TimBurdon Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 It's been awhile since I posted anything so I thought I would share my current outlet for LEGO, which seems to be large mosaics. Nothing is smaller than 96x114 studs. I have found that working in grey-scale seems to produce some awesome results, but Batman did need to be done in colour, he is just under 5 feet tall (112x192 studs). Enjoy.

PocasNuckie Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Those are most definetly some great pieces of LEGO Mosaic work there. Iron Man is definetly my favorite. And yes you're totally right when you say gray scales are better - I have done one Mosaic like that and I still think it's way better than all the others I made with colors. Keep going :) Quote
TimBurdon Posted September 6, 2013 Author Posted September 6, 2013 The other benefit of using grey scale colours is that fact they are easier to access than colours. The Iron Man mosaic is a good example. I wanted to do it all in plate, but trying to find that much sand green in plate was ridiculously priced, so I went for brick instead. Quote
lightningtiger Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Bat's turned out really nice now 'Tim', the kids are going to love them at your TC show.....Brick On ! Quote
TimBurdon Posted September 6, 2013 Author Posted September 6, 2013 Looks a lot better finished off, still needed to scrounge up more dark blue (earth blue). Yep bring on the TC show. Toy Corner Southern Bricks LEGO Show November 2nd & 3rd Quote
jluck Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Man, that's just amazing! What a great piece of art! I love the iron man! Quote
eurotrash Posted September 6, 2013 Posted September 6, 2013 Really impressive pieces and I'm sure they're going to be a crowd-pleaser at the show. I think Batman's my favorite with those splashes of color making a difference. Quote
TheLegoDr Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 Very impressive. Mosaics always are impressive, but the scale of these is even more so. I'd love to do a mosaic sometime, but too many pieces. Maybe someday! I think the Batman is really impressive, but that Iron Man speaks to me for some reason. And impressive people. Looks just like them. Quote
