Convention sketches needed...

[Buddy]

Well, scans of them anyway.

I'm putting together a website dedicated to sketch art and need as many convention sketch scans as you can supply.

If your sending a scan please follow these instructions:

Please scan full size at 200 dpi (up to A4 of course)

Please scan RGB, even if the sketch is done in black pen or pencil, many artists do a bit of pencil outline before adding the black line art, this kinda stuff looks good (to me anyway), and save as a jpg.

Sketch can be of any comic book character/machine/whatever, doesn't have to be 2000ad related, all sketches welcome.

Please state who you are and where you got the sketch.

Any additional info about the sketch is greatly appreciated, just a few lines, ie:-

I stood in the Simon Bisley que for an hour in the sweltering heat at Bristol '04 eventually getting a batman sketch from a very pissed Bisley as he had consumed a bottle of whiskey/red bull while doing the sketch session.

That sort of thing.

Forward the scan to con_sketches@yahoo.co.uk

A prize for the best sketch!

Thanks,
J.

Feel free to use any of the sketches that I have posted on the "Rogues Gallery" thread- but I'm afraid you'll have to resize them all yourself.

Hey Dane,

You can nick any of the ones from my site linked below.

As can Wake if he wants...

Look forward to the site

Oh, and I'll need the artists name if it isn't plainley obvious from the sketch.

Does anyone have any objections to me lifting the scans from the sketches section of this site?

Cheers.
J.

[Richmond Clements]

Not at all. I'll send you some more later.

[Buddy]

Cheers Dane, could you post a link to the thread - I can't find it!!

Full size?

All artists and characters are listed. All the ones I posted are from the last Dreddcon with the exception of Simon Coleby's image which was done post Dreddcon, on the back of a t-shirt.
