FACE arrived safe and sound. Thanks Rick! It looks great.
Creature of chaos with long slender body, heavy tail, and clever hands. I am to water as a dragon is to fire. And I'm adorable.
Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
My piece arrived in safe conditions, although charged with 16 more Euros for custom duty.
Now to get a frame...

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
I hadn't considered customs charges and I presume it would be the same for the UK. I guess when factored into the price they're still worth it. Time to go raid the piggy bank!

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
Brilliant, there's loads more awesome sketches! Just acquired the 'Obligatory Reference' sketch
I've already picked out a prime viewing location, next to my signed XKCD, signed photo of Keanu Reeves (don't ask!), and a few others.
I smile every time I see the XKCD strip and now I can do the same with Housepets! Thank Rick

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
Absolutely amazing! I hope you make a mint on this, because it deserves every penny.
This brings up a question, though. Does this mean you do your rough sketches on paper, even to this day? That is actually really amazing to me!

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
No, the sketches were only for like an eight-month period; most of the comic has been all-digital. Now I do full-sized physical inking.
In fact I think Great Water Balloon War was the last one I did regular physical sketching for (besides a few exceptions). I converted to all-digital again before the end of the arc.

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
I've always been intrigued as to what software or devices people use to digitally draw and sketch on, especially what Rick uses! I do love to see physical sketches or inking, but I don't know why. I suppose it just seems to have more of a romantic feel to it.

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
Got one with Fox, yay! I missed the character sheet, but at least I got a decent consolation prize!
I am close enough to just hop in my car and go to Rick to get it myself!

I'm really excited, I just received my sketch in the post Rick packaged it up so well that not even Royal Mail could bend it!
I'm really pleased with it, and looking forward to getting it to its new home. Thanks Rick!

*addition to "list of things I'll do if I get a tardis"*
After successfully robing $100,000 from PETA, I shall teleport into ricks house the night after he puts the originals up for sale, take the character sheets for peanut, fox, and king to place on the wall of my recently acquired inter-demensional base and leave Rick griffon with 10 times the listed sale price, along with a additional $2,000. He needs a reward for making this comic.

I haven't been able to hang my sketch up yet as it didn't fit the frame . I'm taking it to the professional framers today to get it done as I don't want to cut it. My fault as I didn't check the size!

Well more accurately, I'd use my new powers to bring them to life then make them do battle in the worlds greatest diorama.

Re: Housepets Originals For Sale
Yeah, a typical comic averages seven hours' work. That's impacted by more or fewer panels, of course. Regular sketches vary, depending on complexity.
