Sometimes the best reference is the reference 'to hand' ;-)
Update
GI Joe art auction going very well. Larry Hama very kindly put up something on his Facebook page about it. Auction ends on Sunday so will be interesting to see how they go. Not just in terms of price but also how many people have been watching them.
The next batch will go up then. including this one :-)
Other news is that I have started sketching out the six TRANSFORMERS covers that I am doing for IDW. Scans soon :-)

GI Joe
Hi. Not been here for a while.Just wanted to mention that I have put four of my old GI Joe covers up for auction on eBay. I always said that I would never sell any of the cover art that I did during my days at Marvel. Truth is that after 18 years I am not as precious as I was about it. It will be cathartic to move some of this stuff and the cash will come in handy. Have a look through the covers and make a bid if you feel inclined. If not then I would be interested to know whether they provoke any memories.

Metaphor
Sometimes you wonder, well I do, whether the work you do is a metaphor for something. Maybe. A work in progress piece. Not sure where I am going with this :-|
Grimlock Colours
Went for the watercolour look again with this one. Seems to be the way I am working at the moment. Its usually done over the top of pencils but this one is the first colouring that I have done like that over inks. Seems to work o though :-)
Grim!
Been a while since I did one of these but Simon Plumbe asked me to do an illustration of Grimlock for the upcoming UK Transformers Convention, AUTOASSEMBLY2009.
this is the rough blue pencil sketch. Now to get some ink on it and see where that takes me :-)
Who??
Not been on here for a while so thought I better say hi :-)
Just bumped into a video on the net of me gassing away. I thought I would post it here not because I am an egomaniac but more because I talk about a couple of things that actually sound reasonably interesting ;-)
I was interviewed at OMEGA SEKTOR during one of our Draw the World Together events. I was questioned about DtWT, how it started and what we do so anyone wanting the background on that, have a listen. I was also asked about how I got started in comics which is something that I often get so that may be of interest to some people as well. Its a bit long but there ya go, I do tend to go on a bit sometimes :-)
How did DtWT all start? And who is Andrew Wildman anyway?

Thor
Never had the chance to draw THOR for Marvel back when I worked for them. The opportunity came up at the latest Bristol Comicexpo when we were sketching for charity for Draw the World Together. Without noticing when I was doing it it it kind of came out with a bit of a Barry Smith vibe. Fun :-)
on eBay
Four pages of Wildman/Sienkiewicz Spider-Man 2099 Marvel Art up for sale on eBay. The one pictured here is the one with the Sienkiewicz 'Batman' doodle on the back. Very cool :-)

No cards to post today.
The weekend saw the forst Draw the World Together sketching event without the sponsorship of games company NCsoft.
Artists, David Lloyd, Kat Nicholson, Jason Cardy, Neil Edwards, Andrew Wildman (me), Stephen Baskerville, Lee Bradley, Laura Howell, Andi Tong and Simon Wyatt sketched for the fans on Saturday and took donations. On the Saturday evening there was a small auction of donated items and art. We are still counting but proceeds are looking like being in excess of £600. Not bad for a small convention.
Pictures to follow.
What was great fun for me was meeting up with old collaborator Stephen Baskerville. I havent seen Stephen for quite a few years. We worked on many comics for Marvel a number of years ago such as Transformers and GI Joe. During the sketching event I did pencil sketches and Stephen 'inked' them up with black marker pens. would be cool to get some of these images emailed back. If any turn up I will post them here.
Also met up with Simon Furman for a curry in the evening. Haven't seen him for a while either so lots to chat about.
