Your fav Sketch cards

[Guest]

[Kelly]

I just got a scan from Rich Molinelli showing my first ever commissioned sketch!  Can you say COLOR!?  Actually, it's a gift for someone else, but I wanted to put it here anyway.  It's Zam Wessel, the shape-shifting bounty hunter from Star Wars episode 2 (I think it was ep. 2).    Anyway, thanks Rich!  I know a first grade teacher who's going to be extremely happy with this!

[Nienna]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo!!!!
I think you've just earned your daughter some MAJOR Brownie points with her teacher over this card Kelly!!
Super card Rich .... fab use of colour too!!

[Rich Molinelli]

Kelly - I'm so glad you liked it!  It was a pleasure doing someone who wasn't Slave Leia or Darth Maul 

HP & Nienna - Thanks so much guys!

This isn't a sketch card per say, as it is slightly larger dimensions then a card, but it is still one of the nicest sketches I've ever received. The story behind this: Back when I had the great joy to be living in England for a few years (due to being in the US Marines at the time and being stationed over there), I ran across the address for Cam Kennedy, the artist on a good number of Dark Horse 'Star Wars' comics. I wrote him, asking if it might be possible if he might be able to send me a simple 'Star Wars' sketch, as I admired his art so. Well, he sent back a nice letter (I got this back about a two weeks after Sept. 11th 2001, so he talked about that and, as I'd mentioned the reason I was living in the UK, asked me to be safe about my duties; a very kind gentleman, Mr. Kennedy is), and a sketch, which I think went above and beyond the simple sketch I'd asked if he could do (all this, with no charge; again, a very kind gentleman he). This is the sketch he sent:



Like I said, not a sketch card, per say, but still one of the nicest ones I've gotten. (if'n I shouldn't have posted this in the 'fav sketch cards' section, my apologies)

Rich - you're VERY welcome!! I feel sure if I point my son in this direction he'd be another one clamouring after a Darth Maul sketch - you should see the MASSIVE poster he has of him on his bedroom wall behind his bed, not to mention the large cardboard promo items of an X-Wing Fighter and a Tie Fighter hanging from his bedroom ceiling too.
As you can probably tell, he's a huge Star Wars fan and has been since the age of three!

Casey - that's gorgeous sketch you have there and so generous of Mr Kennedy to do it for you in such wonderful detail!

[Kelly]

Wow, Darthmactor!  I can see why that one is your favorite.  And the story behind it makes it even more special.

OK...I had Randy Martinez do this one for me...try to hold back the gasps...

Isn't Padme just beautiful? I told him the scene I wished to have a sketch of her from and he really really came through and just did a perfect job on it.
He made a customer out of me! I am going to hopfully have him do an Episode 3 Padme sketch soon.

Martineck- 
Martinez-   

[Roz]

My goodness, that Martineck is just stunning... I think I'll write to Mr Martineck and tell him you've moved to the UK... and give him your new address, which is in Cambridge of course

I just love it! The detail is out of this world, and I can't imagine how wonderful it will look in the flesh

[goldenavenger]

Yes, nice sketch cards. Especially the Martineck!!!

[Anna]

Cool sketch Jackie!   Warren did an excellent job on it.

[Rich Molinelli]

I don't know if I'm allowed to post these but these are two favs from a series I did for someone recently so I guess that counts! 



I'm going to be gone from posting for a bit, as I need a series of tests done, so I'll be back in a few weeks, prolly around 3-4.  Wish me luck guys and gals.

I love the Indiana Jones one!! 

Good Luck, Rich!!! 

[ferdinand_the_yak]

Best of luck Rich - we'lll see you back soon!

[savage727]

Rich:

Take care and good luck with your tests.

Jackie:

Great sketch and one to certainly be proud of.   


Casey:

Outstanding sketch of the Bounty Hunter!!  Great story behind the sketch that makes it all the more wonderful.   

Semper Fi from a fellow Marine!

Semper Fi from a fellow Marine!

LOL you guys make me smile.

Semper Fidelis Always faithful. The original motto of the city of Bristol to show allegiance to the Crown ?

Of course this must be what you mean


To be fair... the Romans might have used it too   we need some Italian representation on this board



I can't remember how the Marine tune goes, and with a forum it's rather hard for you to hum it to me

They got you too, huh?  Oohrah.

Roz, poor, poor Roz, the Marines are much to special (see, I can say that, since I was one, hehe) to just have a tune; no, a tune will not do. We have the Marine Corps hymn, much better then a tune. http://www.instantknowledgenews.com/marine.htm There you go, has the music & the lyrics, for all your MC hymnial needs.
