Description
Meeting and hopefully getting a commission from Clayton Crain was one of the primary reasons I made it to Dallas Fan Days this year. I’ve always liked his cover and interior work but there are no originals available as he does his work digitally. But, I have seen some great commissioned paintings on CAF and hoped to nab one for myself…success!

I picked Puma because I’ve always liked the character, and Clayton did some great work featuring him in Sensational Spider-Man #26, part of an arc titled “Feral”. He also did the cover to issue 27, one of my favorite published Crain pieces (I’ve included a pic). I also know Puma’s not requested very much so thought Clayton would get a kick out of doing something a little different…and I was right. Lastly, the character’s colors and the fact that he’s covered in fur I thought would lend to Clayton doing some neat texturing with the paints. Right again! It came out great – love the pose, the grimace, and how you can see the paint strokes…really nice. Thanks, Clayton!

Great idea for a commission. I'm glad you were there to watch him paint. His attention to detail and technique can be missed if all you see is a scan or picture. You really appreciate how hard he works when you watch him paint.

I agree, Steve. I wasn't there the entire time, but did watch him do a lot of this. It was very cool seeing the colors come into forming the character. Thanks, all, for the comments!

Great looking piece and a unique character choice! It's always a kick to hae a artist do a lesser known character- or one outside their usual request list. I think it's more fun for them too and often leads to spectacular results.

Totally agree, Jason! And at the time I think Clayton agreed, too. He definitely seemed excited to give this a stab. Last time he tackled Puma was during the Feral arc! Thanks for the comment!

I remember really liking this character's look when I was growing up and reading Spider-man comics.  Great piece!
