties! Congrats on these... two great characters by two great artists!

I chased Mark Brooks for several years when he was first making the scene but I never made the cut. Your Black Cat looks fantastic and in watercolors at that!

I saw that Black Cat on Mark's Insta. Super happy to see it's a SF member's piece It's stunning. I love how it's her old costume and she is cute/sexy.

How did you score a Dodson? I've been trying to figure out how to do that for years.

I've also been trying for a few years, it's tough but not as hard as it seems. He has a pretty standardized system at this point, which he lays out in detail on his blog before every show. Basically, he will open his list for a given show at a certain date and time, at which point you can e-mail him your request and he will make a list from the first twenty people who e-mail him. From that list he will pick and choose who he wants to draw. That's half the battle.

The other half, as I found in more recent years, is that Terry has a great memory and eagerness to please his fans, and if you've been on that list enough times, and you chat him up at the show and maybe remind him after you've made the list that you've been trying for a while now, he will definitely remember you, and that can significantly increase your odds.

Thank for that info! I got lucky and already have a Brooks piece, but I was hunting for Dodson even before then. I shall keep going because I'm going to get a Storm one of these days
