This thing is SWEEEET!!!! ONE OF A KIND! Bidding ends on Wednesday evening!
Ebay Item Number: 290404081879
Description:
Honda TRX 250r fanatics, this is what you have been waiting for! We all love our bikes, and they have become rarer as the days pass. I took it upon myself to make something that really stands out and is one of a kind. Up for auction is a mosaic that I have put many hours of work into to get it right. You will receive this mosaic (without the "sample" lettering of course) printed on a glossy 36" x 27" poster (I tried to make it an even 2' x 3' but the image would not re-shape correctly). This poster will look absolutely amazing mounted in a frame, or even hung in a garage without a frame.
There are 2,500 tiles, and over 250 different pictures of 250r's that I have accumulated over the internet and taken in real life. If you have posted pictures of your bike (not copy written), there is a good chance it is in this mosaic somewhere. The main picture is of a 1988 TRX 250r (completely stock).
The hardest problem was reaching a desired resolution. In the past, I was able to print out smaller posters, but I found out that when I blew up the image, it was distorted. After a lot of research I finally figured out how to make the images keep their attributes and stay crisp and sharp throughout, and that is why I am offering this poster to you today.
Will I make more of these? It depends on the outcome of this Ebay Auction. If there is no interest, I will simply stop.
Can I make other sizes? Yes I can, and this is something I may do in the future. I wanted to start off BIG!
What other bikes can I create? I can make anything the main image, if you have a request (i.e. your personal bike in the background), let me know and this is something that can be worked out.
Can I print this on canvas, t-shirts, mugs, etc? Yes, but I think posters will be the most desired for an image like this one. If interest is extremely high, I would look at converting to canvas printing.
Why is the picture a bit distorted, and why can I not make out the smaller pictures? Ebay does not allow me to upload a large image file (35 MB), so I had to sacrifice size and quality in order to post the picture on Ebay. Your poster will print clear and crisp!
If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me. Please allow approximately a week or so for me to have everything printed out and and packed correctly. I would hate for this to get damaged in the mail.
Starting bid will cover all processing costs - any other bids over that will be strictly for profit.
I enjoy computers & technology, and I have a great appreciation for the TRX 250r. Any profit will go towards my new 250r that I am working on building.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL & HOPEFULLY MORE POSTERS TO COME!
