Painting Sale Pimp (Don't Ban Me, I'm Lovely!)

[Jupitus]

I love the pics, I wish I could afford one, out of interest, how much was the mini?

*sings*

Nahnah na naaahh naaa!!! It is miiine and you can't have it!!!

 

[Arnie 2Tone]

It's true to say that you could create similar looking designs using photoshop, but it would look pretty flat compared to a painting in the same style. I could create paintings from the same designs with a classical style, but I don't know anyone with a spare grand laying around that they could use to pay for them. Besides, it's all art if someone likes it, isn't it?

 

[Arnie 2Tone]

Oh, and I can't remember what was paid for the mini off the top of my head. It's was definately more than 50 and less than 80 though...

 

[Jupitus]

£55 - worth more though... bargain!!! :england:

 

[Huntingtons]

I still love mine.

thats a really nice picture, <3

 

[yaruar]

i need to sort a picture of my ramones one sitting pride of place in my living room

 

[Utini]

I don't think Kenny swings that way Utini, you could always ask though, plus, only a pint, bah, cheapskate.

Lol fuzzy, I never did get the hang of the think before you speak thing, especially not at the end of a long day at work.

 

[Sockstuff]

thats a really nice picture, <3

Yes. Yes it is. I'd quite like another but I don't have the room for it. Maybe one of clown dressed as a ninja.

 

[Pirkel]

ok no offense

but those dont even look like paintings, they look like photoshop effects on a greyscale photo of whatever star/stars with a background added.

im not saying they aint good mind.

I thought the exact same yeah. Wonder if they are actually paintings or prints.

 

[Damini]

I can assure you, they are paintings. He's my brother, I've seen him paint them, I own one, heck, I've been out to buy him the acrylic paints before, and I know how much work goes into them. The fact that the scale is so perfectly matched to the people (one tiny bit out of proportion on someone's face makes a massive difference, and warps the image) is just testament to how well my brother does it.

[FuzzyLogic]

Some people are so horribly talented it's untrue, Dam's brother certainly looks to be one of them (Darn your genes, share the talent plix ).

Would have one meself if I could afford it (of Christina Scabbia *rubs legs Vic Reevees Stylee*). Maybe in a few months if the commissions are still going ^^.

We (myself and Vae) bought the Dalek one...supposedly for a friend who is a humongous Dr Who fan....it hasn't actually left our flat yet, though we're due to see said friend just after christmas so i might have to convince Mr Vae to part with it if i promise to buy him another one at a later date!
On the artwork side of things....these paintings really ARE fantastic...everyone who had been to our flat has commented on the dalek, even my dad who does not give praise easily, and my mum who doesn't 'do' sci fi....and yes Jup....my mum has walked throughout our entire flat and eaten at the table you slept under, so you must practically be married to her!

 

[Huntingtons]

wonder if its possible to get one of chuck norris? oh the joy! will find the piccie!

*rubs thighs in a Vic Reeves manner*

(Yes, Fuzzball, that is MY emote, you emotethief!!! )

Reminds me, hun, you need my address to send the youknowwhat - check pms!

 

[Arnie 2Tone]

I now have a myspace for my paintings if anyone's interested. The address is www.myspace.com/mattejblack

I would have used a clickable link but the button doesn't seem to be working for me...

If anyone is interested in commissions at the moment, let me know because I've finally cleared my backlog! As always, prices are negotiable (largely dependant on how close to having to eat from dustbins I am).

 

[Arnie 2Tone]

Turns out that freddyshouse automatically turns URL's into clickable links. I would have edited that part out of my previous post, but that button isn't working either...

Chap who commissioned the large-size mini is over the moon

 

[Arnie 2Tone]

Leatherface!!

Why do I paint stuff that probably won't sell when I run out of commissions?



Dig deep and save me from my own stoopidity...

 

[Will]

That might make a good Valentines present for Kirsty. Lets see if I can afford it...

Here you go sweetheart... I did red roses last year, so here is a portrait of a man wearing a mask crafted from the flayed flesh of innocent victims.

 

[Will]

She pwns, I know she'd prefer this to roses.

 

[mycenae]

why can i only see the myspace page in german? and therefore not access the gallery?

 

[TdC]

dunno about that mycenae. you're not being redirected to myspace.de or anything are you?

edit: sorry, the .de country code takes you to something that has nothing to do with myspace. possibly the site's servers are deciding you're german based on your netblock, though having said that they certainly aren't deciding I'm dutch though my connection is most assuredly coming from holland

 

[mycenae]

I'm accessing it through work, so hospital firewalls might be making it do funny things, but has never happened with anything else!

 

[TdC]

it's entirely possible that your firewall, or some other device on the network, can be doing any and everything to the packets passing through it. is it happening to just the painting site or any myspace site?

 

[Vae]

Latest example of Arnie's work - My early birthday present from the girlfriend (Mycenae on here). It's great

 

[Mobius]

Ohh, that's wicked.

 

[Tom]

Needs bits falling off.

Good though

 

[Arnie 2Tone]

My page is in german for you? What a surreal technical error... Glad you like the Serenity painting Vae. Nice to know I'm not the only sci-fi geek around these parts

By the by ladies and gents, I'm planning on doing a series of horror-themed paintings now, so if anybody has got any ideas of what would make good subject matter feel free to fire them at me

The bit in 28 days later when he shouts "HELLO?" in the church. And 2 zombies are looking at him.
