I just wanted to show this off. I actually know the artist who did this and honestly the responses just piss me off. I already posted my 2 cents. I hope other will also. http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=102106 |

I think that the litho turned out beautifully, and charity = awesome.

im not one to be picky
its tough even using photo references when you draw stuff like this. the people are so "in the eye of the public" that even subtle inconsistencies can wreck the likeness and the artist did well translating the photos
plus, its charity.

ALL HEIL MEIN FüRER! Join Date: Jun 2002 Posts: 11,348 Location: Better than yours News Credits: 10 | I have a particular dislikeof Greg Land's style, and adore Alex Ross's style. And I very much see where Mark is coming from.
Not to mention that IMO the fanboy mentality has no place in the realm of charity items. In that medium, you aren't paying for goods, you're donating to charity and receiving something as a 'thank you'.
Not to mention that it's not like he sat there putting a Photoshop filter over some pictures.
As much as I like to make fun of Greg Land and his sexfaces, I think that mentality's starting to become the "cool" thing to kneejerk with.  Which sucks because as I said before, while I think Greg Land's approach sucks, I really love Alex Ross's stuff.
