Description

A fellow CAF collector asked the other day....

Hi Andrew, Curious as to whether Sienkiewicz ever came through for you with your commission? All the best, N

Hi N,
No he never did come through - he doesn't answer emails so I have to bug him at comic cons. Because I don't go to many now it's hit or miss these days. And I have heard every excuse - left at home, left at hotel etc. - will be in the mail next week. I've had problems with more than one artist so I don't do commissions anymore. Nothing you can do when an artist has your cash.
Thanks for reaching out. You have a great gallery.
Cheers, Andrew

I love the guys artwork but it's the reason I don't set up commissions anymore.

If interested you can read the other two postings I made at the 3 and 5 year marks. My last will be the 10 year anniversary!

Big Apple Con, NY - Jan 19/20, 2007 - "... Elektra, two swords, wind blowing through her hair, fighting pose." $500 cash full figure ink.

Final Update:
No sense flogging a dead horse - always get a receipt, if the deal goes bad at least you have something better than a smile and a hand shake to claim against. I guess the guy just sees fans as dollar signs.

I'm liking and commenting to help get this more attention. I hate hearing stories like this one. Good luck in finally getting your commission.
