While at the conventions I do a lot of sketches that don't see print anywhere! They are drawn on the spot and whisked away to a private collection. I love it that these pieces are given a loving home, but they also need to be shared and enjoyed by everyone!
THAT'S WHAT THIS POST IS ALL ABOUT!
Every two weeks I"ll update the link below to display a different convention drawing! If you have one of my convention sketches, or even a full blown commission, send me a scan and I'll be sure share!

O.K.. this piece is a lot more than a sketch... it's a full blown drawing, and I just had to share it and the story behind it...
I was asked by Upperdeck to draw a Thanos card for a future set of the VS card game. Originally I penciled the card and brought it with me to Wizard Chicago... a fan at the show liked the way the card was coming along and asked for a Thanos commission of his own... I agreed and after executing it I decided that I liked it better than the original pencils of the card. I told the fan how I felt and made him a proposition... I said that he could keep the Thanos that I produced for him, or that he could let me use the image for my trading card in exchange for a much larger Thanos piece... Attached here is the agreed upon larger piece! This Thanos is a whopping 14x17!
Keep your eye pealed for a Thanos w/ Spider-man card in a future VS card set. I will be my first work on marvel characters!
Anyway.. I thought that it was a beauty, and just had to share!
