RYAN OTTLEY

I've been putting together a list of styles and comic book artists that I like. Somewhere along the way I decided that I'd check with one of them for some commissions or something. What have I got to lose?

Here's what I wrote Invincible penciler, Ryan Ottley:

Wya,
Any chance you do commission pin-ups or concept art? You gotta be insanely busy, but I figured I'd ask.

Keep up all the awesome work - and thanks for posting it on DW.

It was a long shot. I knew this. But, he actually wrote me back:

JL,
Sorry man, right now I am too busy to even check my e-mails. Oops. Ok, so I ALWAYS find time to check e-mails. But the rest of the time doing a monthly is just all I can handle. Good luck with what you got goin. Later man.

How rad is it that he even took the time to write back? I see him posting, and offering advice on Digital Webbing to the other newbs. Not only is he extremely talented, but he's a nice guy.
