SDCC2010 Photo Dump etc.

[Archon_Turtle]

Hey guys,
So since conventions are kind of "me time" I try not to blog too much about them while they are going on. But I wanted to make a thread here to dump photos for you guys after the various days. Feel free to use the thread to talk about the con or whatever too.

Anyway, heres tonights photos. This was basically shopping night, so its mainly photos of stuff I bought.

Tommorrow will have pictures of the floor and panels etc.

Looks a tad more defined in the facial area. Maybe its the shadowing they used around the mouth. And in the actual mouth ''slit''.I dunno.

hmmm , the dimples are a bit less noticable , but it might be the lighting like you said.

Found another pic of it. To me, it looks a bit more rounded around the mouth. But that might be the angle and lighting. All I know is after seeing this pic, I know I made the right choice in not cancelling these statues. They are gonna look amazing all set up together.

Hey Archon! I see you're finally getting into the MEGO styled figures with the Venture Bros. I knew you couldn't hold out forever. Great looking stuff you got so far. Congrats!

I usually see a few comicon exclusive stuff that I'm jealous of. This year the only thing was the 19 inch SDCC Exclusive Galactus from Hasbro. I had kind of accepted the fact that I'd never score one.

Until this site was doing a twitter contest for SDCC stuff, and through a completely random/impossible/insane stroke of luck, I scored their last Galactus from their last Twitter contest.

Shouldn't have happened (especially since my browser froze right before they posted the message), but it did. So I <3 SDCC this year.

I owe it all to Uatu the Watcher.

Not really TMNT-related, though.

Just got back in. My brain is totally owned. Will put together a constructive post soon. In the interim, photos from the whole trip can be found here.

Any scanned books are stuff I got signed, and any scanned sketches are stuff I picked up at the show.

So, I got to finally meet Kevin Eastman at SDCC. He was at the Heavy Metal booth all weekend, so I picked up the Artobiography which he was kind enough to sign for me. On Friday, I had him sketch a Captain America Ninja Turtle on my Avengers #1 blank variant cover (image below), and that night in my hotel room, I did a sketch in sharpie on the back of a comic backing board (also below), as only the beginning of a 'thank you' for all the years of entertainment his creations have given to myself and my friends.

My sketch is absolutely terrible (by my standards), because it's just sharpie and comic backing board. But Mr. Eastman seemed very pleased to receive it, and informed me that he keeps everything fans give him.

Someday, I'll make something far better for him.

Great idea! Why didn't I think of that too?!

When I got to the Heavy Metal booth, the artobiography had already sold out.

I dig your sketch, dude!
