So I wanted to put something sweet on the wall for my kid on the way.  I never really messed with murals before, but I did some graffiti when I was younger so I figured what the heck right?  Came out pretty good, at least we're happy and hopefully junior will dig it when hes old enough to watch ball with his old man.

For the art geeks its all liquitex standard and basic acrylics and sharpie paint markers for the edges, took 45 hours from prep to finish.


This is the whole deal:



This is a closer shot of the robot:



And then here I am so you can see the scale, im 5'11".

Hope you guys dig it.  I don't know why Jeff Green, I guess I have been really digging his game lately and then there is the whole Iron Man connection.  Making the slime monster Lakers colors was my wife's idea.  Giving him Chris Bosh's number to make him the ultimate villain was the last touch.

I have no idea what to do if the ultrasound was wrong... bows?

At first read, I thought you said 45 minutes, then I was admiring how awesome of a job you did and was thinking, wow 45 minutes, this guy is amazing, especially for just doing graffiti when he was younger.

Oh wait, 45 hours.

Still amazing though.

Really awesome.

I hope Employee #8 is more accurate with his laser beams than he is his 3 pointers. ;)

(Sorry, but #8 will always be Antoine, no matter what usurper tries to steal his number and his mediocre outside shooting.)

I laughed pretty hard at the last comment because i just pictured the robot doing the wiggle.  Glad you guys like it, it was so much fun and I get to share my love of celtics ball with my son like my dad did, just in a different way. 

My Dad parked my butt in front of the TV in 86 and just broke down game after game giving my 6 year old brain a lesson in what celtics ball is all about.

Awesome TP.  You can't really on those ulta sounds though, they lied to us and said we were definitely having a boy and then...girl.

My thoughts exactly!  JEff Green didn't even cross my mind until I read the entire OP.

Nice work on the mural!
Yup
