I had that idea in mind for a long, long time actually, since one of my bros is a huge fan of John Petrucci so he's looking forward to a good sketch of JP. So he is probably the next DT member I'll drawing anyway :)

Haha not really. I'm no match for Rembrandt van Rijn. He was and always will be the best of his kind.

Thank you :)

Absolutely Stunning. Really amazing talent. 
Your image made me come out of lurk mode! 

I, along with everyone else, think that Mike would absolutely love this. Who wouldnt feel honored to have someone spend so much quality time spent on rendering them.  

Good luck using your talent to make a living!

Still hoping Mike will get to see this...! :)

Trust me... he has seen it. He just can't awser to these kind of things because next thing there will be a zillion of threads with ''Mike, I've got a new dog and called him MP, please take a look'', ''MP, my beard looks more blue than yours, what do you think?'' or ''Mike, my grandmother can has play The Glass Prison, take a look!!!''

God, I wish someone'd step forward and tell us his beard was more blue than Mike's. I'd laugh so hard. Not because his beard was more blue though, just because he's telling us.

That is by far the best drawing I have ever seen in my life.  I still don't believe the left side could have been drawn.  It's so freakin' good it's mind blowing!

So is your avatar a photo of you or a self-portrait sketch?

Absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!
I am truly flattered and totally impressed... 
 
...and I wish I really looked that good!! 
 
Congrats on such an amazing job!!

A bit maybe...

I think it's more since the painting is really outstanding than that he'll start to answer more questions...

It'd be a pity, if there'd be a lot of threads and posts trying to contact MP.

Plus it's unnecessary work for Wey!

wow awesome job!

Woa!!!! Amazing work!!!! I first thought you just photoshoped some pics of him, beacuse everything just looks soo.....real!!!

PLEASE do one of JP!!!! That'd be sooo cool! ;)

All the best to you for 2010!

For some reason I had a good feeling he would respond to this.  I'm sure it made all of the hard work and time that was put into it worth it.  I can't even imagine being able to create something with even a fraction of the greatness that this is.

This truly is an amazing drawing. I checked out your other work and thats just as impressive. I really wish I had some degree of artistic skills like you.

Hey Nicolien...

Just wanted to let you know that MP uses your painting as his avatar pic on Twitter!

Dennis

yeah that must be a compliment indeed! He took the best part out of the picture imo. I would like to see that that portrait completely without the other parts..!

Oh my goodness.... that is some talent you have there. Great work man....

My FLICKR: See it here

Absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!

Wow! Thank you! And for using the pic at Twitter too...
I couldn't wish for a better compliment than that.

Sometime I hope to get to show you the real sketch fo sho. Who knows. (:

The difference between dogs & grannies and my drawing is that I spent about 60 hours in putting this together (although... a granny might need 60 hours to play TGP). Anyhoo, you know what I mean. Still I knew my chances for getting a comment from MP himself was less than 0% so the more honoured I feel that I actually got a comment after all.

awesome job!!  and I am happy Mike chose to use your drawing...congrats

what an honor, his twitter picture is your drawing.

Mike!
I named my grandmother MP!  
her beard is more blue than yours!
oh and my dog can play The Glass Prison!

I lol'd...

How amazing is that, huh?
Having MP use your picture as his twitter avatar...

This is absolutely mindblowing. You should definitely get that marvelous drawing framed, and hopefully you'll be able to give it to the man in person someday. I hope you will !

When you make such a wonderfull, perfect and mindblowing drawing, showing so much skill and devotion, you truly deserve Mike responding to it..

I like this thread...100% positive comments!

Incredible, and such dedication. Awesome job!

In peaceful sedation I lay half awake
And all of the panic inside starts to fade

Incredible drawing........ and getting props from Mike too..

Very well done on both fronts
