Oh Damn

So, going to NYCC in a few weeks. Flat broke at this point, so Bek offered to buy me a commission there for Christmas. Best Person Ever. <3 So I looked up the people going there, and someone will have to keep me from smack JT Krul or banging Tony Daniel's head against a wall until he goes back to just drawing and my list of artists I'd want

Amanda Conner's Jason would be the awesomest thing evar.

You do know that Hughes' commissions have to be arranged for prior and tend to cost upwards of $1,000, right? Anyone that's big-big like Conner would probably run maybe ....$400+, as well. Unless you're talking quick sketches. Hughes does them in this style for about $60-90. Most do have artwork already at their table, but it tends to be stuff they've already sketched out and inked and usually never under $200. Your best bet is going to someone relatively unknown/not a pro, tbh.

Prints tend to be a bit more reasonable (about $30-40) and sketchbooks are usually about $15-$20, which is usually the best investment if you think you'll ever resell.

Oh, and Manapul's were $350 in 2008. And that was before he became a regular artist on the Flash and had a show on Sy Fy (he's that dude on Beast Legends). I'd assume it's shot up.

Guh! Lucky lucky you! I'd go with Manapul myself, that dude is FANTASTIC. Right up there with Ramos and Jo Chen as my favorite comic artists.

Now I'm just going to go over to this dark corner here and nurse my envy until it turns me into a world-ending mega-villain...

If I send you money will you hit give Tony Daniel a dirty look on my behalf?

This might help with your decision making

Hey, if you see a woman cosplaying Granny Goodness, that's bitemetechie, a fellow fanfic writer.
