Awesome Art Picks: Archangel, Damian Wayne, Gambit, and More

The coolest comic book art you won't see in comics.

Throughout the week, we search and gather up the coolest comic book art that you won't see in actual comics. The reason you won't is because artists draw sketches for fun or commissions and post them on their websites, blogs, and Tumblrs. Some artists even arrange commissions through their sites so be sure to check them out.

Philip Tan posted some more sketches on his Facebook Page.

Peter Nguyen has such a beautiful style. It's a shame though, because his artwork could be the next big thing like Larocca, Madureira or Jim Lee even, if he just practiced more to get solid structure and anatomy in line.

Does it piss anyone else off that he did this in 5 minutes!? I like it!

I'm jealous of his quick-draw.

@doomdoomdoom: It would have been amazing to watch. Youtube has a lot of quick draw videos. I like watching people draw. I'm the same way. Couldn't do that in 5 days even haha.

Dustin Nguyen's sketches of the X-Men are beautiful and the Alpha Flight rendering is gorgeous. Mahmud Asrar impressed me too, especially with his Sif creation.

Me too!

I also liked the first Flash sketch, I could feel the intensity coming out of that drawing. But of course that Nova drawing brought the biggest smile to my face.

I like the She-Hulk pic, because it looks like the 4 is actually distorted by mega-boob, but I just cant support the idea of other people ever joining the Fantastic4. Except for Thing, they are a family, so its different than a regular team.

I think of it like this: once they put the name out there, it became a marketing angle. If one of the original group left, they had to have a replacement so there were still "Four." Otherwise, their public would question the name. <shrugs> That's the why of replacing people for the comic too.

FF She-Hulk is awesome. Agree the Archangel is another knock-out. Lots of excellent picks this week.

Is this the first time we've had a Powers piece on Awesome Art Picks?
