San Diego Comic-Con 2021 may not be happening (physically, at least), but artist commissions are! Many artists rely on conventions like SDCC for the bulk of their income, and you probably have some extra money now to spend on that amazing piece of original art for Comic-Con@Home.
We’ve compiled a list of SDCC artists who have opened their commissions. This list will continue to change as we hear from more artists, so if you don’t see your favorite artist listed, keep checking back. Also, if you are an artist who would like to be added, please e-mail us at sdcomiccon.blog@gmail.com.
