...is it on drawing paper? Is it watercolour of coloured pencil/crayon/etc., is it framed or would you send it as a rolled up piece, is it an original, is it signed..?

its on Snowden Cartridge Acid Free Artist Paper, I used Caren-Dache water-based pencil's. its not framed but it is an original.
its not signed, found it hard to get Demps, Dickson and Davies around my house for a signing :dft012:

I would think this would fit very nicely in my man cave... What sort of offer are you looking for?
Just score 3+ goals a game and we will gain promotion...I promise

I'd agree with Fred. You could also sign on to there boards and and show your work off there. You could also consider adding a picture of a fan with their favorite player. Have to say considering you're copying it from a flat image you really have managed to get some shape into the bodies.

Oh you lucky people, we're the best team in the land!

Love your drawings and would definitely bid on an original or be happy to buy a print.

Wouldn't dare suggest a price but maybe you could work out costs of materials and then add on eBay fees and of course the time it takes to create these masterpieces.

VB, this has been my wallpaper on work computer since you posted on FulhamUSA last year or year before.

I'd go for a proper art auction, or trying to get an arrangement with a gallery rather than ebay.......which just seems to be a group of people who want something for (next to) nothing.

It's a very fine piece of work btw !

Me-ate-Live, innit??

V Billy .......give Dixon first refusal he should be good for a few big ones ...........
or Dixin's Lady might be a better option .............that would make a mighty fine Birthday present  for the man with more cars that you could shake a stick at ....... his birthday is 8th July
Excellent work as always  :045:

K Cat has got it right again. Players are always up for this kind of thing.
Hanging framed on the wall of a former player somewhere, is a poem I wrote about him which I did for nothing because his manager at the time is a friend of mine. Besides, it was an honour that a Fulham legend would want my work anyway.
As works of art go, I can tell you that Von Billy's effort has considerable more merit than my effort and I am sure that Mr Etuhu would be happy to shell out some big ones to capture a memento of his time at Fulham.
What we do for others will live on. What we do for ourselves will die with us

Agreed, it looks a fine piece of work.

Thought I'd leave it a couple of days to see what sort or response it would get....

um, plenty to think about.
 
Firstly, thanks for the interest and appraisal, its very much appreciated.
I really only wanted an impartial evaluation, to find out what Fofer's thought what it mite be worth. Then I could use that as a base price if anybody wanted one or even do a personal commission, obvoiusly Fulham fans would be my target audiance so who better to ask.
But I suppose nobody put in a valuation for the same reason's i didnt (I didnt want to put in something daft either way).
If anyone wants to give me a figure you could stick it in my personal message box. I promise not to make it public or comment on it.

Some interesting other ideas as well. I do find it hard to 'pimp my wares' on other people so I'l have to think about that one.
I dont mind if any Fofer likes to copy and turn it into a picture (its nice to know that my 'stuff' is out there in one shape or another)
But I mite get miffed if you started selling them.

anyways thanks again.

If you start selling could you not be done for copyright infringment as the photos in the book are covered by the books copyright, I am not a lawyer but just a thought before you go public.+

I suppose that could become a issue (everyone wants there two pennys)
I had a look WhiteNoise, it looks more like what you do then what I do, but I sent it in none the less
cheers

That is why before you go public, why don't you do some copies/prints for members on this forum for a donation of say £30 signed by you, 10 would net you £300
