These have nice texture and depth to them.

jadams - are you using a stamp to produce the bulk of the cards you showed? And then flick/spray some extra paint on them?

I am using woodcuts or linocuts on top of paint.

I carved the print area by hand, then hand inked and hand pressed each card.

Cards are popping up now. I was excited for the holograms but they're not as exciting or "ground-breaking" as I would have hoped. Simply a color picture of the character with a generic-looking holographic background (looks like the Marvel Beginnings logo).

UD is claiming there's some top secret unannounced card out there to be found (for the lucky five who can find boxes).

I saw Iggy post on another board something about cut comic book panels. . . that could be the secret card.

especially at $50 a piece and $100 for the printing plates
- I'm thinking I might not be finishing this set

If a cut comic panel was their secret card, RA did that years ago.

There is no doubt this is a nightmare set for anyone looking to complete it, but also a great set for fans of long-term set building.

On this set i actually Did 46 cards not the 44 listed. I happened to include my Test cards as well. Names Roy Cover.
Here are all my cards including the AP"s.

Sorry didn't realize they were so all over the place in arrangement. I'll fix and upload.

Nice cards, Roy! I pulled the two card Champions sketch, quite happy with that.

I really like your cards Roy. Do you have a website?

Thanks, Some of these cards were scanned before I finalized them so they may look slightly different from what you'll pull. My signature is on maybe a few so I hadn't finished those yet.
I had a Deviantart gallery but closed my account. The drawings can be found by doing a search for my Username=justice41.
I came on the sets late so only had time to do Black and White. I also did a Captain America Set for Upperdeck but I don't see anywhere on here a Cap thread.

I'm sure there's a Cap thread somewhere. Do you have a website to check out your art and to order APs and/or commissions?

Thanks, I tried to do a few of the cards as origin cards. I went with the theme of Marvel Beginnings. I did ironman Captain America Fantastic Four Spiderman Hulk Wolverine Ms Marvel She-Hulk, Hulk Dr Doom Phoenix, Submariner and I believe the Punisher.

I'm interested in contacting you about purchasing some, but don't know how to contact you Roy. Hmmmm, got one other option. Hopefully it will work.

heh, Actually All the AP's for that set are gone. I have some AP's for my Captain America set though as I did more cards after the fact for Upperdeck. Here's where you can see the entire set and the AP's I did for that set.The two AP's at the bottom are still available for $250 a piece. They are Cap running and Cap on the tank holding the gun, ones.
