Now taking Sketch Commission Requests!

I finally have a gap in my comics schedule and for a limited time am taking commissions for custom sketches. I get lots of requests outside of conventions, but am usually dealing with comic book deadlines that are too tight for me to consider additional work, so now’s your chance!

I am taking advance orders for Gallifrey One, Emerald City Comic Con, and C2E2, as well as orders to be sent by mail.

Gallifrey One (Pre-Order Deadline February 10)
February 17-19, 2017 – Los Angeles, CA
www.gallifreyone.com

Emerald City Comic Con (Pre-Order Deadline February 23)
March 2-5, 2017 – Seattle, WA
www.emeraldcitycomicon.com

C2E2 Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo (Pre-Order Deadline April 14)
April 21-23, 2017 – Chicago, IL
www.c2e2.com

I will appearing at all three of those conventions and will be taking orders and commission sketches there, but my sketch list fills up FAST, so even if you’re hoping to see me there ordering your sketch in advance is the best way to make sure you can get the original art you want. Plus, for ordering and paying in advance, I’m offering a $20 discount on full-figure sketches or orders of $100 or more.

All of my convention sketches are black ink on 9×12″ bristol. I will also draw on sketch covers and in sketchbooks by request. I have a supply of the sketch cover varient of the first issue of my Third Doctor series available.

Sketch Rates

Here’s my sketch rates right now. Samples of different varieties of sketches are below!

• Full Figure: $100 for the first character + $80 for each additional character (MINUS A $20 DISCOUNT for advance orders/payment)
• Head Sketch or Head-and-Shoulder: $60
• + $5 for Doctor Who Sketch Cover Book:
  The same rate structure applies to artwork done on a sketch cover – but if I provide the comic there is a $5 charge for the book, and currently I only have the sketch variant of The Third Doctor #1.

I expect demand to exceed my available time, so I will commit to commissions on a first-come, first-served basis. Place your order early so you don’t miss out!

Headshot or Head-and-Shoulder Sketches

If you want to place a commission order, fill out the form below. If you want to place an order for more than a single sketch, re-submit the form for each additional sketch.

Form is now closed.

Upon receipt of this form I will write you back to confirm the details of the order and ask any necessary follow up questions. I’ll instruct you on how to make payment via PayPal (including an extra postage & handling charge if the artwork is to be shipped). Once I have the payment I will complete your sketch it will be available for pick-up or shipped as per our arrangements.

New Doctor Who Art Print & My Schedule for Gallifrey One: Station 27

This art print has been in my head since we finally got a good, long look at Gallifrey. I just love the design and colors of the city, and the planet, and I imagined the Doctor and Susan saying goodbye to it—how emotional that last look must have been for them. Well, I finally made it. “Last Look” will be available at Gallifrey One: Station 27 this weekend.

It will be in the Gallifrey One art show, and I’ll also have copies available in the Dealers room, along with many of my other art prints, including:

  

   

So feel free to come and find me if you’d like me to personalize my signature on your art, flip through my portfolio, or if you’d just like to geek out over Doctor Who (Or Young Justice or Superman or Batman) with me. Because you know I’m always down for that. And DEFINITELY make sure you stop by my dealers room table if you want to get yourself one of these:

You’ll find me at my table most of the time, except, of course, when I’m on a panel!

My Gallifrey One: Station 27 Schedule

Here are the panels and events I’ll be part of this year!

Fri 11:30am-12:30pm – The Cornell Collective Podcast Show

Join Paul Cornell and his guests for a live recording of his podcast, The Cornell Collective, a late night chat show where, each month, Paul introduces a television writer, a comicker and a novelist, and they talk about… well, there’s usually a lot of Doctor Who, and this time round it’s just about all Who. For this chapter, Paul welcomes writer Simon Guerrier, illustrator Christopher Jones, comedian Joseph Scrimshaw and writer/podcaster Deb Stanish!

With: Paul Cornell, Simon Guerrier, Christopher Jones, Joseph Scrimshaw, Steven Schapansky, Deborah Stanish 

Sat 11:00am-12:00pm – Is the World Ready for a Female Superhero Lead?

Comic book based films are just about the hottest commodity in Hollywood right now… and while the past 15 years in cinema have seen numerous women superheroes, none are yet carrying a film on their own. We’ve seen tons of female leads on TV shows – from The Bionic Woman to Jessica Jones – so what is Hollywood afraid of? Will Wonder Woman break the trend?

With: Christopher Jones, Anita Sengupta, Audry Taylor, Michelle Thaller, Greg Weisman, David Wise, Marv Wolfman

Sat 12:pm-1:00pm – Also Known As: The Whole Story

In a world where intellectual properties are everything, where a movie or graphic novel is never ‘just’ that, and where transmedia properties are the future, ALSO KNOWN AS by Boxfly Pictures is a new science fiction epic that aims to cover movies, gaming and comics, with a graphic novel being launched at this years San Diego Comic Con. Meet BoxFly producer Haydn Pryce-Jenkins as he talks about building a property, its journey and its future, with AKA’s screenwriter Tony Lee, artist Christopher Jones and colorist Charlie Kirchoff with some sneak peeks of the artwork, and behind-the-scenes info on the story!

With: Christopher Jones, Charlie Kirchoff, Tony Lee, Haydn Pryce-Jenkins

Sat 4:00pm-5:00pm – The Craft of Comic Book Illustration

It’s not just sitting down with a pen and paper (or, more and more frequently, Photoshop and a powerful computer); the art of comic illustration is intense and ever changing. We’ll sit down and discuss some insights on comics illustration, including how it influences the writers and other creative minds, with some people who know the business.

With: Christopher Jones, Charlie Kirchoff, Todd Nauck, Blair Shedd, Richard Starkings, Lary Stucker, JK Woodward

Sat 6:00pm-7:00pm – Kaffeeklatsch: Greg Weisman & Christopher Jones

Kaffeeklatsches are small events with guests and up to 12 fan attendees. Sign-ups are required at the Kaffeeklatsch desk, next to Member Services and adjacent to the elevators on the convention floor. The Kaffeeklatsch desk opens at 10am on Friday and many sessions fill up quickly; be sure to check at the desk for updates.

With: Christopher Jones, Greg Weisman, You???

Young Justice Fans at Gallifrey One

While there will not be an official Young Justice event at the con this year, Greg Weisman and I would still like to have an informal Young Justice Meet-up on Saturday evening at Lobbycon, starting at approximately 7:15pm. So come look for us in the lobby and let’s hang out and talk some Young Justice!

Lastly, a special offer for Saturday night (including at the Young Justice Meet-up)…

Last year on Saturday night at Gally I was drawing Batman on everyone who asked. This year I am expanding the offer. I will draw either Batman OR Nightwing’s butt on anybody who asks. This is a Gallifrey One Saturday night offer ONLY. Just come find me and ask. I’ll be around. Remember, it’s either Batman or Nightwing’s butt. Not both. Choose wisely.
