I wish I had that kind of talent. I had Terry Doughty do it. Of all the artists I looked at his paintings were the most lifelike.

What is the cost for something like that?

It's comparable to having a reproduction done depending on how large you want it. Something 24 x 36 would be more . This is 16 x 29 .

sweet!
i've been considering the same thing and looking at Rodd Umlauf.
i like Doughty's work a lot though too.
the thought of a commissioned painting is very appealing because it's so unique.

Umlauf was where I first got the idea to have a painting done of "my next 50 incher". He was the only one I knew of that did commissioned work. I got out all my old Musky Hunter calanders to see whose work I liked best. Doughtey's were what I liked best and thought were the most lifelike. I took pictures of the rock ,the saddle ,and the full moon rising ,described the weeds around it and this is what he came up with . I'm very happy with "Moonlight Musky".

Great Idea and a very nice painting! But, why is this on a cinder block wall in the basement? An item of such beauty should be prominently displayed in one's living room!

Wow that really is pretty cool and would make a great gift for someone special or yourself.

Surprised that nobody mentioned that your rod is in a bad position for a hook set! LOL Very nice piece of art work!

Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful piece! Terry Doughty is one of my favorite artists. His muskies are some of the best I have ever seen.

Tell that to the wife. She puts here foot down on fish. I have grouse and pheasants in our bedroom. She has Kinkades in the living room. Fish go in the basement.

That's pretty sweet! I have a friend that's an artist and I may have him do that for me when I catch my first 50.

Dude, your wife must be Smokin' Hot to enforce that rule! No matter, the only course of action now is you should Remodel the Basement! Makes for a good winter project. Good luck with that! What's a Kinkade??

I got lucky! When I got my pictures developed of my 44 1/2, it almost exactly matched the fish in framed print by Scott Zoelick hanging in my office. The coloring and markings are perfect. And I didn't have to pay extra to have it done!

Very nice.

I love having big printers handy. I've printed some BIG fish for some friends on banner and posters and they turn out pretty sweet.
