I've found myself cartooning lately, so I thought I'd start sharing them here.

I'm a sucker for meet and greets with wrestlers that IWS (Montreal) puts together. At the last two I drew some pieces of art and got them signed. Here they are, pre-signing;

British Strong Style

Rob Van Dam

Absolute gentlemen, all four of them. Particularly RVD and Trent Seven. The rest may seem familiar, I've shared them in meme threads or have been my signature.

It was low-key, but Rybaxel had a Beavis and Butthead demeanour about them.

This one's for the parents or anyone who reads all-ages books (or in my case, just worked at a bookstore). Diary of a 1-2-3 Kid.

This would-be print was intended for sales with all net proceeds going to #SamiforSyria. Unfortunately, WWE-based fan art stores are getting pinched left and right. I don't want to work at a loss, so production has been cancelled. So if you like this cartoon, go ahead and download it, but please consider donating to Sami's worthy cause; app.mobilecause.com/vf/SAMIFORSYRIA

(Got the original signed, btw. Sami got involved in the off-Just for Laughs festival and had a chance to meet him. Super-gent.)

Can other people post stuff in here as well?

Also the posters I put on my online shop were taken down due to a cease and desist by WWE so I know that feeling

By all means, post away! I appreciate you asking.

Cheers dude.

I did this Seth Rollins one a few years ago.

Here's a few of the ones I've already shared but signed, along with my completely unaltered photo with the wrestler:

That Ciampa picture is amazing!

I'm really happy for you that he tweeted it out and used it as part of his character... very nicely done my friend.

Thanks man! Originally the Gargano puppet was going to be fighting an Aleister Black puppet, but that got abandoned when Black got hurt.

Blessed with good looks, a cartoonish hue, and a moustache that could not be contained by a lucha mask. He is Guerrero del Teclado, the Keyboard Warrior.

I love Speedball! I really miss him in PWG. Had no idea he and Veda Scott were currently a thing.

Hey everyone! Someone from the board reached out to me about making some art, so I was wondering if anyone else would like any specific drawings in my style. The one thing I want to bring up in advance is I'm a bit of a slow artist, more often than not bourne out of my own frustration and restarting. If time is not an obstacle for you (we're not talking months or anything absurd), we should continue this conversation! The holidays are coming, y'all!

For the first round of commissions, I will be accepting only 4 spots, charging $30 CAD per drawing. A drawing constitutes ONE wrestler or other person, anything else is to be negotiated. Payment will be accepted through Paypal. Payment schedule will be $10 up front, and the remainder upon completion. You will receive progress photos as I go, and upon completion and final payment, you will receive a high-resolution .PDF of the drawing. I'm happy to ship you a hard copy, but shipping and handling will be at your expense.

In regards to how I produce, I mostly work marker's on 8"x10" with digital touch-ups & detailing (like logos and stuff). You've seen my work in this thread, you can expect quality on par with the drawings of Sami Zayn and Tomasso Ciampa. You and I will discuss pose and style (Zayn's a little more cartoonish than Ciampa, for example) as we move forward.

Interested? Shoot me a DM named "Commission - (Wrestler Name)"

This one was commissioned by one of YOU on this forum. Go ahead and make guesses!

Haven't picked up my art book in awhile, but I've begun to dabble in digital. Put this together for Canada Day.
