Footy mosaics

[Greebo]

Here's a couple of mosaics that I finished this week. The wests tigers one is made from vitreous glass and was very fiddly. The Warriors one is ceramic tile and was much simpler to do.

Wow! They look awesome Greebo. Mosaicing (is that even a word? lol) is something I've always wanted to try!

 

[mrsshep77]

Are you going to sell them or would you take orders for others and if so how much??? Geez we're an opportunistic bunch aren't we...
Excellent Job mate!!!

I am working on a Green Tree Python at the moment. I had to put it on the back burner while I made those footy ones.
The tigers one I sold for $150. It was very fiddly and took a lot longer. The warriors one was a lot easier and less colours and I sold it for $80.
This wasn't meant to be a for sale ad but I will take orders. A Bronco's one would be mid-range around $120 (I just have to make sure I can get that purple colour). The cost varies depending on the colours and the intricacy of the design.
*note- I will swap for herps!*

I just use handcutters like below, mostly the side cutters. It's a bugger when the tiles splinter though.

 

[scam7278]

yeah thats the one maybe the same size as the other ones

 

[Jozz]

Thats what I had, It gave me the poos! Thought maybe there was an easier way. They look so great though!

 

[reece89]

good job

 

[Greebo]

This is my biggest piece so far. It is 150cm X 80cm. It took me ages but I think it came out really well.

 

[tempest]

Wow, that looks fantastic too Greebo.

Out of curiosity, how much did it roughly cost you to get set up with all the tools, etc, that you need?

 

[Hsut77]

Greebo, they are awesome! Do you free hand the designs or trace them?
