Default Sketch Card Collection

Loving these posts with everyone's sketch cards. Don't have a ton, as I only collect a few specific characters but, here are some...

Mel Celestial AP




Irma Ahmed PSC's:



























Sara Richard AP






Rhiannon Owens 2 pc. puzzle AP:


Unknown artist... if you know, please let me know! Thanks!


Charles Hall AP:






---------- UPDATE: 3/17/13








----------

Update 3-24-13




---------- Update 3-27-13

Studio Mia Marvel Bronze Age AP (after Jim Cheung)



---------- Update 5-14-13

Sara Richard 'Emma Frost' from 2012 Upper Deck Marvel Premiere - The ORIGINAL official base sketch.



---------- Update 5-28-13

Stacy Kardash 2 piece puzzle from Marvel Bronze Age



Love the fact that all these are unique pieces. Makes breaking boxes of non sport stuff so much more fun! The chances of pulling something incredible are pretty good and instantly become a centerpiece of your collection.

Awesome collection--thanks for posting those. All of them are great, but the ones by Irma Ahmed, Sara Richards, and Rhiannon Owens stand out. And, of course, the Charles Hall

I know what you mean about the sketch cards being unique--I'm a goner for non-sports now

Two new ones arrived today! I've got a couple more on the way as well.

First up, the Sara Richard Artist Proof from Marvel Premiere:



Snagged this one during the midnight listings of Marvel Bronze Age. Listed under an incorrect artist name, I have no idea why whoever snapped up the other two didn't grab this one as well. But, I am glad they didn't...

So modest! That is a killer collection. Love the Sara Richard sketches (can't say that enough!) and I love that Shearer too. Great stuff! Maybe I should follow suite with my stuff

Thanks so much, guys! I've got another one in production right now and cannot wait to post! It's a special one that I'm planning on getting a few top artists' interpretation of a cover that I love from about a decade ago... incorporating a favorite marvel character or two.. ;0

The unknown Emma Frost sketch from the initial post looks like Jeff Confer's work to me.

^ Thanks for that. I'll definitely compare and check that out.

Well, my patience wears thin when I go weeks without adding anything. Grabbed this Batgirl and Batman. Like the style and just think it will fit in well while I try to add a few more over the next couple weeks via APs...

Showed up earlier today. Just really like the style. Worked out a deal off a BIN. Got it for the upper end of what his sketches sell for but the quality is there, so it was worth it to me.

Nice pickup--he's one artist who has really stepped up his game IMO with this release.

Finally able to get these framed up the way I wanted. Thrilled to not have anything in contact with the fronts of them, especially the Charles Hall. As I was removing them from the holders they were in, both the Richard and Hall stuck. The Richard stuck to the glass and the Hall was stuck to the large plastic toploader. No damage to either one as I was extremely careful moving them, thankfully.

Thanks. I am unable to get a scan or a pic that really captures how good that one looks. It is incredible up close when light hits the artwork just right.

I know we all can be puzzled by why artists go for X amount, but Sara Richard is one where I don't understand why she doesn't go for more. I love every single card of hers that I've been able to get.

I've got 2 more on the way. With her moving on from sketch cards, I have a Bronze Age AP that just got approved yesterday and a Batman (Poison Ivy) in production. The Batman APs were the last she had until when/if she ever does sketchcards again.
