The Valiant Deluxe Hardcover, with a Bloodshot painted in gouache by Poalo Rivera on the interior page. My plan or my hope is to commission Jeff Lemire and Matt Kindt to collaborate on a piece of the fairy tale , on the opposite page.

Re: Sketch cover gallery
My newest CAFU sketch. This is a follow up to the Sunshine on Snow sketch he did for me previously. My sketch cover finally cleared customs and he had a chance to work on the commission. Love his work and I think he's really underappreciated/under valued in the comic world.
I've got a LaRosa and Crain commission in progress. I'll share those once I get them.

Re: Sketch cover gallery
He's been the easiest artist to work. I emailed him, we discussed what I wanted, how much it would cost. He turns the commissions around in less than a week, once started. He doesn't take work when he's working, but keeps a list and is great about contacting people on his list.hawkeyeps wrote:^ That's a really nice one, CAFU is one of my favourite artists.

Honestly the hardest part is getting him the material. The sketch book I sent him was held up in Spanish customs for almost 3 months.

Re: Sketch cover gallery
Thanks Greg and DBS. I have one more commission out and then I'll start my next round.
Anyone ever had any luck getting a Doug Braithwaite commission?
