NYC Comic Con

Well, it's convention season again. It's starting earlier and earlier. In fact, it's almost year 'round now! I will be attending the NY Comic Con and I am now taking commissions for delivery at that con. I DO NOT HAVE A SPACE AT ARTIST ALLEY. I will be signing at various booths around the show.
So, if you're going and would like to get a piece of art. I can take 10 commissions before the show.
It's first come, first served and once the list is full I cannot take me no mores!
Art Menu is as follows all on 8 x 10 paper
BLACK AND WHITE LINE ART $100 PER FIGURE
WATERCOLOR 1 FIGURE $250
WATERCOLOR FIGURE WITH BACKGROUND $500
WATERCOLOR MULTIPLE FIGURES (price varies) Ha! I wanted to write Market Price like in a restaurant.
I can only do a couple of full color ones before the show, so, if you want one of those- jump on it before the list is full. Once I get to 10. The line is closed.
I won't be able to take any more until a week before Wonder Con!

Whassup jill, i am Alyako from all the way from Brazil, and i want to ask you: What do you know about vampires?

I know that I would not like to meet one in a dark alley...unless i had a squirt gun filled with holy water, a garlic necklace, a few sharp pointy sticks and some super strength...
And i do know that I enjoy the fokelore...

Bill Anderson said...

Jill, do you have a schedule of when and where you'll be appearing? I'll be at the show and I'd love to stop by and say hi.

Hi Jill,

I am interested in a black and white piece of artwork of the Scary Godmother for $100. I could not find a email link, therefore I have posted on this blog. Please let me know if there is a better way to contact you.
Additionally, I have a friend who would be interested in a black and white "Death" piece.

Thank you very much. Hope to hear back.

Bill H.

Jill,

I would love to be added to your sketch list for the NYCC. My buddy Bill H. already mentioned me in the above post -- I would be looking for a B&W "Death" commission. Thanks so much for the offer. I look forward to hearing from you.

Bill H and Lou-

You are taken care of! Thanks for shopping. Hmm. Now where to do the hand off? I will be signing at the Dark Horse Booth on Saturday and at the Kids Love Comics booth on Friday and Saturday. I'd better post my schedule.

Hello Jill, I am interested in getting a watercolor commision of Harry in the bathtub reading comics. I don't know how else to get in touch with you to work out the details and such so I sure hope this works. I will be at the show on Friday, so I hope this is not too late. Thank you very much, and I hope to hear from you.

Jill Thompson said...

I'll be at the Dark Horse booth on Saturday from 1-2 signing stuff. Chickengrease- you will be there Friday/ When you say you want Harry in the bathtub, that would be considered the sketch with a full background and would be the most expensive. is this what you would like? I will be at the DC Comics booth on Friday at 1 pm to get you your commission. Is that okay?

Chickengrease said...

Thank you so much for responding. The scene from Wild About Harry #2 with him reading comics in the tub is my wife's absolute favorite!!! I am onboard with this commission, and I am just confirming that the price will be $500. A question for you is how would you like to receive payment? Another question for you is if we miss each other at the DC booth, is there another chance to catch up with you on Friday at the convention? The lines were so long last year, it almost took us almost an hour to get in to the show, and I would hate to miss you!
Thanks again and hope to hear from you soon,
Shane W.

Shane, we can make a plan to meet up. Shoot me your e-mail address on here so I can schedule a time and I'll delete the post as soon as I get it. unless you do not mind it up here.. You are correct about the price. I accept cash, of course...and money orders,a cashier's check...

Jill,

If it is ok with you, Bill H. and I will come by the Dark Horse booth on Saturday during your signing to pick up the pieces.

Thanks again very much -- we greatly appreciate it.

So wonderful to meet you at the Con, even briefly. I've been a fan for so long I was terribly flustered to speak with you but it was a highlight of my trip regardless.
