A Rookie Asks, How can one commission a Dave Gibbons Sketch???
1 1

5 posts in this topic

I realize there may not be an answer to this question but I would rather ask the community and know, than not ask and maybe miss my chance. I would love to get a sketch/commission from Dave Gibbons. I have tried at previous cons and have not lucked out. The sketch I would ask for really would not be more than a bust of a single character. Is there a way to reach out to Mr. Gibbons and or a rep? Any advice for this rookie art collector would be appreciated. Thank you.

You have already been given the best answer. Even if you only want something small it's still likely to be fairly pricey... but I reckon your chances are good.

You do kinda have to luck out at conventions to get a nice sketch off of him or just catch him when it is quiet. My guess is that the latter is especially difficult to do in the USA.

With most commissions you never know exactly what you will get so its kind of tricky . And there is always a long waiting list .

But you should try regardless, lots of luck!!!!
