Zoom in

A 96x64 mosaic of the Dark Lord himself based off a magnet I got at a Darth Vader Speed Build Event at the Lego Store.

About this creation

Comparison with actual magnet and mosaic. (Sorry about the compressed, small images)

Design grid. (Sorry about the dark-ish image)

Notes:

Hey guys, I actually finished and destroyed this back in June. Now, I am finally posting it. It was so much fun making this MOC. It took me a whole month to design, plan, fix the plan, build, order off bricklink, and finish. I was also able to bring it to High Five (See Solomon's Temple Journal, day four part 1). I hope to rebuild it and bring it to Brickworld 2011.

Speaking of Solomon's Temple, for those of you who follow Solomon's Temple Journal logs, the last one is coming out this weekend! I PROMISE! So stay tuned! I know I'm very late with it, but life gets in the way peoples, plus it's a very lengthy thing to put together.

Also speaking of mosaics, I launched a blog about a month ago. MosaicBricks - The only blog dedicated to all things Lego mosaics. I'd love if you'd check it out and even bookmark it perhaps (favorite if you're using internet explorer).

If you would like to, please comment, rate, add me as your favorite builder, or check out my other creations. Constructive criticism is always welcome!

Thanks,
~Casey~

Fantastic work! Nice to see that you drew it out, as opposed to using a program to do it for you.~H

That's a great mosaic. Like others have said, the lettering is small, but it's only a minor drawback, as I didn't even notice that problem until I saw it mentioned in the comments. Nonetheless, good job, and I hope to see more MOCs like this in the future!

Quoting M<0><0>DSWIM ! Man, this is a real beauty! Very very accurate to the pic. My only suggestion would be to try and make the lettering thicker in the SW logo. But that's minor. Keep it up!

Yeah! That's the only thing that I wasn't really happy with either. I tried doing the Star Wars Logo 3 different times, but I ran out of time when I needed to bring it to Day 4 of the Solomon's Temple, so I used one that I thought worked best (6 studs high, instead of 5 and 7). I'll need to go back and redesign that later. Thanks!

Quoting David . My bother won the speed building challenge at the Lego Store by us and we got that magnet too. You can see the Darth Vader we got in my moc: D . - MOCOlympics R1 - Bring me the Chosen One you can't see it that well, but it is the rare one that you could win.

Quoting Commander Spencer I actually won that speed building challenge.

Yeah guys, I actually lost that to a 16 year old who wasn't actually supposed to be playing, so if you're reading this whoever you are, you owe me a platinum/chrome Darth Vader. XD

Quoting Garth Danielson Very nice. I'll check out your blog. I too have a blog but mostly about movies and books with some LEGO thrown in. see ya. garth

Yeah! I think I found it when I googled "casey lego" or something and found that you blogged my Christmas Vig. It was quite a pleasant surprise!

Quoting Justin R. Wow! That is awesome! Great job Casey!

Thanks Man! I haven't seen you in a while. You need to start making more MOCs. =)

Quoting Nobody ...

Thanks to everyone who commented and rated this. I appreciate it!
