Jon, These are really nice. I like the zoomed-in or close-up approach on these. The colors are very vibrant. And I think I spy a puzzle or two-parter sketch lurking in the background.

The Spray Nit wacky always reminded me of Wally Wood's artwork in the original Mad magazine, even as a kid. Good work on your version of this classic card! A

These are all great but its really tough to pull sketches so a lot of people will not see them. Same as the Camera sketches.

Post by: jg2000 on July 31, 2014, 02:52:43 AM: Yeah, I've noticed these have been tougher to find, it may be all part of the thrill of the hunt. Keep looking!

I hope we at least get to see the artwork for the cancelled Star Wars series. I wonder how much work was finished on these. One of the artists who worked on them was Randy Martinez.

A side note... If he's not held in check, Tantrum can turn into Barman

Post by: Joe G. on March 11, 2017, 06:29:04 PM: Rob, that Tantrum sketch is killer! Jon's work is exceptional. I was lucky enough to see some of his sketch work for Wacky Packages 50th and it's nothing less than spectacular!
