I wonder if Dave Gibbons got a mention in the credits...?

In a roundabout way, yes.

There's a good few of these commissions from King Carlos landing over on CAF, of late.

Mr. Ezquerra takes on commission work?! 

Well, here's hoping.
Never known of Carlos doing commission work before, and certainly i havent seen any pop up, before now.
I had asked around, a few years ago - to those in the know, and it seemed that it wasnt on the cards then.
I never got in direct contact with the great man himself, so what the real story was, i couldnt say.

But all the ones on CAF are listed as commissions, so...

After last months Russian extravaganza, TV goes all Meteortastic tonight.
Ch4 8.00-9.00pm Fireball from Space.
BBC2 9.00-10.00pm The truth about Meteors.

Tis a thing of beauty, that!

I think id very much love to have one..

'Clutching at straws' mode very much engaged.

With all the talk of peeps buying the shiny disc, and then bemoaning the fact that they didnt see it on the big screen, Lionsgate need to start a 'You missed it the first time round, dont miss it this time' style campaign and re-release it in the cinema's.

Seeing Mick McMahon's posting of a Cursed Earth commission on his blog today (it's amazing - check it out!) 
reminded me that I had drawn something very similar (though by no means anywhere near the quality) a few years back - and had completely forgotten that I had drawn it. 

Just managed to find it and thought I would post it here for you to have a look.  Cheers, Simon.

I was the lucky devil who Mick did that Cursed Earth commission for, glad you liked it as well!
But this is a seriously sweet bit of art youve drawn (I wonder if Mick's seen it?). Very nice indeed.

Is this thread still going on?

Just like how the redux version of Apocalypse Now totally ruins Kilgore's "Some day this war's gonna end" line, by then adding surfboard pinching hijinks directly after that, by continuing this thread, it rather kills Buttonmans rather lovely, and poignant photo post, from the previous page.

It kinda felt like a full stop...

(Snagged a couple of these off of ebay - a new collecting bug has been found, i think..)

I love how this thread has hit overdrive, of late. 
Some seriously nice pieces popping up.

Cam's asking prices for pages vary from insanely cheap to very, very reasonable.   

^ This.
Art collecting can be ridiculously expensive, but when dealing with the various droids, they definitely seem happy to make their art available to the many, instead of the few.
Cam is a very good example of that, as is the forum's very own Colin MacNeil.
Nice that boarders are putting money straight into their pockets. Hardly surprising though, when the art is of this quality.

And speaking of quality, thats a hell of a page youve got there, Rich.

Sweet page, Mark!
Nice to see all these Cam pieces landing for folks on here.

Scanned all my artwork, just got to sort out the references etc.
Here's an example

A top page that, and nicely scanned as well.
Nice to see all these pages that have popped up, being shown off at their best.
(I still cringe at the blurred and badly cropped photos i used to put up..)

Judge Jack - it's my fault that Ming upgraded so I kind of feel like I should too... 

You could always have said to Ming that the reason behind the comments was that you liked his cover three times as much as anybody else,

Did this song getting played on Radio 2 earlier today prompt this post?
I certainly cranked it up, when it came on. Top tune.

Just wanted to mention that all the images* in my CAF gallery (link in my signature) are now super-sized...

Oh, youve gone for the upgrade to premium!

(...and consider your super-sized Cursed Earth page well and truly checked out.)

Its a great site, CAF, so i certainly dont mind helping them out, this way.

Mark will be next, 

How do! Make yourself at home.
