I recently finished my latest Lego work which is a studs up mosaic of one of
Roy Lictensteins paintings "Girl in Mirror"

I changed a few things from the original painting including the color of the
background from red to blue and giving the girl some nail polish!

You can see photos and a description of the building of this piece at my
website here;

Also on the site is a new Lego color guide where I measured the color value
using a Pantone spectrometer. Other models detailed there are my version of
a Legoland scale London bus and a minifig signal box.
I have many more pieces to photograph and write up which I will be doing
over time.

Please let me know what you think!

Richard.

Richard, after reading you webpage in detail, I see you are also considering a 'stained glass' mosaic. I've been collecting trans-bricks for some time as well, but still only have a lot of red (mainly -- about 500 1x1). I hope with the possibility (...)
