A pair of artists who worked out how to create portraits using dice said they were delighted after Manchester City invited them to build a likeness of manager Pep Guardiola.

Ross Montgomery and Ben Hoblyn, of Dice Ideas in Derby, were asked to create the piece to commemorate Guardiola’s 500th game in charge of the club.

The 33-year-old pair, who met at school, found the inspiration to start creating portraits from dice after watching people make artwork out of Rubik Cubes during the Covid-19 lockdown.

Mr Hoblyn told the : “For us, it was something that we were super excited to do. Pep is so well known and such a well-established manager, so that’s what makes it great.”
