MOSAIC : Ayrton Senna

[PocasNuckie]

Hi guys, hope you're all doing great. I don't post here in a while because well I didn't have any new work to show up until now because University has been keeping me busy. Anyways, I have not been entirely stopped and sure didn't lose any of my interest in LEGO. So, I helped my father do this since he joined me in the Dark Side of LEGO Mosaics too a while ago.

It's a 128x128 studs LEGO Mosaic of the deceased F1 Champion Ayrton Senna. It has 5900 pieces of 5 different colors , ranging from sizes of 1x1 to 6x8 studs.

Hope you all like it. I got some projects up my sleeve that I hope to show you soon enough when I finish my graduation and have time to put my hands on the pieces.

Really nice work.

Good job,

do you always use only LEGO colors?

Nice mosaic!

I don't exactly understand what you're asking. But yes I suppose I use LEGO colors only. I don't like painting pieces.

Nice job, what software do you use for do that?

No title needed for this one! That face is unmistakable - and about as close to perfection as can possibly be accomplished with Lego. Usually I don't pay much attention to mosaics but this one probably has far greater appeal overall due to his enduring popularity. (It's hard to believe he's been gone 21 years now...) This is one of the best Lego creations I've ever seen due to the incredible realism of the illustration. I also think working in black and white was a good idea as it probably would've been much harder to replicate that picture using the full range of somewhat limited colors. Good job selecting that contemplative expression from the 3-time World Champ as well. Excellent work!

I use PicToBrick. It's the easiest one to use (once you get the hang of it). Too bad its sort of outdated and a lot of the colors generated there are not produced by LEGO anymore, but I try to use whatever equivalent colors there are when possible.

I also prefer Black and White Mosaics (I think my best are the BW ones really). In this case just it was made in B&W because of all the photos I tried on the software (yes, you gotta try a lot before getting one that works good) it was the best result I got.

Me and my father wanted to do someone really iconic this time and after putting a lot of people aside because they we're already made in LEGO Mosaic we came up with the idea of Ayrton. I think it turned out quite good and I have lots of friends in my LUG who are racing fans and have been freaking out about this.
