Patience is probably the most important factor in getting these done. You certainly can't rush through this sort of thing. Thanks so much!

Yeah, I can c why. I'd probably end up hitting the thing on accident, and erase the whole pic. I'd b very ticked...

bryanetch In reply to makershy [2011-08-23 22:18:06 +0000 UTC]

Yes, it's a regular etch-a-sketch, just like you'd find in the stores. I just spent a lot of time on this one, filling in all the space with buildings and stuff. Thanks!

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmnn... that's some serious talent!

I drew Espio the Chameleon and wrote his name in the top corner w/ an etch-a-sketch in one of the isles at WAL-MART once...

I think you may have just inspired me to start a new series of etches.. Guerilla style etch-a-sketching. I'll go into the stores, spend about 15 minutes on a piece, then put it back on the shelf. I'll be sure to snap a picture each time I do it. I'd imagine it would get some fun reactions from random shoppers and employees when they see there's legit art left behind on the shelves. I'm sure they'll all get shaken, but I kind of like the temporary idea of it.

Thanks for the kind words, and the inspiration!

HeLIZacopter In reply to bryanetch [2011-08-20 03:34:13 +0000 UTC]

Hey, no prob! That would be sooo cool!

And when I wrote Espio's name, I actually wrote backwards, in a way that would read forward when read without a mirror! (You'd have to be there to see it)

bryanetch In reply to Isabelle-Fake [2011-08-25 14:56:15 +0000 UTC]

They take different amounts of time based upon the detail and difficulty. This Philadelphia etch was probably my most involved and it took me around 25 hours probably.. Hour a night for 2-3 weeks. I did Boston in about 12 hours, and the first NYC etch took me between 5-6 hours (but it's nowhere near as detailed or precise.) I can do pocket portrait etches in about an hour, if it only takes me one try. Sometimes it can take up to 10 tries. Thanks!
