Need a recommendation

Can anyone recommend an artist who specializes in comic cover recreations/homages? I've had an idea for something kicking around for awhile now (Hulk related).

I'd suggest Mitch Ballard. He's done a lot of commissions featuring homages (and original stuff as well).

Here's an example of one he did based on the COIE trade paperback cover.

And here's a piece (not a cover or homage I believe) with Hulk and She Hulk in it.

Bob Layton seems to do quite a few cover recreations and the end result looks pretty good!

I would strongly recommend Michael Maikowsky.

He did an outstanding job of recreating a Hulk cover for me. I found some samples of his work here:

Is he the guy who recreates pages for the Marvel reprints when they need them? If so, he would be my go to guy for sure.

I don't know, but the piece he did for me was so good. Not one drop of white out on the whole piece.
