Part of a dream comes true (Commission by Ron Spencer!)

Mar 19, 2010 06:31

I have always loved Ron Spencer's pencil work from the time I first saw it in the Werewolf: the Apocalypse books in the early 90s.

A few weeks ago I finally got up the gumption and did some searching and found a single Email address that might lead me to him. Well, my gamble worked out and I got in touch with him. I gave him some stuff to be used ( Read more... )

That's so awesome! I remember fondly the artwork of those old White Wolf books.

That is cool. I especially like the color scheme.

Pardon me; I stumbled across your blog searching up Ron Spencer art :)

Man, congrats on the commission & for having the guts to ask for it! I tend to be pretty awkward harassing artists whose work I adore. Ron Spencer does some wicked sweet pencil art and has pretty much an instantly recognizable style, so again, grats on the commission!

I bought two Werewolf/White Wolf originals from Mr. Spencer a few years back, and yeah, those were/are my dream pieces.

Cheers!

I've been pretty stoked to get ahold of him and he's been pretty good to work with so far. The projects he's doing for me are kinda stuffed between other jobs, so it isn't very quick, but they're coming along.

I've been commissioning artwork from artists at Gen Con for almost 15 years now, so the hesitation to ask for work isn't there, but I do prepare myself either for silence or rejection as well. Unfortunately, Mr. Spencer doesn't plan on attending any conventions that I'll be around this year, but maybe one day I'll snag him.

I've always loved his pencil-work as well, You're quite lucky to have some of the original WW art, so congrats. :D After this project is more fully-done, I may throw down some personal cash to have my own werewolf/weretiger character drawings done. But until then, this project comes first. (there will be more to come. I've given approvals on a "Doom Worm" and "Flesh Golems", so feel free to watch here on occasion, or you can check out www.winterhavenlarp.com when I start posting these things too. ;)
