Scifi Cards
First Treasure Chest of 2012
First wave Shipped today.

Hope to have balance of paid orders out on Friday, Saturday latest.

I'll be shipping right up to Wednesday next week, so if you're paid in the next few days it should be no problem getting them out before Chicago.

Can't wait to see some of the cards in this collection. Ed, I think you still have a few cards, correct ? If so, Hopefully someone will take them before the Chicago Show. I know you will have a lot on your plate this next week.
Take care,
Thanks again everyone!

Hi Everyone! Ed, if you still have the last 7 cards from this chest by the time Chicago rolls in, please bring them to the show. Anyone else that would like a last call- there are only 7 left to make this chest a sellout.
Please let Ed know asap.
Thanks a million, Nonsports people are the best!
Take care,
Paul

Got mine, sorry can't scan, but quite happy.

Got a B/W Indian Chief with colored war paint and beads by Kevin O. Anderson and a color Sheriff pointing rifle by Randy Martinez. Wasn't intended, but these look right together.

Also a B/W Shazam by Michael Reisner and a color woman's face in profile by Jennifer Janesko. I really like the Janesko, but I can't tell if I am supposed to know the character. Looks a bit like JLo or Jolie, I'm sure it's not though. Wink

Thanks guys.

I picked up my 3 cards from Ed at the Chicago show yesterday. I also bought 2 Treaure Chest of Art sketches from Paul at his table (2/$25).

The 3 I got from Ed
Conan saying "Crom!" b & w by Michael Beazley
Thor color by Nathan Ohlendorf (Very Katie Cookish type sketch, nicely done)
Alphabet by Jason Adams Linoleum block stamping. I know Jason looks in here and I'm not going to say anything mean, but these stampings, while art, do not fit in the realm of sketch cards.

The 2 I bought from Paul:
Abe Lincoln the Gillman from Hellboy by Bruce Gerlach in b & w
Green Lantern in color by Lance Sawyer, my favorite of the bunch.

This is what I did for the 2012 edition.

And I appreciate the kind word's fellas.

Look I get that what I do isn't traditional for "sketch" cards, I get that it's not exactly everyone's cup of tea.

But allow me a moment to explain why I do it. I do it so normal people with normal jobs can have a cool little piece of hand crafted art for a pretty reasonable price. There are some fantastically awesome mini-masterpieces out there that can fetch hundreds of dollars on the secondary market. My intent to to counter those awesome pieces with neat little pieces.

I love to create. Everything I create is by hand, cut, printed, inked, etc. Nothing is a print done at kinkos, nothing is done digitally or mechanically.

I want to be able to do something different, something neat, and something for everyone. Sorry I didn't do sketches of big boobed super heroes because there are plenty of those out there for you guys.

Keep in mind, all the artists did these cards to benefit a charity. Something of which I a personally proud to have contributed to.

Hi Jason, you take the criticism well, and while I wasn't too happy with the alphabet, I did like the robot I got last year better. I am happy to see you doing something different for the next series.
I think it's good you aren't doing big-breasted super heroines, the nice thing about the Treasure Chest project is you can do anything. The most charming sketch I received is called "The Dreamer" by Bruce Bolinger, of an old guy in a smoking jacket with a pipe. Not a comic character or super hero. You're obviously creative, so have fun with these.
