15 packs yielded three sets of the 20 base cards, one foil EF-3 and 15 sketches.I had assumed the foils were going to be randomly packed but mine was separate in its own sleeve. There cannot be many of these foils about if they have been sent out like this, I would guess only about 15-20 of each of the three cards.




Daerick Gross Snr ?, Puis Calzada, Roy Cover.





Steve Lydic, Kimberley Duanaway, Chris Bradberry.





Elfie Lebouleux, Emmett Taylor, Richard Cox.






Debra Quinn, Gary Kezele, Daniel Wong.




Tim Shay, Gavin Hunt, Francois Chartier.

That 'Adam Braun ?' looks an awful lot like a Richard Cox sketch from the style. Love those final five sketches Thumb Up

You are correct Thumb Up ! In my defence I have only ever pulled one sketch by Mr Cox before Smile .

I was lucky in that I had spare funds available when this release went on sale and also had guaranteed buyers for both my spare base sets.

My past experience with this type of set with what I would consider high end artists has been that the more you buy the better your pulls simply by the law of averages.

Are you able to post pictures of your two sketches? No release will have all top of the line sketches but I have yet to see a poor one from this set.

Just had a reply from Jim regarding the foils . There were indeed only 50 in total so just 17 of two of them and 16 of the third Eek .

After a LOT of failures, I finally (I hope) figured out how to take better pictures with my camera. Here are my two sketches. I am NOT saying they are bad sketches, anything but. However, they are not what I was hoping I'd get. I'm not an art critic, I just know what I like!

The second one isn't bad at all. I prefer more of a scene to just a tight portrait myself. The first one is not that good.

You're right of course that everyone has their own idea of art and what they like. Some of the sketches shown here are really top drawer, but I'm not really into babes drenched in blood, so it's not for me.

I think that's why I like the second one too, no gore. Big Grin
