Sam & Max Fans Are Good At Art and Stuff

Posted by Alan

All of this Sam & Max blowout sale talk (you know, from my blog yesterday) has got me with dogs and rabbits on the brain. While digging into Sam & Max’s realm on the boards I happened upon ‘The legendary Sam & Max fanart’ thread (I didn’t have to do too much digging, it’s stickied at the top), I must say, we have some extremely talented artists residing in the Telltale Games community.

The thread, now nearly a year old, is rich with Sam & Max work by artists at every skill level with one thing in common - they all love Sam & Max. I thought it’d be nice to showcase just a few of the pieces from the thread that stood out to me (there are so many it was tough to pick just a handful).

Without further ado, here are five of my favorite pieces from the thread, in no particular order at all. Some of these artists have a number of pieces in the thread, so I advise you to get a look at the thread for yourselves.

Do you have any favorites from the thread? Do you have any Sam & Max related art that hasn’t been showcased in the thread but you’ve seen elsewhere? Let me hear it in the thread.

	I've been meaning to post my new stuff on that thread, but I always lose my nerve when I see the great art and ideas being posted. I use to post freely back in 2008...

	@ Shodan The rest of us are thinking the same thing, but we're not saying it. Why? Because it makes us look selfish. However, we have a lot of good artists here.

	@StrongBrush1 If you look at my art in the thread, and then look at the last 2 characters of my post, and then look at my signature on the forums, I think you might have some better context to read my post in. :p

	I wanted to post a set of comics, but since some of the pages don't show Sam and Max, can I post the relevant comic pages where Sam and Max are present?
