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,

yes, these were a very colourful addition to the layout. not as colourful as they would be if someone (no names) would paint some mauve & peach coloured flowers for the rest of his group, but awesome just the same. the big question is, will we see the photo of the lawncare specialist who got a bit too zealous or had a rough night?
