NBC TV Heroes CLAIRE BENNET Hayden Panettiere THE CHEERLEADER by David Nakayama

This piece is probably one of my favorite, if not "THE FAVORITE" piece I picked up at the 2008 San Diego Comic Con. It's possibly my "Best in Show" because David Nakayama is a great fan friendly artist who puts a lot of heart and effort in his work. (contending with this piece is the Josh Howard "Lost Books of Eve" piece I picked up and the Joe Chiodo sketch) At the SDCC, he asked me what I wanted, and knowing how brilliant his work is and how he uses colors, I requested CLAIRE from HEROES and then on Saturday, 07/26/08 he produced this masterpiece for me. It's a full figure with background and is of cover quality detailing. It's so colorful and is awesome to behold. If you ever encounter David Nakayama at a convention, he usually has a selection of beautiful color prints and artwork as well as taking commissions for fans to take home custom created original artwork like this! He has a website www.davidnakayama.com and a Deviant Art page as well if you wanted to check out his work.
