X-O vs Doctor Doom by Layton!!!

k_c_collectibles · Post by **k_c_collectibles** » Sun Jul 01, 2007 9:28 am

This is a KILLER version of X-O manowar vs Doctor Doom by Bob Layton. It is in the art commissions section of his site this month:

Here is the wording that went with it:

X-O Manowar/Iron Man #150 Variant Recreation

This is another commission I did for Douglas Oberg. This time, he had me covert this classic Iron Man cover by JRJR and me to my other favorite armored character-Aric of Dacia.

Enjoy!
Chris

Off topic: Are you ready for me to ship your book yet? Although if you totally forgot about it, I wouldn't complain

Back on topic, that is a sweet, sweet commission. It makes me want to tear open the cover and read the story........

One of the things I like about Layton's art is that he never forgets the details like making sure that a metallic surface looks metallic.

That's always been his forte. He's one of the best inkers at making metallic stuff really pop.

Why would you like metal?

So the price of something like this would cost $400... thats neat to know.. with up to 5 characters!! Hmm, Ill need to start thinking about which 5 Id like to see

Im sure a more detailed background would raise the price considerably...

I think it's "based" on Fantastic Four #112...
the face-off and arm positions are similar (maybe reversed).

Oh, was FF112 supposed to be a secret?
