Thanks, I'm glad you like it! Now I'm working on an art project dedicated to our Clippers' bench of reserves (another installment of "Bench On A Quest").
I wanna use accessories to help differentiate/identify each player. So far I've completed 4 characters -- CP3, DJ, Jamal and Luc:

I'm gonna need whatever more details you guys can feed me, especially about these guys listed below:

- Wesley JOHNSON #33

- Mo SPEIGHTS #5

- Brandon BASS (does anyone know what number will he wear on his jersey?)

- Brice JOHNSON #10

- Raymond FELTON #2

- Alan ANDERSON #9

- Diamond STONE #0

The more details -- the better. Also, highly-detailed sneakers are very important part of this project. I may need reference photos.

Thanks, man!
And I appreciate your feedback on DJ and CP3. Actually, they are not in the artwork as part of the bench. They are more like making a "cameo appearance". :wink:

Very nice... I laughed a bit at Wesley throwing up the dub!
And I miss Teodosic. He was always hurt, and way past his prime, but even in his old age, I thought he would've had a big impact when our offense disappeared.

I'd appreciate your thoughts on the latest Bench Ona QUEST artwork:

Nice work as usual. Just in time for Halloween too! Very realistic body postures. Though Trezz looks a bit out of place with a Bane mask while everyone else has a Jason mask.

Thank you, brother. I appreciate the feedback. A lot of hard work was put into that illustration. There was a change in the leaves shade, which one looks better in your opinion?

Since the drawing seems like it's during the night, I think the original darker shade fits more. Almost like they came out of some bushes. The lighter shade seems a bit too bright to be at night. Or maybe a shade in between the two could work.

Here's an update! Can you spot all the differences between this latest version and the previous one? :reporter:

Hoping for a miraculous series turnaround, even though our odds are very slim.
On a side note, here's a fresh artwork for faith:

Read on Twitter

So much going on:

- the HollyHOOD sign,
- Pat Bev's eyepatch,
- Terance Mann,
- Kawhi in the boat,
- Rondo in the water,
- Serge Ibaka,
- Chuck the Condor,
- but the spirit of Lou Will is the absolute best, in my opinion!!! What do you guys think?

BTW, you can see a High-Quality version of the FULL artwork at: https://BenchOnaQUEST.com
This has been a 3-month labor of love: sparked by the inspired minds of me, and several other artists. A whole LOT of effort was put into this artwork.. It'd be awesome if you could RT on Twitter, so more die-hard fans can see it.
Thanks, everyone!! Stay safe and Go Clippers!! :basketball:

Best Regards
Tony, Founder of the BechOnaQUEST.com movement

P.S.
This project would not have been possible without the heroic efforts of Dilom.
