Two new flower mosaics....
Well, okay, the ParLUGment one isn’t really new since it’s been built for a few
months and was actually on display at Brickfest. I’m a little behind in taking
pictures. :)
The LEGO logo seemed like an obvious good candidate for a mosaic of this type.
The only problem of course was that LEGO doesn’t make black flowers. Go figure.
Using blue flowers seemed like a reasonable compromise on the ParLUGment mosaic,
but that just wasn’t going to cut it for the LEGO one. I finally bit the bullet
and, with the advice of ParLUGment’s resident painting expert, dove into the
task of painting 180ish blue flowers black. I think they turned out pretty
well, but it certainly wasn’t very much fun.
Someday, probably when I’ve forgotten what a pain it is to paint flowers, I’d
like to retrofit black ones into the ParLUGment mosaic as well.
Enjoy,
J
