Inspiration obviously drawn from whoever it was that posted the original
greeblied picture frame and from the current fashion for vignette’s.

If you’re referring to
this then I’m glad
it was inspirational. Nobody seemed interested at the time I posted it, but
this MOC totally makes up for it. On that note, this MOC is awesome. It looks
really awesome, you can’t even really tell its on one of the lego frames. A
truly awesome job. As others have said, I like the way you aranged the tiles,
and I think the frame is a nice touch. The addition of a floor in front is
cool too.

Yep! that’s the one, although for some reason in the mental image I had of it
the spaceman was holding a black spanner. Brains are such weird things. I do
remember going and looking at it when it was originally posted and mentally
filed it away for future inspiration.
I was in the lego store in Kingston picking up the UCS Y-Wing and spotted the
frames, Your MOC popped back into my head and I thought “I have to have a go at
that!”
As for the tiles, I had originally intended to go for a regular tesselation of
2x2 tiles, but it would have limited where I could place the greeblies and the
connection points for the porthole, plus I don’t actually have that many tiles
:) Once I started with the random tiles it just looked right and I ran with it.
I really wish I had picked up a few more frames now, I want to do a jungle
clearing scene in green next. Annoyingly the frames aren’t available via
shop.lego.com in the UK.
Cheers
Tim
