Well, just got these in the mail today, did these a while back, so it's cool to see what I did. I'm going to ship these to my art dealer Paolo soon, but I wanted to make sure and scan them in first...because I stupidly didn't scan them all before I sent them out. I thought I was under a quick deadline when I first got them, but after I sent them out early, I found out the deadline was moved back a bunch.UPDATE: Kind of funny, I was talking to my friend Chris and jokingly looked on eBay and already saw one of my cards there. Kind of flattering in an odd way...

I didn't know that you'd done the cards. Nice work!
Some friends and I were just discussing yesterday how the card art market has taken off. Beatty said that people are quicker to plunk down the same amount of money on a couple of cards than for a full-blown sketch. I even joked that I should get some blank StalloneZone cards made for conventions. Hmmmm....
Yeah, I did these back in November, but didn't know if I could say anything. It was an interesting experience. It would be cool to do the Marvel ones, I'd go a lot crazier on those.
That's funny, I was talking with one of my buddies about that yesterday as well! I'll tell you, it wouldn't be tough at all. I was thinking of doing some through overnightprints.com with a logo and basic contact info then the other side is non-glossy blank, or with a small blue-line border.
The cheaper option is something like vistaprint. The stock is similar to a trading card, which would be cool enough. Even yet another option would be make a sheet of the cards on bristol and run them through your own printer. Once you designed the back of them, you could just print off sheets, cut them up at a standard size, and have them for cons.
Either way, I'm sure that a lot of artists would go with it for free. I think that would be a cool collection. You should do it!
