Classic comic cover recreation paintings

Looking great. Spidey is stunning. THAT'S Spider-Man. Love the yellow rim lighting.

I'm telling you, you could sell this as a Romita piece. I don't think you should, but you COULD.

Can't wait to see the finished piece.

Thanks again for the compliment...it will be signed Pinkney after Romita, since it is based off his pencils. I had the next cover all picked out, but suddenly I'm getting the urge to paint Doc Ock...

This is just great!! Thanks very much for sharing this process.

Look great so far and yes, it IS the spitting image of a Romita painted piece! Well done!!

I couldn't help but chuckle when you mentioned how much of a pain in the butt the weblines are! Just think if how many times Ditko, Romita and the plethora of other artists and inkers probably thought the same thing! As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure, if memory serves, that that's why the Spider-Man in the '67 cartoon didn't have weblines all over, simply due to the fact that they were time consuming as hell!

Anyway, I can't WAIT to see this piece finished (are you gonna sell color copies to board members, by any chance) and see what your next piece is gonna be!!!

Absolutely fantastic. I'm also going to throw out there that highlights and shadows of the painting reminds me a bit of N.C. Wyeth, too.

Fantastic job so far cant wait to see it when finished.

This is shaping up to be a stunner!!! The colors are vibrant and powerful! Makes me want to re-read the issue! In fact, I think I will.

That is seriously awesome, even more so that it's paints. I used to have some artistic ability as a kid but could never get the hang of painting. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Sadly guys, you won't get to see it finished. It was stolen before I could complete it.
