Description Here are some sketches I did on various blank variant covers at cons recently. Some of the Marvel covers are a nightmare to work on with markers, I am slowly learning which ones to steer clear of!

Nice! 2 of mine are up there (Ray Fillet & Psylocke) - they look even better in hand!

Love that Leo posted as well!

Nice variants! I was excited when I saw the IDW TMNT title for I thought they had asked you to make them some cover art. I'll continue waiting!
I particularly like the Psylocke cover.

I love the shiny latex effect on the Black Cat. Super nice.

mmm yeah markers tend to erase/mix with the inked line on these stuff :/
For my part I switched to simple grey inkwash in the end, and finally it was way better/easier

I've been thinking about trying the gray wash idea to get around the marker problem, glad to hear that it worked for you.

Holy hell, that Man Ray is INSANE. I'd love to see that picture by itself. Amazing.

Yes I did! I thought the name merdude was used in the tv show but I'm not so sure.

I commissioned Mr. Dooney for that sketch back a few years ago at C2E2. To this day it remains one of my favorite sketch cover commissions I've had done. Worth every penny I paid for it.

Are you going to post these individually at any point?
