Artboy99 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Latest drawing I have done, 11x17", and I will likely color it in the near future. As the above poster mentioned, everyone is probably drawing Wonder Woman. Yup. The Troll King, 1950's war comics, kav and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Artboy99 Posted July 6, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted July 6, 2017 My local comic shop has offered me some wall space to sell my art on on consignment. I offered them 25% of what they sell it for, in return they have graciously offered some wall space As a thank you I gave the owner a piece of art I did awhile back. She has a love of Golden Age books, and I gave her this Mask Comics #1 page I did. It is 19x 25" porcupine48, SteppinRazor, OdinsSecrets and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kav Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Wow thats great-my LCS refuses to put up any art for sale or show because what happens is everyone and their brother come in and want him to also put up their art with the 'well you put up Joe's art-why not mine???' and its just a huge headache plus the fact that no art has ever sold. Same deal with self published books-he no longer takes them. In 2 years not a single self pub book ever sold and the creators will call the store constantly with 'any books sell this week??'. Another headache for him. ComicConnoisseur and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another headache for him. I don't blame them for the stance. Is quite a few headaches that can come of this. It was something she offered and I took it. My expectations are that I sell none of the framed original pages and I will collect them all off her walls sometime down the road. I will likely sell a few prints but those are not worth her time. And lets face it, wall space = money. She could display a book instead and has a better chance to sell it. The key reason she said yes is I offered 25% of sale value so there is some money there, and I gave her a pretty nice piece of art. Go figure she has had an offer for that piece.

Get Marwood & I Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Another trip to the loft and I find that I once appear to have had leanings towards taking over as the next Doctor Who: That's me in full Colin Baker mode. Now I think of it, I remember buying a replica of the little cat brooch that Baker II wore on his coat. I wore it equally proudly to school on my coat and then, later, inexplicably, to work. Looking back, this may have been one of the reasons I never got off with Laura Pavitt Foley and SteppinRazor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine how any self publisher or artist wouldn't have to pay some type of commission. After all, the store is paying for the retail space, and has to handle the sale.
