Here’s a technique I’ve been cooking for a while. I chose the CSF banner as inspiration for my first design in order to start with something at least somewhat recognizable. I consider the technique more painterly, so I’ll be doing more ‘art’ with it but using my own subject matter rather than, say recreating the Mona Lisa. Feel free to try that if it interests you.



Incidentally, I worked directly on the baseplates with bricks (1) and then the grille tiles. No software was used. Somehow, the tedium of building/rebuilding is more tolerable for me than the tedium of designing software or planning in photoshop. YMMV.

(1) Rather than plates because they require fewer ‘brick separator interventions’ than plates would, especially when ‘unbuilding’.

Peace and pixels, Professor Whateverly

It has a very painted feel to it, which is quite pleasent. I will have to pull out my grille tile collection and give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration Aaron (17 years ago, 23-Jun-07, to lugnet.build.mosaic, lugnet.space, FTX)
