Each week we hunt down the coolest comic art that will most likely never appear in an actual comic book. The reason you won't see them in comics is because artists often draw sketches for fun or for commissions and post them on on their blogs, Tumblrs and Twitter accounts. Some artists even offer commissions via their sites. These drawings are too good not to be gathered up and seen by everyone.
Skottie Young's art is always a treat to see. He was recently at Heroes Con in Charlotte, NC. He posted several commissions on his website. Be sure to check it out for information if you plan on attending SDCC and want some original Skottie art!
Todd Nauck will also be at SDCC this year. This week he's been playing around with the SketchbookPro app. Check out these pics he posted on his Twitter.
I just discovered Michael Cho's blog. He's been posting superhero paintings on his site and has some original art for sale through AlbertMoy.com. Check out what he can do.
Gabriel Hardman's been posting art on his site lately and offering them for sale through the shop on his site. I got to watch him draw for a bit at C2E2 and it's pretty amazing.
Daniel HDR is constantly posting the commissions he does on his site and Instagram. Check out what he sent to me all the way from Brazil. Everyone knows how much I love Madman. And check out the colored print of his Hanna-Barbera Justice League image.
Joel Gomez will be at SDCC this year. Joel is a Mystery Art Challenge veteran and yes, I'm already putting out feelers for the next edition. We'll see if Joel and the others are up to the challenge. Here's a sketch of Hawkeye Joel posted on his Tumblr.
Robert Atkins does a lot of sketches and commissions. Be sure to check out his site for more information on how to get your own commission. Here's a few he's done recently including Penguin Snake-Eyes!
I'm looking forward to getting the chance to chat with Agnes Garbowska at Comic-Con. If you're going, be sure to stop by her table in Artist Alley. Check out these commissions she posted on her Tumblr this week.
Sadly, Chris Giarrusso did not post a Tribute Tuesday this week on his website. He did post this great Supergirl sketch.
Peter Nguyen has been busy lately. That hasn't stopped him from posting a few sketches on his Tumblr through his Instagram account.
Paolo Rivera posted a pic of Gwen on his blog that he did at the Boston Con. Just in time for next week's release of the movie.
Each week Michael Walsh does a 'Sketch Request Monday' on his Tumblr. He takes requests, chooses one and sometimes puts the image up for sale. Last week's was Black Canary.
Mike Mayhew posted a couple commissions on his Twitter page this week.
Gene Gonzales posted a couple HeroesCon advanced sketches on his blog.
Another new addition is Ramon Perez. Check out this sketch of Wolverine from HeroesCon he posted on his Tumblr.
Tom Raney posted some sketches from HeroesCon as well on his Twitter page.
Marcio Takara did a couple sketches of famous couples and posted them on his Tumblr this week.
Our last couple comes from Rafael Albuquerque. Check out these images from prints he recently created and posted on his Deviant Art page. They are definitely worth trying to track down if you ever go to a convention he's attending.
