Thats quite impressive sir. Wonder if i have the patience for that sort of thing... hmmm..

Perler is the name of the bead kit u used? Or thats the name for the art form in general? (yes im too lazy to google right now lol)

Hello Guildmates, and tnx for the likes in details to the Perler bead art.

Currently the idea of this craft was in hopes i can get sales from making these crafts.

(oh btw, my album so far is on my Facebook page, hit it up here)

http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150300019588303.340388.693618302

So interested in this type of crafts? well here's the deal on this then without giving away trade secrets ;)

These beads are brought in from the US, and i order them from www.amazon.com www.koolstuff4kids.com or www.perlerbeads.com

Typically my orders range around 50-80 US via Rebublic VTM card. You'll be using a lot of white/black for detailing.
(Ignore the cutesy logos on the bins, focus on your patterns at hand you wish to make)

Now you did notice i didn't mention glue, well that's the fun part... These beads melt under heat applied, meaning you iron them for it to bind together. To those who are blessed with patience this craft is great for them. Very decorative and you get cool points for having any toon or game design on your walls, light switches, Rear view mirror hangs and necklace/pins.

Currently deciding how much to sell these for, and i work by Orders alone. Feel free to reply here or on FaceBook if you'd like to join me in this gaming crafts.

To wet your interest in this craft, have a look at these videos


(this was the one that got me started)
(Jowy's tutorial)

and before you think this an only make small stuff, watch this...
(mega perler bead spirtes) @_<


There are a few more vids i can post, but i think the drool will short out your laptop/ruin your keyboard.
There is an expansion idea i have in mind, but will only discuss it with persons who are willing to work along with me.

Now you made your orders, got your boards in order, googled your sprites, only to stare at your 22,000 bead tub and realize, "What the *bleep* i have to sort ALL of these beads?" Sadly yes, they must be sorted out by hand if you wish to make progress with your designs. Bead Cafe in POS sells nice bead bins and cost $35-$65 TT per bin. Typically a tub of beads has around 15-20 color shades so you'll need a bead container with that amount of slots.

Sorting is the longest part of this craft, and really tests your patience and tolerance. I do advise finding a room free of kids and pets as well as a light color carpet, cause beads will drop and seeking that one bead to finish a pattern will cause hair loss xD. If you're as lucky as i am, and know family/friend who can sort rice and has good eyesight, they'll rule as a sorter. [Then again, why spoil your sorting fun :)]

So to all you crafters out there that wish to chat me up on the details, drop me a line on my facebook, e-mail me, or MSN Messenger chat me @ dare2badaniel@hotmail.com

This is the pattern I'm currently building from.
Cya until another post. (applogies to Admin if this post is too long..)

Tnx Q, that's the plan. Hope the guy in Gamezone in Movietowne accepts them for display to advertise and to sell =D just 5 more Marios to go before I display them for sale.

Next will be a tribute to Zelda 25th Anniversary, i plan to have it as a Zelda Symphony look, it's the sprites and the editing is the tough part to do. :yay:

Star power/Invincible Mario SMB3

At the start, didn't have exact colors for his overalls, but in the end came out pretty ok

Tanooki Suit Mario Statue form. This little monster just like it's namesake kept crumbling and was stubborn to be pressed. But i stuck with it and didn't take it for granite  :happy0203:

2 More to go!!!!!
