I'm not a huge invader fan, but that is very nice, well done!

I'm not makin anymore using these tiles though. The results are too scrappy as the tiles are not square 
Anyone know of a source of properly square tiles?

Make your own Invader!, by benchwarmer on Nov 14, 2014 11:55:13 GMT 1, otomi, I actually just made one for myself, but then people really liked them and a few people asked if I could make another. So I did, mostly because i'm a nice guy (not cool, but nice). The money im asking for it covers the materials and the postage and maybe some ice cream for me. Thats it. Im not looking to be the West Invader Prince. The edition is 3, no more no less.
Thanks!

Those are beautiful, and there is no way in hell I could ever do something like that myslef. It's quite clear that paying for material and postage is faire game, but the "ice cream" part I don't feel so good about...even at the going rate of ice cream these days.
It reminds me of that Eine "Repetition" print. I like the joke, and art is not serious, but if it is a joke then why is it being sold for 75-90 ยฃ ? Why doesn't the guy just ask Eine to give him money to pay for his booze for a year ?
I know it's a bit tough, and you are not comparable to the clown doing the Eine ripoff, but it is a tenuous line...
In any case, that Invader is amazing, I really am extremely impressed by the result

About the icecream-part, I actually sold the first one (hi @federationofideas) at a loss. So I'm asking $50 for this one. The postage is about $15-20 and the materials around $20. So all in all I made about $1 an hour in making these. I don't think that's asking too much?
Zanda, I think it might be!

Make your own Invader!, by Charlie on Jan 21, 2016 17:11:52 GMT 1, Hello,
Have any of you Space Invader fans that can not afford to buy the real thing, ever made your own for the walls in your home?
If so, how did it turn out, was it a disaster or does it look good??
I am tempted to purchase some mosaic tiles from Amazon for ยฃ4.95 and give it a go myself..... Unless I win the Euros tomorrow night and can get myself the real ones!

The art copied is Invaders creation so re selling it could lead to problems. I understand if a fan wants to make one for themselves to put on thei wall but the artist/s who create the originals should be respected. Even if re sold for the cost of the materials, they could end up on Ebay one day or some other places.
Didn't I see a Glitter Gorilla on Ebay for a few hundred bucks not long ago?

Perhaps the owners of the original atari game could sue the artist for copyright???. See so many artists using star wars etc...in their pieces?? They don't seem to give a sh+t about copyright in those circumstances!!
