Description
I'm not sure how Tom came across my radar, and his Instagram showcases more of his digital chops than his traditional work, but when I saw that he was open for commissions ahead of #SDCC2024 I started to feel the insatiable hunger for some more G Bell.

Well, this feast for the eyes filled me right up! Check please!

I love the way this turned out. That shadow across the planet is a particular favorite moment. The subtle border breaks are also a great touch. Nobody puts Galan in the corner.

Tom was super easy to work with and boy did he deliver. He has a background in some very interesting character design and projects, some of which will hopefully bear fruit soon. Collectors like KG, T2, Dan T, and George H in particular may enjoy exploring some music related commissions from him. Either way, don't sleep on this rising star!

Galactus ready to palm the ball. Slam dunk piece!

That hand shadow is so ominous.

1. Stretch your hands.

2. Strengthen your grip.

3. Palm the Earth.

If to difficult. Start smaller. Perhaps try the moon and work your way up.

Great Image and I really like the hand casting the shadow on the Earth

That's really cool.  I imagine the view of that hand from the ground being very much like Independence Day, when the ships first started showing up and blocking the sun.

Really a beauty. Love that Surfer and his line making an S for Suarez. Wonderful!

Reaching out of the frame to this poor planet.  Nice depth, and love the shadow of the hand over the planet..  It's also like the Surfer is streaking a big "S" in the background!  And yeah, man, I'll have to look into Tom's work further.  Congrats!

I believe in dreamin'
Chewin' up the stars
Baby to be hunger one
You've Tom to raise the bar
Inkin' and a washin'
Drawin' out my best
Anything Velez
To claim the Surfer Galactus
Work his tail off every day
Gotta jump on commissions
Blow them all away
Yeah we're gonna
Bop, bop, bop
Bop to the art
Slip and slide and ride right with him
Jump for a spot ‘til art drop
And start again

Zip zap zop
Pop like my crotch
Scoot around like Surfer
Move it to the groove
‘Til the comic art
Do the bop bop, bop to the top
Don't ever stop
Bop to the art

nice piece, I like the definition in the Galactus face and helmet and the muted "black and white" but still mixing up the color tones enough that it sort of feels like a colored piece even though it isn't technically

Dribbling the earth like a basketball? THAT is the power of Galactus!

Relatively simple tone work, but extremely effective. Excellent addition to your Galacti!
