I just found a mind-blowing forum page over on the ComicArtCommunity chat boards. Look in the "Commission Reports" threads - basically people post about art pieces they've commissioned from various artists (Like Frank Brunner, Al Rio, Bob McLeod, Bob Layton, Kerry Gammil, and many, many others!). They talk about how well the whole process went (good, bad, etc.) and sometimes how long - and some of them post links to scans of the final peices. THey've even got a little thread with people's "Most Wanted" artists (meaning, people you'd love to get a commission from "some day").
Now, I know wha'cher thinkin: "This guy must be a shill for some of those guys..." - but I'm honestly not! I just love art and thought you all might be as blown away by some of that stuff as I am!
Anyway - check it out - the "Commission Report" over on:
