Stained Glass Iron Man 2

[tripperfunster]

No, not from the movie Iron Man 2!

dickgloucester has a really cool Iron Man icon and I wanted to do a window of it. She wasn't sure of the original artist, and even when I googled 'iron man cubism' or iron man vorticim I only came up with this and I don't think it's the same artist.

EDIT: Artist found! It's Liam Brazier: http://www.inprnt.com/gallery/liambrazier/

Anyhoo, I just squinted, and worked off the icon and here is the resulting window! It measures 2'x 2' and was about 160 pieces of glass. Sadly, the icon uses a lot of pinks, but they don't really exist in glass. So reds and oranges instead.



It's been grey and cloudy around here for days, so this was the best picture I could get. I'll try again if the sun ever comes out.

Wow, I can't even… I'm in awe. If I had the means and opportunity I'd try and persuade you to sell it to me *G* It's fantastic!

I wish it was cheaper to make, and then I would sell them, but the cost of glass alone on this one was over $100. Plus copper foil, lead and chemicals.

Not a cheap hobby!

I'm not really surprised. I figured that specialty glass would be really expensive! But they are gorgeous :)
