Description So, this is a camera phone picture of my fave commission I did at MegaCon this year. With 2 1/2/ hours left in the show, I got a commission request for Flash's (considerably large) Rogues Gallery sitting around a card table playing poker on an 11x17 board, inked.

That's a TON of work to do in that short amount of time (any other time would have taken about 8 hours). But, 2:20 later - with 13 figures/heads to draw (and a TON of reference for the costumes), I produced this! Viola!

I'm massively proud of what I got done in that short amount of time. Had I an entire day, it would have been better, but I was in the zone for what I did. It was a Sunday miracle. And the guy loved it/freaked out over it. So, major bonus!

This is beautiful and amazing and has turned me into an incoherent keysmashing fool, so job well done! I've just recently discovered the Rogues, courtesy of a stranger quite literally shoving Rogues War into my hands at Free Comic Book Day because I offhandedly mentioned liking Captain Cold... But now I'm hooked on them. XD This just... Wow, it captures all their personalities so well! GAH. You probably don't check comments for this anymore, but on the off chance that you do, WELL DONE. You have a fan. :>

Goodness. In two hours and twenty minutes? At a con? Wow This is magnificent!! I'm so jealous There is so much going on in that scene, so many details to catch on - I guess it is true that a picture is worth a hundred words

Thanks! And, yes, all those facts were true. We'll just say I was "in the zone."

Amazing. I love seeing the Flash and the Rogues, especially when they aren't fighting [though I'm sure that will change in a couple of hands. :3 ].

Ha! Thanks! Yeah, it's a fun group of rogues to draw. DC definitely wins the Rogues Gallery contest just with Batman and Flash, alone.

I got to admit, I think the Flash's Rogues gallery is the best out of Marvel AND DC. They've got character, they've got chutzpah, they...

I don't know, they're just likable 'bad guys'...

...except when they're written super-angsted up and I think I'm in Gotham again...

I miss back when they were semi-friends with Wally. Those days will be missed.

Holy crud, you did this as a CON SKETCH? Yikes! These are my boys, I can draw them all by heart, and I still don't think I could've pulled out anything even half this good. Especially just in a couple of hours. Kudos, sir. It's an absolutely perfect piece that captures the Rogues better than Flash himself could have. I especially love Axel's stupid not-all-that-innocent smile and the cards behind his back. Gorgeous.

I'm more than a little jealous of the recipient of such a piece.

Ha! Thank you sir. It was a Sunday Afternoon Con Miracle that came together. Glad you liked it. They did too, luckily.

Hey! This is the dude who commisioned you for my friend! He freaked out when he finally saw it in person. He immediately framed it and hung it and has been raving about it since! Still beyond impressed that you got that done so fast and so insanely well! If you want a pic of it from my camera, email me at ehutzel@knights.ucf.edu.

BTW: It totally blew my mind at how well it turned out! Great Job!

I'm SO happy he liked it! It was one of my fave commissions of the con. I'll e-mail you to get the pic shortly - that's really cool.

To everyone else out there: THIS GUY FREAKING ROCKS!!!! He did this in less than 2 and a half hours and it came out incredible. It's just amazing!

I have to admit that when you told me what you were attempting to do, I was a non-believer! But you did perform the art miracle, and with great skill and execution. This made me think that you were scary talented. Great stuff, Phil! It was a blast to share a table with you.

Ha! Thanks dude. I couldn't have done it without you and Lee. We had some great energy going there that was really fun to feed off of.

Miracle! Well, if it was me, HELL YES! It would have been declared a miracle, and I would have become Saint Jen right then and there!! LOL! I'm STILL playing with the pose for that damned Polaris card!!! LOL! Well, had quite a bit of distraction with unpacking and all as well.

But that piece turned out really cool!! Awesome concept and design on it!! How you managed to get all of them in there, I don't know. I know I couldn't have done it. LOL!

Thanks! You guys were a blast too!!
