Sketch Cards That Are Just Simple Sketches

Pop Mhan is a very talented artist who has worked for the top companies in the graphic novel world. Dark Horse Comics, Marvel and DC and his work is among the best that I have seen so when I came across his sketch cards form the 2004 Topps Star Wars Clone Wars release I was utterly surprised at the rudimentary sketches he did for the set.

 

He has two subjects that he did sketches of for the release, Yoda and the Emperor. I found a number of auctions for his Yoda cards and you can see how simple these cards are and the limited changes. I would be bummed pulling one of these cards. His Emperor cards are similar with just basic line changes from card to card.

Now compare that work with a Wolverine sketch card he did for the 2007 Upper Deck Marvel Masterpieces release. You have to wonder if he was limited on a time constraint or something else that would have him doing very basic cards for one set when he obviously has an amazing talent.
