Description
This sketch was kind of a running joke between Clayton and as we dubbed it the "Four Year Sketch" as he first began back in 2007 but finished it in 2010. The reason being is we both live fairly close to each other, he is a really great guy, and an amazing artist. At conventions he would be at, and I would have my business set up at, I would drop my sketch book off if he had time, if he didn't, I would tell him no big deal, and he would respond by saying he would work on it each time he could. We would always get a laugh out of it and I would tell him to work on it only when he could. In 2010 he finished it after finally offering to take it home with him and complete. It's an amazing piece in person to see, I was more than pleased.

Thanks for the kind words, yeah Clayton is a great guy. I wish my scanner would bring out the detail in some of the sketches I have posted up here like this, but can't seem to make it look any better.

Four years is definitely not too long to wait for this. Splendid piece.

It became a running joke between Clayton and I, we live fairly close so he would appear at a few more conventions here than say if he hadn't lived in the area, so I would just have him work on it when he had time, there was never any rush. Clayton is an incredibly nice guy in-person too.

I've never heard of Clayton Crain before. Where in the world have I been?? The shading is remarkable - the crow above Eric is to die for!! The entire piece is stunning but that crow takes my breath away.
