Anyway. The most basic mosaics are made with the studs (...) (18 years ago, 29-Apr-06, to lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !!

| Okay, I just finished typing the tutorial. It's long. The first mosaics will be easy, but things will get comlicated in the end. If you have questions, I'm sure you'll know where to post them. These tutorials will be text-ONLY. It assumes you have (...) (18 years ago, 29-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

Mathematically, it all fits. The only thing that's stopping me (...) (18 years ago, 30-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

The tutorial covers well the one step from your original post that I wasn't sure of, letting the computer decide which orientation is best for each section. You (...)

I'm not done yet, but the pattern on the plan I created (using Bricksaic) could be better. It's not Bricksaic's fault (...) (18 years ago, 1-May-06, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

I did my own interesting style (I called it just a SNOT-mosaic) back in Dec 2002: (URL) does not "mix" studs out and sideways bricks... but the technique is similar to what you've proposed here. You are correct, the techniques do work (...) (18 years ago, 1-May-06, to lugnet.build.mosaic, FTX)

And judging from your picture, SNOT comes very natural to you! :) Being mostly a castle builder myself, I just don't have very much experience with SNOT... Example 3 (...)
