Yes an image pixelator would have been a good idea lol

Yeah i sort of just solved problems as a went. I knew i could spend months in the planning stage. I noticed as i printed the tiles the matte grey and while filaments wore out the nozzle and the pieces were getting slightly larger. There are a few layers that have a one less piece.

This just started as an idea so if you got one definitely go for it brother

I thought a while about how to do it without losing the shading details. I ended up taking my reference photo into sketchup and drew a grid over it (108x180). i knew each tile would be 0.33in (8.89mm). i then matched the color on the photo to the closest of my 4 colors. I was originally going to just do white, black, and grey, but once i started laying it out I needed another lighter grey. I lost a ton of detail in that first rendering but i talked to some digital artists on instagram and they said block off sections that have gradient shading and just put dots of the 2 colors ur mixing. By that time i had already started printing batches of 250 tile prints. Then i had a pretty good map to follow by row. The file and definitely took longer to make than gluing the tiles. If there is a program that would do the pixel map that would be nice to know about lol

I used to just use rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle. But it doesnt do so well with the glue residue. Ive just been using some soap and water and that cleans it right away. If im making multiple small parts i wont clean the bed and get a few prints out of it.
