My latest art aquisition: Bob Layton Solar cover

Post by paradise »

So, I know it's for Dynamite project but since this in no way contributes to its success, and I love the BWS inking on this, and the fact that i am realizing I will never own a BWS page, I could not refuse this. Bob is a good guy and the b/w is amazingly MUCH better than the color (he sent me the scan). Meeting him on Wed to pick it up.

Nice one! I bet it looks great in B&W, but I love the color on that. It's reminiscent of JJ's work.

PS, seems they have some kind of protection, didn't see the pic here until I had visited it on their site.

Thanks, guys. He showed me another cover that you have not seen yet, an exclusive for a store. I am still thinking on that one.

Plus he is going to be inking a commission that I ordered from another popular VEI Cover Artist. You will know it when you see it. :)
