FireFoxx80

The great FireFoxx80, for one week only, shall be recreating a likeness of your destruction (or indeed any other memorable event) in watercolour.
Marvel at my skills with a paintbrush, as I have fabricated an almost indistinguisable likeness to this screenshot: Original - Watercolour
Want something more personal? How about an accurate recreation of your lovely: Original - Watercolour
Now, these will be one-of-a-kind paintings, no two will be the same. Thus the cost of such creations is equally unique, not 10m ISK, not 100m ISK, but yours for 2m ISK! That is a small price to pay for such an excellent rendition of your wanting.
Eve-Mail me in-game if you wish to own one of these masterpieces.

O_o.
EDIT: Drat, Anister beat me to it.
EDIT 2: If you use filters, at least make it look good. Nobody wants a watercolor that looks far worse than the original.

Filter? no-sir-ee I only use the finest of watercolours and canvases to create these masterpieces. Each is then photographed using a high-resolution digital camera, and compressed to a reasonable size.
The original will safely be stored in my workshop. Obviously you may request your original, but the cost of safely posting such an item would be monumental. I would imagine in the region of USD$20,000.

Then do one in a completely different resolution and format than any of the existing pics (640x480 is NOT reasonable for an original you get paid for), perhaps add detail on your own and show me a picture taken of the watercolor with part of the canvas and desk still visible on the pic.
THEN I'm going to believe you.

Originally by: Joshua Foiritain WTS: Sarcasm Detector... 
Now that I think about it, I probably need one. How much is it?
IMHO you can't really tell if someone is serious or not in cases like this one. Especially when you tend to visit art forums, where a lot of artist wannabes run around showing people their filtered pics and telling everyone how great these are.
Those people are usually serious. >_>.
Neways, I've rarely seen an artist who thinks of his own art as 'great', or 'good'. People who see their own art positively are rare enough. And those are usually newbies or absolute pros.
Neways a 2m price for a watercolor is rediculous. Anything below 100m cries to be a fake. People either do it for free, or ask for amounts of money that at least fot the time that creating the pics comsume.

The thing that amuses me is not only are they obvious fakes to anyone with a smidgen of knowledge, but they look like boiled arse compared to a real watercolor, and the ones he tried to pass as canvas(The ones with the crap texture pasted in) look even worse.
Impressive that he maintained his scam despite not a single interested party and 100% ridicule.

Well, to be honest, I was quite bored at work and the 30-second scam entered my head. (Hey, if it worked I'd be a millionaire) But obviously, I was shot down withing two minutes of posting.
FYI: 'Watercolour' filter in Photoshop. Although one of the later images has a lens-flare on it. It's surprising how varied the results you get with it are though.

Hah! 
I acually did these four back in June '04. Basic 5-10 minute sketches I did from the ingame 128x128 pics, for a website project for a couple of corpmates (the ones I sketched), called EFOBSÖ, a project which was later scrapped. Anyway, the four I did were of, in A-Z order, Aikanaro, Anquilas, Celeb'loki and Nuruhuine, of which only dear friend Celeb remains in Eve to this day.
