Custom felt pitch...would anyone buy?

Greetings, my fellow blitzers....

I made this pitch on a piece of felt and I love using it, but currently I find myself in quite a financial pinch. I am thinking of selling this, and possibly making others to sell as well (should there be enough interest).

Some details: pitch is standard size with handpainted lines, endzones, and center pitch. Spaces are divided using small dots, as seen in the one photo. The felt piece is actually 3 foot square, but can easily be cut down a bit if desired. Sorry the photo quality is not better, but I have only my silly camera phone to use right now.

The picture above shows the pitch as a whole, and it looks a little lumpy that's because its on my lumpy bed! :D The pitch smoothes out well on hard surfaces, and can even be ironed from the backside without damaging the front.

Here's a little bit of a closer view, showing my converted Ogre (on 40mm round base) and human blitzer (25mm round base). Here you can see the dots marking the spaces (I painted white dots for the center icon spaces, so they would show more clearly).

Anyway, I welcome all input good or bad. The endzone colors and center icon can be customized, too, no big problem. Thanks for looking!

You realise Impact sells felt pitches? (Just so you don't make a initial outlay then find no-ones buying.)

Yeah, I know, but I thought they had either a supply or IP issue right now. I was thinking more of just selling the one I had. No matter, though, because I really would rather not part with it anyway. :D

Yeah, but you have two kidneys. You only have one of those boards.

How much for the Kidney or will you place it on ebay?

Maybe if you add some black Naf dice with the kidney you could get a good price :lol: :lol:
