The series included actual sketches from quite a few other artist and were inserted randomly in a pack so that you had the possibility of owning an actual piece of art. If I remember right I did over 500 sketches, some artist did over a thousand (believe me 500 was enough for me) Fun project....Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07999371970535636707noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22472060.post-1141260278543512082006-03-01T16:40:00.000-08:002008-04-17T21:14:44.666-07:00Godzilla - Japanese Monster<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1558/2285/1600/Godzilla1964.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1558/2285/320/Godzilla1964.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Here comes TROUBLE!

He's probably best known for his work on Conan. I did a search on Google but could not find if he has a site up. I did find lot's of scans from his "He-man" and "Transformers" days along with some of his "GI-Joe work. The best thing about this piece is I got to keep the original. Earl did Hercules and I did the background and all the cool skulls along with the monster I can't remember the name of.... oh well.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07999371970535636707noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22472060.post-1140206443009496442006-02-17T11:46:00.000-08:002008-04-17T20:33:59.026-07:00Like I Said....<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1558/2285/1600/FairyFinal5.2%20copy.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1558/2285/320/FairyFinal5.2%20copy.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>..... no particular order.
