I’ve been a little burnt-out and unchallenged with sculptures recently and
decided to try something I had no experience with... mosaics. Several ideas
occurred to me. I was happy with the
Grayscale Mosaics I
created and wanted to tackle converting digital images into color LEGO mosaics.
First I determined exactly which colors could be used in a LEGO mosaic.
Although there’s far more than 100 LEGO colors, only about 25 come in a size,
quantity, and cheapness that makes them useful in creating a mosaic. Then,
using several software programs together, and a pinch of pixie dust, I created
some Color Mosaics.
Considering I just started tackling this challenge about a month ago, I’m
pleased with the results. I’ve made three mosaics so far and every time I do I
learn something and my next one is far better... in my opinion. :)
For my first color mosaic, my subject was my girl:
(The camera made the dark orange come out VERY dark for some reason. It is not
that dark in reality.)
Although they are a fun build, these mosaics are very time consuming. Each took
several hours.
Comments and suggestions welcome!
