I know we don’t have 2×4 light bluish gray tiles or I would have bought a couple boxes of them. No trans-blue tiles at the moment either. We did have red 1×4 plates and 2×10 (or maybe 2×8) green plates, as well as a larger green round plate.
Is there anything specific you need? I’m closing the store tonight and can reply after my shift if you see this in time. I will be there noon to 6 on Saturday as well if you want to say hi.
Sorry @courtneywright76. I knew there was something I forgot to do. 🫣
It might be late notice, but I am working at the comic store in West View this Thursday night. It’s officially an open table night at the store if we want to do a game night.
I buy instructions and parts lists (and create want lists on BL from them) on Rebrickable all the time. This seems like a nice supplement to all the other instruction sites out there, just without any IP MOCs.
To be bluntly honest, I don’t think this is a “send random stuff over” kind of thing. This group is very big on the builder being present to talk about their work. The producers were very interested in the Kyle and Lia have similar builds/interests, know of each other, but have never actually met in-person thing.
I have the parts and stickers for all of the Scarlet Patronus DA MOCs. They fit really well with the last DA set. They are all on Rebrickable.
Worth Noting I have one multiple Justifiers that all had the figs removed, I had bought the protection so I got my money back but it seems sets with valuable figures are not worth trying to get through this site
That’s exactly why I have balked at sets like that one and the Daily Bugle from there.
Nice to meet you tonight, Courtney! (Who lives within walking distance of @knb112)
We pulled everything out of the bags and are amazed with the details in this set. That must have been one heckuva crash! Coop is excited to get started!
I sent you a Message thru the board with my phone number. If you can’t get to it, email me at mrmain18 at yahoo dot com.
@courtneywright76 I sent you a PM about 10 days ago. We are still willing to help!
Cooper and I are interested in helping out. We are in the north hills as well, but we are leaving town for a week tomorrow (Friday) morning.
I can ask my son if he would be interested in helping (with me “assisting” him), but it probably wouldn’t be for free. He may want a Target or Lego Store gift card.
I’m looking at the STAR WARS mosaics and it overloads my brain that you have that many plates in that array of colors!
I had a few, but that mostly lots and lots and lots of Bricklink orders. I think I only used 15 or so different colors. Photobricks doesn’t exactly have the largest color pallette.
I would like to do a mosaic of Olaf from Frozen but my new Mac operating system is not allowing use of the programs I tried, including STUD.IO I’ve tried some programs online but the designs they generated might not be worth the effort. (see below)
Could it be a problem with the original image? Should I try something different?
If the attached image is the exact one you were using, it may that the image is too small. When I downloaded it, it was rather tiny. What size mosaic are you looking to build? 32×32? 48×48? Something larger?
I played around with a similar image to the one you attached. This one is the best I could come up with a fairly quick turnaround. It’s 48×48. Olaf is tough because it’s really hard to get the subtleties of the shading with a limited set of colors.
I like that shield generator! I’ll have to look up that designer.
I found this particular MOC here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-39220/papaglop/echo-base-shield-generator/
P.S. that’s a lot of 1×1 plates! Are those all baseplate size? So 1024 plates each?
If you are referring to the mosaics, I used whatever-sized piece(s) best fit the spot that needed filled. They are all on 48×48 baseplates.
I ended up building a train platform to put under the Christmas tree and ended up with three separate train lines. I finished building Papaglop’s Hoth Shield Generator MOC and threw it in the middle. I figured the AT-AT would be a good add. Coop decided to decorate it too. The new Elf Clubhouse is in the corner just below the pic–I think it’s my new favorite build.
