Those are very cool. I wonder how expensive they'll be once the auction's done.

One day left! Jeez, the price of the vol. 28 end pages illustration sure rose in the past couple days! :shock:
These are both very cool pieces. I hope whoever gets them enjoys them.

Just in case you didn't know Mike Mignola is having his annual Art sale Dec. 1st at 9AM PST on his website. His wife says peices sell super fast. If anyone is able to buy anything please post pics on the Dojo.

Best Wishes,

Thanks for the heads up! I hope someone here can get something. I'll definitely keep an eye on it, although I'm not sure if I'll try for any of the pieces. Maybe if there's an inexpensive sketch of the Lobster (and if my slow, clumsy typing skills don't betray me).

Thanks for the info Spam.

I'll likely not buy anything, as I'm currently trying to save money, but I'll keep an eye on it nevertheless.

Mike Mignola's art sale today was postponed because the website wasn't working (because of too much traffic). :(

Will now happen Dec 3rd at 9am PST. Works for for me, as I have the day off.

The site crashed again, and the sale is once more postponed (although no new date has been set).

Previews are up for what will be sold. Nothing I need that I can afford. Mignola offers sketches at conventions similar to the cheaper ones listed, so I can always wait until I see him again to pick one up at the same price instead of fighting the internets to try to get something.

Some nice pages... But I must be strong and save money.

I won't be trying to get anything either. There certainly are some cool pieces, but most are too expensive for me.
