Happy day-after-Australia-day-so-let's-have-a-public-holiday Day! Last time we focussed on Marvel, let's not forget about my guys at DC. Then after that, stay tuned for something really Rocket-tastic

Just ordered another commission from Paulo Siqueira - he sent me some designs and I picked one out. It will be a 3 character inked piece featuring Jim Lee era Jean Grey, Psylocke and Rogue

Arranged to purchase a Jorge Zaffino page from Winterworld from the 1980s Eclipse series.

Hoping to pick up a commission from Supanova guests at the April shows.

Whew

Sounds nice. I have managed to avoid the "art bug" as I call it. Have enough trouble with my statue collection and penchant for silver age key books!

The Siqueira piece does sound like it will be great, Royd. Love the Jim Lee renditions of the X-ladies.

Howdy! I've put my action figure/collectibles collecting aside, and put most of my energy/budget into acquiring original comic art/commissions.

My list of required artists is ever-expanding, as I've got a checklist I'm going to try and fill for 2014/2015. Tim Sale is the top of my list, so don't mind getting more than a few of his pieces

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Also a name known around these parts, fellow collector Jason visited my place for the first time during the week, and gave me a KILLER idea for a fourth piece also!!

Virtually every commission I've seen by Paulo has been outstanding (similar to my impression of Chris Stevens' work) so I'm hopeful that my request will turn out along similar lines

The "request" came about when Paulo said at his deviantart page that he would love to do a piece featuring the 3 X-Ladies from the Jim Lee era so I said, "Okay, that will be my commission request" - he was delighted!
