Vivarium background

art_in_a_tank Nov 15, 2011 11:55 AM

I have been looking for a artisic outlet so I made my first background. It's for a 10 gallon tank, made from foam covered in grout, painted with non-toxic painted and sealed with a food grade sealer.

I'm posting in this forum to get some feedback of what you guys think. I have some hopes of making more of these, in differant styles, and putting them in the classified section. Thanks for looking!

Very creative, very well done. I think you would be able to sell those easily. What tool do you use to make those deep ridges and more delicate cuts?

For the cuts on the floor a used a drywall knife and the rest of the work was done with a retractable razor and a lighter.
