I just have to ask, is your courtroom floor made up of headlight bricks

This isn't all of them, and I'm sure other people could come up with lopts
more, but these are my favorites from the batch I've worked out so far.

Jumping, jiminie headlight bricks! Those are [super] neat.  I think I may
have to place an order for a couple thousand headlight bricks soon.

Indeed. I have a couple thousand red (that I got from a seller at a very good
price) already, but not so many of other needful colors.

I'm keen to get some background on how these were created.. I'm thinking that if
you made up a number of submodels that had the various variants of colors in the
4square of bricks, you could use those to piece together the patterns.

Rev, is that what you did? Or what? can you share some of your dats? Maybe
people will get motivated! It could be like quilting!

I think these patterns are more like the tessellated tile patterns found in
Islamic architecture; for example at the Alhambra in Granada, Spain. Isn't a
square tile repeating pattern mathematically restricted to only 7 (types). Have
you completed an example of each? Maybe this could be a (more mathematical)
motivation?

So are you changing faiths then?
