Graystan vector & mosaic

Graystan is one of the characters of our group in our Equestria Pen and Paper RPG. He is played by Carnorius and for his recent birthday I made this drawing and a mosaic version of the same drawing. Graystan, is a strong and sturdy earthpony and a stonecutter (which is very fitting as you will see if you take a look at Carnorius' beautiful soapstone carvings). Graystan is more down to earth in every respect of the word than any of the others in the group and somewhat suspicious of magic or flying. Much to his distress he recently had to spend a lot of time in our game in the rather magic loaded home of a unicorn family before paying a visit to Cloudsdale (made possible by the walk on clouds spell we saw in the series). Graystan is the last to condemn anypony for actions unless he sees them causing any direct harm and sometimes he seems a bit annoyed about being dragged into the whole "saving the world kind of business" without having been asked   He is straightforward, easygoing (live and let live kind of attitude) and difficult to disconcert, but if he is threatened or sees others being threatened one is well advised not to get anywhere in his stonebreaking hooves' way. The black and green tatoos on his head, neck and torso are a relic of a visit to a tribe of ponys living in the jungle where he did very outstanding in what turned out to be an initiation ceremony in which he defeated three of their warriors in a competetive brawl (my own character managed one ending up with a more subtle tatoo ). Graystan's father Naponeon was considered a bit of a mad pony who styled himself "General Naponeon" and wasn't taken serious for his weird prophecies until Discord during his reign pretty much turned all those weirdo prophecies real, helping "General Naponeon" to some unexpected fame and recognition (I hope that some day our group will meet that father whom our characters so far know but from the tales of Graystan only). Thanks and credit for the background go to mandydax. Thanks to you and to all the artists who offer backgrounds for credit to other artists   Here is a version of the mocaic version of Graystan:

I made this Mosaic of his Equestria Pen and Paper RPG character Graystan for Carnorius for his recent birthday. It is based on this vector. There are several more images of the making of this mosaic: To create such a mosaic the outlines of the image are glued (with a special glue for the stones) onto a net and afterwards the outlines are filled in with more stones. When all the stones are glued onto the net, the parts of the net not covered by stones can be cut around and the whol think can be moved around (and turned) freely. Later the net with the mosaic is glued onto a background which preveiously has to be treated with a special primer to allow for the net and the stones to stick to the background. Later on the gaps between the stones can (but needn't be) filled with grout. In case of this mosaic I used grout only between the gray stones but not between the other colors where it might have looked somewhat messy.
