Welcome

LEGO Do you love Lego? Do you love Star Wars? Well, I sure do! As a result, I have created a "masterpiece" of one of the most iconic Star Wars characters. Additionally, I have taken the time to write a step by step instructable. You can see my flickr set of the mosiac here. Please feel free to leave comments about any questions you may have, also let me know if this piece inspires you to do your own!

Update: Maker Faire 2007 Austin. For those of you finding this site after visiting our booth at Maker Faire, feel free to leave comments or shoot me an email if you end up creating your own Lego Mosaic, I look forward to featuring your creation on here as soon as you email it to me at: legomosaic@gmail.com (yes for those of you who have my card, it's a different address, but will still get to me).

New Technique, new Mosaic

Well, After 1 year of being away from my Lego, I've decided to begin work on a SNOT style mosaic. What's SNOT? Well, it stands for "Studs Not On Top" Check out Eric Harshbarge's "Mad Hatter" piece to see an example of SNOT. Anyway, the added complexity of building the piece, adds to a much higher fidelity in terms of the pixel appearance. The reason I want to try SNOT is the piece I want to do has a lot of curves in it and I'm anxious to see how well I can do a "circle" in Lego :)

As my trials of success or failure come in, I'll update the site :)

Oh come on, be honest. You just want an excuse to use to say SNOT. ;-)
