"Quinton Rampage Jackson" by slimpickens78
Mixed Martial Artwork is gonna be the first of several features on MMA artwork from some very talented artists from all over the globe. Be sure to follow the link to see the full size image.
If you have a deviantart account, be sure to give him your thoughts and compliments, if not, just post it in the comments section. I'm sure he'll be reading them to view the full size image, follow the link to the actual deviation page then click the photo.

is there any way to override that 75 word rule?
its been done for those snapshot of the day posts, and i had to fill in the post by adding the 1st and 3rd line of the notes section.. its supposed to be the 2nd line originally haha.
Main page posts (like "Snapshot of the Day") don’t have the 75-word minimum, just FanPosts, presumably to encourage stuff like this to be put in FanShots. :)

Well maybe if some one added “this fanpost has been promoted to the frontpage by…” I wouldn’t have to write as much words! haha… But seriously though, I think this is a great concept because it will be beneficial to both BE and the artists involved.. I’m serious, there’s a lot of talent out there! …alright I’m really going to bed, I just needed one last BE fix so I logged in with my itouch hahaha.

That picture is badass
I’m very bullish about this venture.

There you go, the post is much much prettier now.. :)
Now cmon staff peoples get this in the front page! ..haha. My goal is to actually make this concept a regular at BE. So hopefully the readers(and editors) love the idea too.. Alright this is my last post tonight foreals.. Man I’ll be late getting up for my OJT again tomorrow hahaha.
PS…It’s fuckn hard editing a fanpost and commenting using an itouch hahaha!

from the artist..
Thanks a ton for the support. Im headed to check out that site right now too… Thanks a ton for everything… Very cool to see my pic on the site man. Thanks again.
I know some of you think this post should be a fanshot.. But these talented artists deserve more eyeballs.. im serious, im on a mission to find the best MMA art out there..Especially from those unknown artists who deserve and need the feature more.. And if it got fronted, i wouldnt want it to be in a gray box with just a caption on it.. I want it to be similar to “snapshot of the day” posts, with a huge title that looks more of a feature than a quick snapshot cause these guys deserve the credit.
I think a 75-word description
would be great. Why you decided to draw it the way you did it etc. Always found explanations help me appreciate the art work just that much more.
AWmusic - mp3 blog on independent music..
yea, but it isn't my work, and it would be a weird task to ask him to make a write up..
anway, this is from the artist’s comments in his deviantart page.
I realized I hadn’t done much inking lately so I did this wacky lined portrait to get back in the groove. UFC champ Rampage Jackson. This is what happens when no one is around to physically remove the pen from my fingers. I Managed to stop myself before the entire paper was solid
hope it helps. :)
