I love the first pic! Some people are just born with mad skills man! How long did it take them to draw them? I just can't get over how good the coloring of the first pic is!

[Ghost Lion]

Okee dokee

I was at the con

The color art is 9 X 12

The Black and White is 10 X 14

They both sketched with pencil first. The color art took I think 3 hours? (I was walking around teh dealer room as he drew.)

The B&W I gave it to him on Sat. and picked it up Sunday morning.

Really like the armor highlights on Alex’s work and the Rodimus remindes me of some of the old UK comic work. On the 2nd piece by Marcelo, the noggins rock!

[Ghost Lion]

Yeah, I think Rodimus's head looks straight outta the movie, and I love the Lion head!
I didn't make the UK connection until you mentioned it. Nice eye. It was sweet he just hada set of art markers and went to town.

Sooo.....Instead of starting a thread I thought I'd continue this one and some folks who may have missed this cool art can enjoy.

Anyway, I'm looking to get some more professional art done and I've made a sort of "wish list" I was wondering what some of your professional BB or any LRG commissioned art wish lists would be. I checked into a few of my dream list artists, but many don't do commissions through the mail. Anyway, here's mine:
Mike Mignola
Peter Laird
Stan Sakai
Erik Larson
EJ Su

check out hiroaki samura's art from blade of the immortal. he's the tops in my book. i'd love to see his interpretations of prickly porcupine and miner mole. but i highly doubt you'd be able to get anything commissioned. but nerds can dream.

Should I merge the 2 threads for you?

[Scumdogg]

Damn man, i gotta step up my game! That is some crazy-good Battle Beast art.

For someone who's been doing art and attending cons for years, i don't know why i've never bothered to start a collection like this...i have precious little original art by other people, and pretty much nothing that's this polished. If i had to put together a dream list though it'd contain Mike Mignola, Joe Maduerera, Tony DiTerlizzi (not a comic artist but does fantastic monsters), Humberto Ramos, and Alex Ross. If that man can paint animals anything like he can people, it would be a thing of beauty.

seconded. anyone with that amount of talent could prolly do anything they wanted to and make it look magnificent. i also strongly approve of diterlizzi. his art in the d&d monster manuals is some of my faves. since you've opened the flood gates on non-comic artists, let's also throw in brom, boris valejo (or julie bell, they're the same basically ), frank frazetta, richard kane ferguson, carlos huante, puddnhead, neville page, iain mccaig, j.p. targete & david krentz. and back to comic artists i'd also like to see two of the less popular artists, dale keown and stephen platt, draw up some wicked laser beast action.

This is an awesome collection sweet idea I see others starting collections as I read. Steven Platt is amazing Id also love to see some Neal Adams and Portacio interpretations. Alex Ross was already mentioned and that is well deserved the man is talent through and through. But if you want some close to home talent Eric is amazing!!

Eric you surprise me every time I look at your work : )

Best,
Chris
