CONvergence Badge Art: #CVG2008 Guest Badges – 3 of 4

We’re counting down to CONvergence 2012 on July 5-8, sharing more art I’ve done for badges, specifically we’re still going through the badge art fro the massive number of Guests of Honor of CONvergence 2008.

#CVG2008 – Mercedes Lackey

#CVG2008 – Peter Mayhew

#CVG2008 – Andrew Probert

Another raptor image for Mercedes Lackey, making a matching set with the badge I did for her husband, Larry Dixon.

I’d thought of this image the first time Peter Mayhew was at CONvergence, but didn’t use it then because Peter didn’t know Connie yet. This time that wasn’t an issue.

The first time we’d had designer Andrew Probert as a guest I’d referenced his work for Star Trek: TNG and Airwolf. This time I referenced his role as designer of the Cylons for the original Battlestar Galactica!

#CVG2008 – David Weber

#CVG2008 – Len Wein

#CVG2008 – Greg Weisman

An Honor Harrington-esque spaceship for author David Weber.

I had fun dressing Connie in the original costume of Len Wein’s creation, Wolverine.

Spidey is about to get a surprise now that the sun has gone down on Greg Weisman’s badge, referencing his Spectacular Spider-man and Gargoyles animated TV series.

One more batch from #CVG2008 to come!!!

If you’re coming to #CVG2012 be sure to look me up! I’ll be doing two signings and on a bunch of panels.

CONvergence Badge Art: #CVG2006 Guest Badges

Sure, I just did an entry this morning, but if I don’t double up on some of these, I’m never going to catch up with the current year before CONvergence 2012 starts on July 5-8.

Below is the badge art for our #CVG2006 Guests of Honor.

#CVG2006 - Bridget Landry

#CVG2006 - David Weber

#CVG2006 - Eric Flint

Bridget Landry is a genuine Rocket Scientist, working for the Jet Propultion Laboratory, having done things such as programming flight paths for the Cassini Missions.

David Weber is author of the Honor Harrington novels. I usually try to avoid using the CONvergnce mascot Connie on the badges for first-time guests, but David was brought to the convention by his friend and returning Guest of Honor Eric Flint, so I hoped it would be OK.

In addition to being an author, Eric Flint had just taken charge of the Free Library for Baen Books.

#CVG2006 - Greg Weisman

#CVG2006 - Miles Teves

#CVG2006 - Kenneth Hite

Greg Weisman was one of the driving creative forces behind Disney’s Gargoyles.

Artist Miles Teves did design work for the film Legend, including Tim Curry’s demon character.

When not writing games and gaming-related articles, Kenneth Hite is NOT a member of the Illuminati. He is NOT.

#CVG2006 - Robert O'Reilly

#CVG2006 - J.G. Hertzler

J.G. Hertzler had just completed some Shakespearean work on the stage, but is best known to Sci-Fi fans as General Martok from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

Robert O’Reilly had just completed a directing stint, but is best known as Chancellor Gowron from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
