Process and Pricing

Customers send me High Resolution images (in focus with no shadows) that I will draw by hand in Inkscape. The level of detail is decided by the customer which reflects in the price of each piece. Drawing a fully detailed machine by hand can take up to 60 hours. The Diamond engraving can take up to 6 hours depending on the level of detail required. The sanding and polishing can take a further 4 hours to do. So all in, it can take around 70 hours to complete. Some people will work a 38 hour week and feel they have worked hard. My 70 hours are completed in 1 week.

Depending on the orientation of the source image, the artwork will be either 47” tall or 47” wide and created on 14 gauge (2mm) Aluminium

All of my artworks are signed and Unique to the customer. (not some mass produced toy from online)

My artworks start out at £590 And For a fully detailed artwork it is £750. Postage and Packing is £70 due to size and packaging
