Brett Ewins prelims

[Wake]

Other stuff can go on other threads, but here are some digital photos of pencil artwork done by Brett Ewins onto A4 tracing paper before being transferred to the art boards themselves. Do I hear any takers for any of the following at ?20 each? The pricing is subject to change depending on the amount of interest in them.

The photos were all taken through A4 sleeves apart from the A3 folded sheets.

16 please please please please!

And maybe 14 (so long as it stays at ?20!)

Thanks Wake, it's great to be able to get things like this - you're a lifeline!

[NikolaiDante]

Hi Wake,
I'll bid ?25 for number 16 - Sorry longman - this just has to be mine

Dante

[longmanshort]

?30 for #16

Don't make me come round there and slap you Dante!

[NikolaiDante]

Okay ?35. Bite me :)

[Mangamax]

Is there any sort of time limit on these pieces Wake?
How long are you going to leave it before selling individual pieces? I wouldn't mind one if it stays at ?20 and the shortlist would be:

5
10 or
12

[Proudhuff]

Wake, I'll like 17 (Santa C) @?20, I'm off for a couple of weeks Tomorrow can this be held til I come back?
Huffy

[Wake]

Okay, here are some rules.

1) All bidding to be on this thread only

2) Increments in whole pounds, not pence.

3) Closing time is exactly 1 week after my original post

There is the possibility of more later if these sell.

Cheers,

Wake

The page can certainly be held if you are the person who wants it. If you, or anyone else, want to email me a consealed maximum, I'll bid on the thread on your behalf when necessary.

Before the bidding for the A3 sheets gets out of hand I just want to remind you that they do have a crease (as evident in the picture) and are slightly more discoloured and brittle than most of the A4 sheets. By brittle, I don't mean they are about to fall apart.

Wake

[Mangamax]

O.k, they're fair enough rules. I'll wait and see what's what when the week is up.

[Trout]

Wake, please reserve number 15 - Anderson on her own - for me, or consider this as a ?20 bid.

BTW, now I understand, for the first time, why Brett's work often included the same image more than once. That's bothered me for years. :-)


Is there any chance, oh all-powerful webmaster, of getting Brett to sign these sketches?

- Trout

[Wake]

He told me he kept everything for reference, so it wouldn't suprise me if the same prelim created more than 1 set of pencils.

Since the sketches (and the expensive stuff) are still in Brett's house, getting him to sign them will be no trouble.

Wake

[longmanshort]

In that case, I will place a firm ?20 for 14. And if you could get the great man himself to pop his moniker on it, then I would be very grateful.

As for 16, I give up :o(

[Wake]

If anyone ends up not 'winning' one of the above prelims, I'll pass their details on to Brett with information about what they wanted to see if he can offer them an alternative.
