Got these over the Black Friday sales and have finally managed to get them scanned. Pretty happy overall with the artists:
Chris Meeks (really like his sketches, plus needed one of his); Layron; Matt Hebb
John Soukup; Emily Riggsby (one of my favourite artists); Gary Shipman
The Soukup is painted and had "Grant Wood" listed on the back also. I am not much of an art buff, so did some research and turns out Grant is a famous American artist with his painting "American Gothic" one of the most well known :
Nicely done! Haven't opened the product myself, but all the sketches in this release all seem to be of a really good standard, some of the other companies could learn from that...
yea those sketches are really nice, im with @AusRam , just about all of the sketches I've seen from this series are really good. Unfortunately I dont know anything about the actual show/series so that makes it difficult. I really wish they would do some more The Simpsons cards....
I only know the show from watching it with my now 13-year old son. He loves the show, so I thought this would be a great set to have fun with putting together with him. It also helps as mentioned that 99% of the sketches in this set are great quality. From responses I have seen from artists, they all seemed to love doing sketches from this set as it was something different from the majority of the other sketch work they do.

Highly recommend Tim Proctor if you're after commissioned Simpsons sketches - good price too ($20-25 US + $10 shipping for any amount of cards). But it's been about 10 years since there's been any Simpsons cards now.

I only got 6 boxes of this last year - but picked up two of the best sketch cards I've pulled from packs. Love this set - funny it was released by Crypto at the exact same time as Archer - and the sketches for this set were 100x better
