The card you have tagged as Marmalade Duke is actually a Mike Vasquez. Nice haul.

Well I can account for packs 11 to 35 - Me. I should have chance to scan them soon, but will not be able to post them all due to content.

This sounded like a great idea, but the sketches I've seen so far do nothing for me. However, this seems, to me at least, the problem with almost all the sketch cards being inserted in sets lately. With boxes going for $65 and up, and the main reason to buy one is to get the sketch, I would want a drawing worth (again, to me) $65 or more. So what I do now is buy two boxes, open one, frown at the sketch I pull, put the unopened box in my closet (it's part of a complete set in my opinion) and then find any sketches I like on Ebay or at card shows. This works the best for me. And yes, I've read all the arguments and reasons for the sketch cards being what they are, all of which are reasonable, and I feel for slighted artists, etc., etc. But - bottom line - I'm still only going to buy sketch cards I like, and if I can't get them from opening packs (although I HAVE pulled some nice ones from packs, don't get me wrong, but they are so far and in between I can't afford to do this now) I will seek them elsewhere.

Here are some of my pulls, as I said some of them can not be shown due to nudity.

Firstly the Boo cards:

















Now onto the other artists:


Pablo Diaz / Boo's Mum & Boo


Fer Galacia / Dan Gorman


David Hardy / Frank Kadar


William Kunkel / Elfie Lebouleux


Chris Meeks / Jennifer Mercer


Rich Molinelli / Tim Proctor


Luke Smarto / Mike Vasquez

As for the ones I could not post there are cards by:

Boo, Francois Chartier, Kat Laurange, Dreek Owens, Walter Rice and George Webber.

Thanks to fantastic collation a master set and more! A great value release with some wonderful art. My only minor niggle is that I like some sort of base card set even if it is very limited 9.5/10

Thats why I buy these type of sets rather than boxes. Far from being $65 for one sketch these were approx $22 for two sketches Smile .

Nevermore Fan congrats on getting that Chris Meeks which is the back of all the Boo sketches Thumb Up .

Thanks for that Triple-Frog, it was a great pull - as were the others. It was also featured in NSU I believe.

I wonder where all the other scans are?

Awesome scans guys, i love seeing your cards that you got hold of

I know some of the customers i sell packs to dont go online to card websites like this and some are re-sellers so you wont see their numberd packs on here, you can spot them appearing on ebay or they just never show up online.

Personally I feel our packs at Boo & Martys Cards are great value since a serise is often limited to only 100 or 200 packs, theres always 1 high quality sketchcard in every pack and then often a bonus.
DeadSexy packs came with an additional double sided postcard print, Nevermore Alice Drinkme Eat Me came with a free bonus sketchcard, Nevermore Alice 1, NA Flux, NAWinter Solstice, Angles&Demons and Island Dreams all come wit basecards and the packs are a great price from £11 to £15 pounds, less than most people spend on a take out here in the UK.

Whats more we listen to and take customer feedback seriously, with our early sets we got feedback about packing and that led me to design custom sleeves for every set.

Many other companys want to produce hundreds or thousands of packs because they are very very interested in mass production... we are not, we focus all our time on high quality artist driven cards and sets with limited edition production runs Smile

I'm getting over a cold right now, and then i'll be finishing production on a brand new set - Britannia www.britanniastrikes.blogspot.com
thats going to be sooooo exciting.

OH and do folks like sketchcards being use as the card back so that one lucky collector can find that card in the packs? let me know
