The one of the R.S.C. is very nice. Well done Acorn Villa. Keep up the good work.
What size are the stadium prints?
I only do them A3, but I try and accommodate people if they need something else :)Quote:

Any chance of some historic LOI grounds like Morton and Station Road? Maybe Harold's Cross Stadium (which will be bulldozed) or Milltown?
Yeah, I'm hitting some serious stadium fatuige atm as you can imagine, so want to finish off the last couple 1st div grounds + Drogheda, and concentrate on something else then for a bit, but I do want to try some older stadiums too, possibly in a different style as a separate project :)Quote:

If any of you on here run the programs at your clubs or know who does and want to use some of my work, let me know, I'm happy to lend what I have to any LOI club, free of charge ofc ^^
it's not much but it might help ye fill some gaps at some stage during the rest of the season :)
Acorn is it 2 for €40 A3?
Does this include requested ones??
I'll drop you a DM.Quote:

How are those t-shirts selling nigel-harps1954 ??? !!!
I've never actually been to United Park, and with all of them it was a bit of a challenge picking an angle let alone the drawing part, but this is what I came up with anyway!

That's all of the PD grounds now, (I think?)
These are fantastic. Well done. I'm not quite as good an artist but this is my drawing of Cabinteely's ground.

Can I use that one and say it's Cabo? :DQuote:

Hey lads, looking for a bit of help if you could at all.
So, I've been doing another project that's going to be filled with drawings of LOI grounds. I'll pop a few at the end of the post that aren't quite finished yet, if anyone would like a look.
In any case, I'd like to try my hand at lansdowne as well as Dalymount when they were still being used for Ireland games.
Would anyone know a good resource for reference images, so I can get an idea of what they really looked like? That's all really, enjoy your weekend, unless you're from Cork or Dundalk, feck the pair of ye :P

Google street view?
Does it have a time travel option? I wasn't aware that was a thing :DQuote:

Good work Acornvilla, I always enjoy seeing these images. One slight issue I have though is that the grounds are generally so underwhelming, particularly while empty, that it makes it hard to imbue the artwork with any real atmosphere. You've captured the pathos though! ;)

Trawling through sportsfile images will waste several glorious days of life, but there's plenty of good stuff there. Use the search function, include a random year and scroll down past the modern stuff
The brilliant recent Dalymount Park history book is an obvious source for Dalyer. They had them in Easons and the like
