Well, I ordered both a color & B&W sketch. This August 2013 offer is a historic event IMO.

By any chance are you the new Topps artist, Dustin Graham? If so, is there any way I can order a PVC Animal sketch? A PVC Animal is a bootleg Rubber Ugly toy from the early 1970s. These creatures were made up from Random Ugly Stickers body parts and attributes. I would love to have a sketch card of the character in my avatar. I can take high res scans of the card art and take photos of the toy in question.

I have to adhere to the guidelines upon which I am given so I can only do the UGLY STICKER designs they have provided which are all viewable here-> entertainment.topps.com/media/pdf/UglyStickers.pdfalong side some newly added concepts to choose from!!

Thanks Dustin! You know, this news has come all of a sudden. I fear that Ugly Stickers collectors won't even know about this since it is only for the month of august 2013.
By any chance do you collect Rubber Uglies? Since you're now an official artist, probably a great time to start!
If I order a B&W #10 and give it the name Dustin*, will you at least give it some artistic freedom?

if you order one from me I will do my best to make it extra ugly!
you dont have to put DUSTIN as the name if you dont want to you can customize it in any way you would like (up to 15 characters I think) I will point out that these are official Topps cards you might think about getting a few to sell to the other collectors if you think they will miss out...
basically it has been revealed that Topps has not forgotten these crazy wonderful UGLY STICKERS!

Hey uglydustin - many thanks for the alert on this truly UGLY opportunity. I hope that those who get the any of these Artist On Demand Ugly commissions share them here on the forum. Particularly if they reproduce any of our favorite Ugly rubber monsters.

There's now some sketch examples up on the Topps website: Neil Camera: Brent Engstrom: Dustin Graham: Matthew Kirscht: Joe Simko: Fred Wheaton: There's no image up yet for Smokin' Joe, but I'll post it as soon as it becomes available. These are all great artists, can't really go wrong!
