Martigny Posted December 5, 2018 Posted December 5, 2018 I thought I'd share this greyscale digital mosaic with you all. It took ages to make and has 1829 pieces in it - no brushes used. Tough to get the tiles looking realistic but I'm happy with the way it turned out. It's an illustration for a book I'm currently writing. Image quality has been reduced for fast loading.

This second image was made in Affinity Designer too, but I had to do the actual magnification Corel as I couldn't find a way to do it in Affinity.

Martigny Posted December 9, 2018 Author Posted December 9, 2018 Guest said Looks good Martigny. Have you thought about adding some colour? Hi Simon, I made it in colour originally, but I print my books in black and white, so switched to greyscale. It's easy enough to change again, should I need to, because the layers are well organised.
