. . .to my favorite faces on our local NBA team. I wanted to spend more time refining the likenesses, but I decided I'd better finish it quick since the Jazz aren't looking so great against the Lakers right now. The players depicted here are (left to right) Carlos Boozer, Mehmet Okur, Andrei Kirilenko, and Deron Williams. I thought Deron's likeness would be easier to capture because he looks like a baby monkey, but he ended up being the hardest one---I'm still not happy with how he turned out.
awesome sam. gotta love the Booze Brows.
ReplyDeleteNot the most handsome bunch, are they. No wonder they felt the need to get Korver.
ReplyDeleteFantastic stylization of 'em! Especially that Okur fellow.
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I am liking the Mehmet Okur.
ReplyDeleteSam, this picture is awesome! Did you use acrylics?
ReplyDeleteFunny, and nice color, my favorite is the second from the left . . .
ReplyDeletethose are awesome! You should send that in to the team some how...They all read really well. Great job
ReplyDeleteNow they are looking a bit better against the Lakers (must be your art which inspired them).
ReplyDeletestalking your arts :D. awesome
ReplyDeleteOh god, wonderful characters!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome, Sam!
ReplyDeleteI love these, Sam. Kirilenko's chin is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteDon't know who they are but they look awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for the comments!
ReplyDeleteExcellent likeness. Unfortunately they're out now.
ReplyDeleteNice job on these guys! Too bad they didn't beat L.A. Go Celtics!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love it. I think you nailed Deron perfectly (although Jerry Sloan is just begging to be caricatured!). Keep up the inspiring work.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSWEET. That Carlos Boozer is hilarious!
