Nice idea. I would work with the design a bit more to get the roundel more "round" and to get the blue zones to meet up in the center. I assume this is Race Deck Tile?

Yeah I checked your thread prior to starting this one. Since this isn't to scale the roundel isn't as round. It looks better when it's designed to scale. I plan to play around with a couple of more ideas before I decide.........Phil

I would make the roundel bigger, actually look round, and not worry about equal margins around the edge.

Also, I would consider a classic nes mario instead

Great job man.

Despite still having bare concrete, I've done a lot of research on flooring. I don't like the idea of having space underneath my tiles, since for it to work, you have to assume you have a level, sloped floor. Thats how the garage should be designed... but mines not perfect Its also no cheaper than a good epoxy install.

So, when I say good epoxy, I'm not considering anything you can buy at a hardware store Sherman Williams, Wolverine, etc, all make some heavy duty epoxy's you can rely on for industrial use. My plan is to skip the BMW rep on the floor, and take it to the wall . ///M on the wall, and just a nice epoxy+chip floor.

Just my 2 cents!

Great pic (and scene)!

Agreed! And make it this one while you're at it.
