James Jean Fables original artwork

This has got to be one of the best, if not the best Fables cover to hit eBay. Original painted cover artwork to the Fables TPB "Arabian Nights (and Days)" by James Jean.

Currently at $5.5k, this one may skyrocket before it's over in a few more days. James Jean artwork has been on the rise, esp with his transition to Fine Artwork from Illustration. His work has been very well received so far, and many speculate his work will only get better with time. Maybe that means you should buy some of his artwork now, before he really hits it big and you only see his stuff in museums around the world.

I'm Baaack. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles premieres on Fox this Sunday Jan 13 8/7C and Monday Jan 14 9/8C.

Anyone remember Alex Ross' work on that early Terminator Burning Earth (Now Comics) book from 1990? Here are some of his painted covers as shown on alexrossart.com. Brings back a lot of memories when that book hit the shelf and especially since the movie was still cult cool back then, and got people thinking about Terminator again. Alex Ross was just starting out then and hadn't completely perfected his painted realistic people look yet. You could see the differences from now and then. He has some extremely detailed painted pieces. I can't think of any other painters that can paint with as much realism. Mike Mayhew is also a very good realism painter, esp his work on Vampirella turned a lot of heads. Ross and Mayhew artwork looks even better up close and in person. The details just drip off the page.

Speaking of turning heads... pictured here is stunning actress Summer Glau who plays Cameron Phillips, in the new Terminator series. I can't wait to check out the premiere.
