Title: Free Custom Celtics Painting (Winner-RIPRED)
Post by: ScottHow on January 16, 2013, 02:31:50 PM
Hey everybody,

If you've seen the drawing for the uninspired thread ( http://forums.celticsblog.com/index.php?topic=33986.msg1375880#new ) I paint as a Hobby. I've gotten a little bored with it, so my plan is to change things up with a giveaway.

The plan:

-Get at least 10 Celticsblog posters to enter.
-Each poster chooses a current Celtics player they would want painted.
-A poster will be randomly selected.
-I will paint that posters chosen player on a canvas with acrylic paint.
-When I'm done I will send a picture of the painting to the poster.
-If the poster wants the painting I will mail it to whatever address they give me free of charge.

Comment and let me know if anyone is interested(with the current player). If not that's fine too. Go Celtics!

Throw me in on this. That's a great offer.

I'll go with Garnett as well.

Great deal. Pierce would look great in the empty wall spot in my bedroom.

Post by: moiso on January 17, 2013, 01:05:01 PM
Awesome!  I pick KG- he seems like the most photogenic and who knows if anyone will know Avery Bradley in 20 years.

Love your work Scott and this is very generous of you. I have seen you work with the old vets and Bird is my all time favorite so I would go with him. If you want it to be a current guy I'd have to chose Pierce.

That is mighty generous of you!

I'm in Australia, so, I am happy to pay for the P+H!

It was a toss-up between Pierce & KG, but, I need to go with the captain...Paul Pierce.

Thanks mate!

TP Scott, CBs resident artist ... would love a Pierce or KG.

Pretty awesome idea, then you should set up a web site and sell prints! :)

Ah ... omg my friend ... I've seen your artwork on your website. T.a.l.e.n.t.
It would be awesome to hang your canvas feat. AVERY BRADLEY on my wall.

If the offer still stands I humbly submit my name.
Oh and TP for getting me to post on CB again.v ;)

Last bump. I'll pick someone around the start of the game, and probably post it at the half.
Title: Re: Free Custom Celtics Painting
Post by: RIPRED on January 18, 2013, 04:39:36 PM
Wow, this is really cool. I just took a look at some of your work - impressive. TP.

Count me in for a Larry Legend painting if you're willing to do past players. If not, I would like to put myself down for the Captain, Paul Pierce.

Although, I must say a Scalabrine "hope" painting would be pretty cool...no, I'll stick with Larry (if you would do a past player) or Pierce (if you're only willing to do current players.

*crosses fingers*

Post by: AshyLarry on January 18, 2013, 05:05:06 PM
BRADLEY/ FABRICIO MELO PLEASE  :)

This is a great thing haha your paintings are sweeeet.
Title: Re: Free Custom Celtics Painting
Post by: RIPRED on January 18, 2013, 05:07:37 PM
Actually, the more that I think about it, I would absolutely love a Scalabrine "hope" painting. It was my favorite t-shirt for years until I wore it out (If you've never seen the design it's a knock-off of the Obama hope posters from his first campaign.).

However, I'd be open to any of Scal, Bird, or Pierce. Whatever you would rather do.

*crosses fingers & toes*

Post by: ImShakHeIsShaq on January 18, 2013, 05:10:26 PM
This is easy!

A KG and AB hybrid terminator type half and half hehe!!

But seriously, I'd like an ABeast painting... since I'm probably too late to get a free one, are you selling any?

Very generous and cool idea.  I love your work and would like to throw my name in the hat too.  We have a dog named Rondo so we would love to have a painting of the man.  TP as well for your brilliant idea!

If there's still spots open for the sign-up, I'd love this baby immortalized:

You would probably only do Pierce and Lebron though. The crowd is a lot of detail.

I just received the Paul Pierce painting last Saturday, and it is a beauty. To top it off, @ScottHow threw in a sweet Garnett painting as well. I've posted photos of the paintings on flickr, you can check them out here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/70152465@N03/sets/72157633843065076/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/70152465@N03/sets/72157633843065076/). Huge thanks, and a lifetime supply of Tommy Points, to Scott.
