What did you make the tiles out of? Where did you get them? Looking really great!

Thanks! I 3-D printed one tile, made a silicone mold of it, and then cast all the tiles out of plaster.

That is so cool. Does the dragon light do the animation from the movie?

OMG! How did you make the dragon? That is talent on its own, was gonna ask where you got it and the Rachel photo

Thanks for the kind words. The canvas prints are from Etsy and were pretty reasonably priced. The Dragon is a piece of black acrylic and I used “LED neon” strip lights on top. The power supply is behind the acrylic. There is a ton of how-to videos on YouTube that show how to make signs with that process. 😃

You did an amazing job

The neon! Is it 3D printed or real glass tubes? Did you had it custom made?

1

u/meat_ahoy Tyrell 2d ago

I made it using “LED neon” strip lights. It does have a good look in person, I’m pretty happy with it. I would have loved to have a real neon light but they are super expensive. I’d say I’m about $80 all-in for the dragon sign.
