Had you asked me yesterday morning I would have just put up a picture. However I then had an idea and got a bit carried away. All will be revealed soon (assuming there's no computer problems - ha) but Baskerville-wise, here's a sneak preview:  |

Tease!
Is it a re-imagining of Optimus Prime from US#80?

Ooh I shall have a guess. I think it might be a recreation of the splash page from issue 199 Cold Comfort and Joy Andy |

How thick am I? I completely missed the "'89" on there!

Any more guesses?
I plan to reveal all around 18:00
And should I escape arrest, you will then find out what this mysterious art is.

Same pricing as other comissions, so... A4 (21cm x 29.6 cm), featuring 1 character and background for £50 + postage (£75 + postage for 2 or more characters) or A3 (29.6x 42cm),featuring 1 character and background for £90 + postage (£120 + postage for 2 or more characters). If you'd like any of these options, but without any background, just deduct £20 from any of the above prices. |

I did wonder if "2 or more characters" would mean getting the entire Transformers cast in one go for the same price?

Possibly not. When more able, I might ask him to recreate the 'TWINS OF EVIL' cover with Galvatron and Megs being very camp. I think one of the AA chaps owns the original of that: I've seen it at the art display at AA

I've noticed Baskerville has also listed similar portraits for other comics he did with Wildman, GI Joe and Spider-Man's Black Cat. He's also taking commissions on these.

Mr Baskerville is now, officially, the most awesome person ever!
Some weeks after receiving his black and white piece for the wraparound cover of Hubris 10 (hitting letterboxes in April/May!), and not expecting to hear from him again, out of the blue Stephen has emailed me a fully coloured piece (at no extra charge) to use!
Like I said, awesome!

I can only imagine how long it's taken to colour it all. Plus it's Total Marvel UK style as well!

Mmm. He had that up a few weeks ago, surprisingly it went unsold. Although I was quite tempted, I decided I'd rather have an original page.
