    at least they were done freehand and not stenciled on from other pictures though.
    But I never said I was an artist.. I said he sucks as an artist. You don't need to be something to critique it.

      I think he is a very good artist and I also think if you want to be critical of somthing you should really be able to do it yourself unless of course its somthing you are paying for......
      Anyway you certainly have talent yourself so I'll let you off

        Slone's work isn't computer generated or stenciled. He has displayed live painting at the International Boxing Hall of Fame, starting with blank canvas until the finished painting. It's a compliment of the highest degree to think it's photoshop'd or stenciled. Bottom line is it's only art, it's not that serious too 'hate on'.

          You cant knock a persons technique.
          No the technique is not gimicy , the art is ,,, the technique has been used for centuries starting with the camera obscura ,,, these paintings style meaning super saturated colors that are within skintones painted to the right values are done all over the web by many people , its just that this guy has the name and the contacts ,,,, not saying they are bad as no art is bad , just saying how they are done and that they are not hard to do .

          Just to show Im not talking out my ass as Im an artist myself ,

            Impressive man!, I was wondering who the second guy was. Then I saw it it's Mundine. I thought why the **** would anyone go through so much bother to paint Luis Collazo.

              Just out of interest, why has Hatton got a WBC belt around his neck?

                    It was actually a mistake as I for some reason thought when he beat Castillo that it was for a wbc belt and I just painted it without thinking or checking , maybe when he is finished he will get one and it all fits

                    Thanks Sparked , yep its Mundine ,,, I like painting portraits so I wouldnt mind painting Luis anyway , lots of non famous heads are interesting to paint , like this guy is my next door neighbour .
