You'd be suprised. You can get some really nice frames if you look for deals. Nice stuff, by the way.

Not even close. Lol.

The frames actually came with the art in this case. And the CGC frame was like 60 bucks I think? Which is less than the grading fees alone for the books

Now that really IS good... I guess the stories about how you get this stuff is left to PMs huh?

I have a few bits, as witnessed in my Flickr set... I'm still really after an early original page (first six issues), and an original commissioned piece produced by Eastman/Laird in the mid to late 80s. Hopefully I'll eventually find someone willing to part with either of those...

Are you specifically looking for Eastman/Laird collab commissions or single sketches by said artists from the mid to late 80s?

*Mayhem* · 01-26-2012, 11:41 AM

Preferably something they both worked on, but I'd take individual pieces if I liked them. First step though, getting a new job so I have some money to spend...

New Ken Mitchroney Art (well ok, it's about a month old. Sue me!)

Splinter and Shredder. As you can tell by using my hand for scale; these pieces are ****ing gigantic.

Donatello sketch. I love the inscription. Awww <3

New Kevin Art

This is the piece he did as practice before he drew on my leg for my tattoo. It's just a quick sharpee on comic board sketch -- but I love the sentimental value.

*Powder* · 01-28-2012, 11:28 PM

Awesome Mitcheroney pieces, dude. A great pair. Shredder especially.

*Samhain* · 01-29-2012, 12:29 AM

I usually don't like the way artists draw Splinter. But man, that Ken Mitchroney really caught my eye! Nice haulin'.

*TheCanadiandrome* · 01-30-2012, 02:05 AM

Oh man those are sick!

*Plasticplayhouse* · 01-30-2012, 07:45 AM

I believe that was done by Ken Mitchroney. I'm sure Archon will confirm.

Yup. Ken mitchroney...like it says at the top of that post... :p

*Samhain* · 01-31-2012, 08:44 PM

I should have something to show by the end of this week...

*Powder* · 01-31-2012, 08:57 PM

Hell yeah. I look forward to seeing whatever it is. I was thinking of maybe parting with a piece of art as to get another one, haha.
Who knows if I will do that, though...

*oldmanwinters* · 01-31-2012, 09:10 PM

Wow, Archon, that new Mitchrony Shredder reminds me a lot of Jim Lawson's style! Interesting!

really? Huh. I don't see it. No signature squiggles or angular anatomy.

*Powder* · 01-31-2012, 11:22 PM

I thought the same thing, honestly. There's hints of Jim in there. The anatomy, angular legs/feet/armor, but most especially the pose.
Some of the shading even.

Agreed. Especially with the shredder piece. I don't see it in the turtle though.

Archon_Turtle · 02-01-2012, 06:38 AM

Nope. Still don't see it. You're all nuts
