Production Art

For those of you who want to find something inexpensive in the live auction, you need look no further than the 90 or so lots production art. We realize that many of the people can’t afford to walk away with an Arrow of Apollo, or the Iconic Six Red Dress, or even a Raptor, so the economical choice from this auction is going to be—in our own opinion, of course—the production art. A majority of lots consist of multiple pages of production art, such as the obsolete set drawings over four seasons, or the Colonial pistols.

Many of these are beautiful pieces in their own right, with intricate detailing by production artists such as Ken Rabehl (the artist who did the very sought after “Cylon War” painting in Adama’s Quarters) and original pieces that will likely never be seen again. Or wouldn’t have been seen at all, were there not an auction!

One good suggestion we have is that a group of friends can pool their money to buy a lot, and share the sketches between themselves (or divide them up accordingly.) Then they can have someone who is the designated bidder who will bid on the lot.

If you’re not going to be at the auction, and can’t see the actual art in person in Pasadena, we have made it extremely easy for you to peruse our selection of production art. Simply go to Auction Network’s website, sign up (you’ll need a valid credit card) and get together with your friends (or BSG loving family) and see what you can do to snag a piece of Battlestar history.
