Glasgow Comic Con


Dan’s too busy to write up his visit to the Glasgow con so I, in my role as Best Girlfriend Ever, am doing it for him.

It’s a fairly small con but the guest list was excellent – Rufus Dayglo, Alan Grant, Jon Haward, Grant Morrison, Frank Quitely, Jim Starlin, John Wagner, as well as various small press publishers. 


Dan before the crowds

Loads of people came for sketches and poor old Dan didn’t stop all day – 40 sketches by 3pm! Suffice to say, he was knackered by the end of it, but still a happy bunny. We sold out of sketchbooks and met some very nice people - including Twitterfriends Mark Toner and Colin Bell. Here are some of Dan's sketches from that day:



Godzilla


Cthulhu



Commissioner Gordon



Dan, Rufus and Jon


Braveheart

Drawing Matt Smith


Man-Thing in progress


The finished Man-Thing


Hellboy pencils


Robin and Superman


Drawing the Hulk


Magneto


Penguin


Love that Joker!


Cosplayers - Scottish Spider-Man with Storm



On a break outside the venue and another sketch for a nice man and his son. 


Request of the day goes to Colin Bell for asking for Dan’s own character- Sky-Knight (watch this space!) 



Captain America


Last sketch of the day – Spider-Man/Peter Parker 



Thanks to everyone who came along to chat and who bought a sketchbook. Also to Sha Nazir for organising the event and inviting us.
