I did Motor City Con for one day (Friday, which was pretty quiet, pre-Carrie Fisher.)
I figured I'd get one sketch per book max and that's exactly what I got -- so, in that regard, it was a great show!
(I apologize for the digital picture quality. Obviously, the art is clear and crisp, I was just too lazy to fiddle around with the lights to get brighter images and scanner's fried.)
Supergirl by Todd Nauck:
Todd sketches as you wait and me and my buddy ended up spending about 2 hours talking to him -- a complete pleasure!
Puff Adder by Adam Withers:
Adam and his wife Comfort Love do the indie book The Uniques which I enjoy. My goal for this year in my villain sketch book is to get The Serpent Society, one of my favorite villain stables. Love this sketch and I always love getting sketches of obscure characters.
Jason Voorhees by Mike Wolfer:
This picture is REALLY dark -- I didn't get the impression Mike does a lot of con sketching but he did oblige me this great (and grotesque) Jason sketch. In person it's got a lot of great, nasty detail.
Motor City was fun, especially as a one day thing on the back end of what was a pretty long week. I chatted with wrestlers The Honkytonk Man and Kevin Nash and finally got to chat one of my long-time crushes in Kristy Swanson, who was really quite nice. Obviously, most of the guys were getting her Playboy and Maxim covers signed so she seemed happy that I wanted to talk about 'Deadly Friend.'
