    Motorcycle Mosaic —Bill Vollbrecht
   Hello again! Here is another MOC, a mosaic of a motorcycle. (URL) This was done for a client who wanted some glued models for her kids Lego themed playroom. This model measures 2 1/2 feet long, and 1 1/2 foot tall. It is built in the shape of the (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX) !! 
   
        Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Bryan Wong
     (...) That's an interesting new take on the whole mosaic idea! If you value your old grey so much (don't we all), why not make your commissioned sculptures out of new grey? -Bryan (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
    
         Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Bill Vollbrecht
      (...) Hey Bryan, I am eventually going to switch over to the new colors. All the new bricks in the the new colors I have gotten, I have been squirrling away. Not nearly enough yet to do a full on switch. Probably when Lego.com or Legoland (...) (19 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
    
         Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Bryan Wong
     (...) Responding to my own thread to keep the clutter to a minimum... How thick is the model? It appears to be only a few studs deep (maybe 4 studs at most), but the various shades of grey give the model much more depth and makes it really look like (...)

         Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Bill Vollbrecht
     (...) Hey Bryan, The whole mosaic in only 2 studs wide. Every Mosaic I have ever done has been the same. In the past all my mosaics are unglued with a glued frame around to keep all the bricks in place. I was going to do the same with this and the (...)

        Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —George Haberberger
     (...) Bill, That's way cool, though the Kawasaki rider in me would prefer to see it in a parallel twin. Nice work on the spokes, too, they really look like spokes. Thanks, George (19 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
    
         Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Bill Vollbrecht
     (...) Hey George, Thanks for noticing the spokes! I couldn't tell if they came off they way I wanted. The lady I did this for painted each wall of the Lego roon a different color (red, yellow, blue, and green). I wasn't sure which wall it was going (...)

     (...) Bill, This is pretty cool! Still I'd really, really like to see a 1:15 scale police car from you(URL) Aaron S (19 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
    
         Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Bill Vollbrecht
     (...) Hey Aaron, Odd you should mention that! I DID build a police car. But I just copied one from some other builder I saw.... Wonder if I need to pay royalties or something? :) Bill (19 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)
   
        Re: Motorcycle Mosaic —Eric Sophie
   Bill, I thought this was sooooo cool. I clicked on it right away when I saw it on Brickshelf. I like the way it looks and the impression the mosaic design gives when you look at parts like the engine and even the front headlight with the white (...)
