| (...) Yes it is ! If you build larger mosaics, you'll see that it gets much heavier if you only use plates. The more bricks you use, the lighter your finished mosaic will be. The best method?? In my mosaic I searched for large areas to use bricks (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mosaic)
