  1. I've listed a one-of-a-kind LEGO mosaic featuring Astro Charlie from Nodes of Yesod on eBay. The mosaic is 24x24" and would look great in a game room, office, or den.

    This is one of a small number of prototypes I created while testing various configurations of LEGO pixel art mosaics. As such, it is pretty unique and has a direct connection to the creator of the original game (me!)

  2. Timelapse of Lego tile rendering of Astro Charlie. Mixed results with the Mastodon embed, here's a YouTube embed, let's see how bad this one is.

    Each time I watch this I panic that I am not going to finish before the music ends, lol. :)

  3. Astro Charlie from Nodes of Yesod in Lego™️ tiles. I made a timelapse but need to edit, will post. Yes, I am off by 1 pixel in X and Y because apparently I can’t count. #zxspectrum #8bit #pixelart #lego #astrocharlie #nodesofyesod

  4. Timelapsed construction of Astro Charlie from the 8-bit Spectrum/C64/Amstrad CPC game Nodes of Yesod, rendered in 2x2 stud Lego tiles.

    I am using four 12"x12" baseplates for an overall size of 24"x24".

    (edited to fix a rendering glitch in the video)

  5. Here are a couple of snaps of the 8-bit pixel Lego art pieces. These are on a 12" x 12" Lego-style baseplate using 1x1 node bricks, note my hand for scale too (and deliberate mistake).

    I have already ordered some genuine lego 2x2 node tiles (smooth surface) plus 4 base plates to make a 24” x 24” piece. That will give a perfectly uniform tile alignment, in addition to a lower surface profile; that said, there is something to be said for the 3D profile of the current set, especially in certain lights.

  6. Following on from yesterday's post, here's another frame of Astro Charlie from Nodes of Yesod, this time in mid-somersault!

    Again, credit to my daughters for the construction, Dad 'directed'. :)

    It's on a 12" x 12" Lego baseplate using 1x1 node bricks. Will post some stills of the final items.

  7. Astro Charlie from Nodes of Yesod in Lego-style pixels. My daughters did this build, with Dad on logistics, materials, video & editing, etc. Yes, I turned my dining room table into a lego pixel factory on Christmas day. :)

    I think these are ace, and great for the office/person-cave wall. Will post more pics of the finished result. These are on 12" x 12" base plates.

    What do you guys think?
