Fatboydale,
Thanks for the appraisal. From reading through a LOT of posts, assessing opinions both fair and dubious, the gist I got was that cover paintings go for more or less £300, but Dredd art can command double that.
Frankly, I think 2000ad art in general is greatly undervalued for the quality of work you get (on average), particularly in comparison with the wider market outside comic art. If this forum is representative the fanbase wants to keep it all strictly parochial.
And there is another issue - how much comic art is still being done traditionally? Painted art is becoming increasingly finite as artists switch to digital if they haven't already.
btw, I got this painting from Mark directly, in a trade subsidised by services rendered. That I am even contemplating selling it all is a sign of my financial difficulty because I feel I am disrespecting Mark by doing so.
