| Greetings you lot 
As some of you may know I'm having a bit of a clear out (my studio mainly - I need more space!) - I found I was sent a duplicate set of the work I did for Giants of Legend.
I generally keep one copy for reference - but I don't need 2, so I thought I'd e-bay them or something.
They are all still in their bags.
Now the question is - if I were to sign them, where would you want the signature - would you want me to open the bags and sign the bottom or would you just like it on the card or both?
If on the card - would it be in a bit of free space or just over any rules and stuff?
Let me know, and I'll let you lot know when I post them on e-bay (I have no idea on the price? hint's welcome)
Cheers
VA

| Personally, if you were to sign them leaving them in the bags would be important, but then any bagged mini could go with the card. Is there any way to tell the miniature is actually an artist's copy, or does it look like a normal mini?
If it looks normal I would have you sign the bags. The art is the miniature, not the card. If there is a clear way of telling the artist copies then I would just sign the cards. | |

| | Didn't Salvatore, Weiss, and Ed Greenwood just sign the cards, or did they sign the mini too? | |

| | They look exactly the same as all the rest - the only way would be to sign the mini | |

| Best to sign the card, as that has your artist rendition of the mini on it. I doubt the mini has anything special on the base.
Now, which ones do you have... ? | |

| Well I get sent a copy of all the minis' I concepted - (they are the same minis as you would get in a pack)
In GoL it was 9 normal minis and 4 Huges
You'll have to go through your cards to find them, or wait till I stick them on e-bay | |

| Sign the card. Any bagged GoL mini could go with the card, it doesn't have to be YOUR GoL mini - as you just said they are identical to every other bagged GoL mini.
Sign the Skirmish side, since we don't need that side anyway  | |

| Sign the card. Sign in dead space if possible. The RPG side would be better for GOL figures, since that is the side with the artwork on it. I'd say signing the picture side would be best.
You've done some pretty good minis over the years, but I have no Idea what you could charge for them.
Though judging from some of the "Original Artist Repaints" I've seen over the years, it could be a bit. | |

Des always did the best concept art for Dragons and Orcs. It's too bad WotC decided to spread concept art chores around so much we rarely get to see his work anymore. | |

| Please post an ebay link when you have them ready.
Another option would be to ask the auction winner where they would like them signed. | |

| Hey Bert, thats a good idea!
I think I'll do that - I'll let you know when I post them, it'll probably be on Fri - I'll run a 10 day auction
Don't know on the title yet but it'll be something like D&D Mini GoL *name* Signed by artist
Anyway my ebay name is Venger4869 so look for that if you cant see it. - (the price will be in GBP) | |
