Default T206 Wagner...in pencil

Hey guys,
This is my first post on the new board!
Besides grading vintage cards, I also do a little drawing.
If any of you guys dabble in "new, shiny stuff" you probably know at least a little about sketch cards.
Sketch cards are simply trading cards where an artist creates an original work of art on the card. Think of these as the next step in the autograph and jersey swatch card. Now when you open the shiny stuff, you can pull a unique and original piece of art!
So, the baseball-related sketches I've done have all been in pen or pencil. I decided to try out some color work last night and created a Wagner. I thought some of you may enjoy seeing it. Hopefully I can get the hang of color work in future cards.
Andy

Andy - that looks great!

It must be very cool to have a talent like that.

I'd put it on Ebay and say you found it in your grand parents attic and see what happens.

Andy,
Your drawing is outstaning thanks for sharing! It wasn't stated in your post, have you done sketch cards before, that were inserted in packs, or did they just motivate you to sketch players? Is the wagner the size of a modern day card?
Thanks
George
