Ordered even more LEGOS. I wish I had giant bins of them so I wouldn’t have to STOP the creation process. Grrrrr.

The work is mysterious and important… and can continue once again.

@gedeonm@mastodon.social how do you build the frames, and how do you create the pictures in the right colours? Are these things trade secrets?

@scrwd@mastodon.social Colors are a bit trickier but once you know the palette you can use it or approximate it when you create your mosaic/portrait. A couple I’ve done have required shifting a few hues to existing colors but they still turned out great.
There are about 43 colors but their consistency varies depending on which vendor you order from. The lighter colors are the most inconsistent for some reason, maybe because your eye can spot the hue changes easier. Not sure.
