I was just looking at the thread by Darklord of his paintball artwork...some nice work in there if you haven't seen it yet. I too have begun moving into the realm of paintball based illustrations with my professional artwork, so I thought I'd have some show and tell. If you aren't familiar with him, one of the best guys in paintball art is Ronn Stern. You can view his work as www.ronnstern.com.
Whereas Ronn's work is more interpretative and flowing, my style is cutting edge photo-realism. Employing watercolor and colored pencil, I try and incorporate as much detail as possible. I think paintball based art is a small area of the art world that could be expanded and brought to all kinds of people. Not to mention it's a great subject to draw! This particular piece I've included here is a good example of what my work looks like, and you can visit my temporary site to see other examples (although non-paintball.) www.portfolios.com/AndrewSloan
These pieces will be sold as originals as well as prints, although I don't know the details on that yet. I've been talking with the Femmes and Bea Youngs about doing a series on them, so that's also going to be an option in near future. N*Joy!
