Business Card Holder for 'Mosaics'

[SirNadroj]

Hey everyone!

So as you must know by now, I'm really big on mosaics. You may also know that I commission them. Having only sold two and donated one, I had a business card for my mosaics professionally designed (by my older brother, who is a genius. Literally, I'm not just trying to stress that he's smart.) ;-) But the background of the card design with the gray squares was my touch. Anyway, here's one of two card holders I made. It's very abstract, as you can see the minifigue coming out of a pile of black 1 x 1's. I actually used some E6000 (super glue) to keep the peices together like they are. Personally, I hate using glue of LEGOs but this effect looks plain cool! ;-)

(If anyone's interested in a mosaic, send a PM my way! X-D )

Thanks guys! :-)

Very nice but the black minifig is really hard to see as-is. And I'm not sure what the scene is supposed to be...it looks like a tsunami of bricks, but I think it would look neater to have a fig rising from a "sea" of bricks, which you can still glue to give that crazy effect.

Personally, I think it is really effective having it as it is, a kind of abstract lego art. :-)

However, glue is not cool. >:-( :-X

Although i can see where your coming from, you wouldn't be able to get that effect without glue. Sometimes you've gotta do what you've gotta do... :-| :-D

This looks really cool, love to see the other one you've made! *y*

Thanks ~ it's supposed to be abstract and the figure is supposed to blend in. That's the abstract part. :-P .......... ;-)

Yeah, it pains me to use glue. Trust me. It's just that I've got thousands upon thousands upon thousands of these little black 1 x 1's, so it's not like I'm really losing much. ;-) But seriously, I've probably got 10,000 per colour! X-D

I may post pics of the other one at some point. It's a hand and you take one form the left side. You'd have to see it to know what I'm talking about, since it's hard to explain! :-$

Ah, so what's the intended meaning behind it then? :-P

I'm only a wee bit jealous... I have a question for you then; why do you mostly make little MOCs?

I dunno, it's up for interpetation! ;-)

Well, I use these for mosaics. I like smaller MOCs, but I build something HUGE I usually buy everything from Bricklink before hand, and that costs hundreds of dollars depending on how big I build said MOC. ;-)

I was going to ask "But what big MOCs?", and then I decided to instead check you MOCPages to save you the time. ;-) From what I saw there I say; more big MOCs! :-D (I like the King's Keep but I never got around to commenting on it last time.... :-$ )
