STATUS: dijibums R-Type wall punched me in the face. DUDE, THAT IS GOING TO WEIGH ~800 pounds when it's completed. AWESOME. What is that... 90 stone? Just joking, I have no idea.

Does anyone remember "shrinky dinks". Been trying to find some myself for awhile. Love the bead art, would also like to see something like shrinky dink keychains.


They still sell the product, but it has a generic name by arts-n-crafts manufacturers... just ask at the local "Michael's" or equivalent in your neck of the woods. I made some PCE shrinky dinks but I can't remember if I posted pictures here or not... (it was several years ago).

Along with everyone else I'm curious not only how much time but also how much money you think you have invested in this art.  All I can really say is that I seriously think it looks amazing!

How exactly were you able to make it look so damn good?  It must of taken a serious amout of preperation.

I started with my room on 2nd July 2011. In hours I can't exactly say it but let me say it this way => a LOT of hours  :P
I have a complete thread on ArcadeOtaku about the process (but you have to be a member there to see the thread)

I work 9 hours a day & I also wish I had more spare time to finish it faster  8) :D.

When the picture is finished it will have nearly 400000 beads which means 400 packages each with 1000 beads. And each package costs 1 Euro = 400 Euro for the beads. But I have to glue the beads to the wall (and you need a strong glue for that). A can of that glue costs 10 Euro and I need 10 cans of that glue = 100 Euro for the glue. So the picture costs 500 Euro when finished (+ a LOOOOOOT of time) => I think that's not that bad  :-".

PS: Thanks for the nice comments guys - believe it or not that keeps me going on that thing because sometimes you can get really sick of it  :wink:.

When you finish, you should show it to the people who run spritestitch.com. I'm sure they'd love to put it on the main page. :)
