Hi all, I'm Nick Neocleous, also known as NIK. I've worked on quite a few sets as a sketch card artist. I’ve also been doing some book covers and illustrations for a small company called Wild Cat Books this past year. They asked me if they could publish an artbook of my work so I jumped at the chance as you can imagine. It’s called COSMIC EYE and is available now on Amazon.com or direct from me at my website

www.planetnik.com/page34.htm

To make it more fun, all copies purchased from me will also receive a raffle number. The raffle will be drawn on the 1st of August 2009.
1st prize is a 10” x 15” full colour painting, your choice of one character.
2nd prize is a 10” x 15” black and white drawing, your choice of one character.
3rd prize, 5 runners up will receive full colour custom sketch cards, their choice of one character.
The winners choose what they want drawn, (within tasteful boundaries please.)

The signed copies and raffle numbers are only available with copies purchased direct from me.
Any questions, please feel free to email me.

So without further ado.....

I’m pleased to announce

Thanks very much Harris, much appreciated.

Hi Nik,

Thanks for the email and my order has been sent

That artbook looks wonderful !!

Picked one up too. Looks pretty cool !

Can't wait to get it.

Looks brilliant Nik, Just ordered my copy!

That's great guys. Thank you so much.

I really like NIK's art work have ordered a copy or three.

Just placed my order Looking forward to a signed/Sketched copy

Very Nice indeed - even better in Reality

Thanks Hammer and Treksearcher!

Just a quickie to say that nearly all the artbooks ordered so far have been sent out, there's just one left I have to draw in. I found it a bit hard to try and bend back and hold the covers whilst I drew on the inside of them, my books don't open fully flat. So all books ordered with a drawing from now on will have the drawing done on a large sheet of white paper with a sticky back and will be pasted onto the inside of the front cover. This way I don't bend or damage the cover plus you get a much better drawing.
Thanks very much all those who have ordered so far. Please let me know when your books turn up.

Ordered - I love your art too much to let this offer go. Cheers Nik

Received my copies the other day, fantastic work by Nik. A very quick turnaround from the time I placed my order.

Nik my book turned up a day or so ago, its brilliant excellent work.

Thanks very much SteveJ, Treksearcher and CSI Dave. All books have been posted out.
I still have copies available and there's a very good chance of winning one of the prizes mentioned at the top of this thread.

Received book today Nik - many thanks - it goes very nicely with me "Nik of Time"

Nik, was the raffle ticket in with the book as i dont remember seeing one?

Thanks very much SteveJ, I'm glad you like it.

CSIDave, the raffle number is written under my signature in the book.
I've kept a note of all the names and numbers.

I've had an idea for the actual drawing of the numbers. Maybe I can get Quaint1/ Paul Bines to get me on the phone and he can pull the random numbers and I can announce the names that tally with those numbers and he can use it all as a small segment of his podcast, what do you think Paul?

Just ordered my copy. It looka amazing
