- 2017: Commissioned at FanimeCon.
- 2016: Commissioned at Anime Expo.
James Ghio
James Ghio is an artist I discovered through Instagram, especially his Asuka and Eva-02 print. Both pieces were commissioned at FanimeCon in successive years.
- This sketch is based on one of the promo photos for Alter's Jersey Ver. figure
- A sticker included with the Tokyo-3 Old Hakone Road cake packaging was used as a reference.
Sho Murase
Sho Murase has done a variety of pop culture based artwork, most notably Nancy Drew and Disney. Both pieces were obtained at Japan Expo USA 2nd Impact in 2014 when Murase did sketch requests.
- A fan art reference was used as a reference for this piece, so the sketch didn't turn out as close to Asuka as I expected.
- A page from the 3.0 movie pamphlet showing Asuka's various expressions was used as a reference for this piece.
Long Vo
Long Vo is a comic and video game illustrator known for his Street Fighter work. He only does commissions at conventions. The first two pieces were obtained at the 2013 Capcom Cup.
- Test Type Plugsuit: The caption mistakenly identifies this as from 3.0.
- Nekomimi hat and track jacket
- Half Face: Vo was a guest at Illusive Comics & Games for Free Comic Book Day 2015 and did a limited number of sketches.
- Uniform: This was done at PAX Prime 2015.
Misc. Artists
- Ryusuke Hamamoto (2011): Hamamoto is the illustrator for Petit Eva. Obtained at FanimeCon 2011.
- Yuko-Rann (2013): A fan art by Yuko-Rann based on a shirt of Asuka sporting a Yomiuri Giants jersey as part of an Eva x Nippon Professional Baseball crossover. There is also a Rei design. What I like about this rendition is that Asuka is smiling more and it conveys more sense of movement than what I get from the shirt.
- Tu Bui (2014): Commissioned at Big Wow Comicfest 2014 and based on one of the character illustrations in the 3.0 movie pamphlet.
- Takami Akai (2014): Obtained at FanimeCon and based on a promo image for Eva x K-Swiss shoes.
- Felipe Smith (2014): Obtained at Japan Expo USA 2nd Impact. Surprisingly this was Smith's first Eva sketch.
- Lowah (2014): Commissioned at Japan Expo USA 2nd Impact. Lowah is the artist of the EVA 2.22 Recline print.

- Hiroyasu Kobayashi (2017): Obtained at FanimeCon
- Tensai Okamura (2017): Obtained at Anime Expo
- Artgerm (2017): This was a consolation of sorts after I purchased the Asuka sketch that Artgerm did for Inktober, but it turned out that another buyer beat me to it even though I had paid for it. I was refunded and asked if I would like to obtain a replacement. Of course I said yes and made my request more specific. As great as the initial sketch is, I think this one turned out better.
