lego art bonanza

I LOVE pixel art and I LOVE Lego and today I came upon a site with the perfect merge of the two! Brickworkz.com is where we find Brian Korte’s absolutely stunning Lego art. Besides browsing the gallery you can actually order your own images err… Lego-ified (?) XD

Here’s a beautiful piece I could just take home to have for myself!

And here’s Yoda! ^-^

end-of-semester-stress

In Swedish semester means holiday/vacation and in English it’s a schoolterm. It’s the English meaning I’m referring to here. I’m looking forward to haveing a little bit of vacation soon. School is crazy at the end of every term – and that’s why I haven’t been writing for a while. I have been creating though! ;P
   As I mentioned before it’s been a month full of celebrations and I have one more home made card to show you! ;)

This is the birthday card I made for a little guy called Sebastian who turned 1 year in the beginning of May.
It plainly says “1 year”.

This is not all I’ve been doing though! ;) I haven’t had time to to as much as I have wanted. But I have managed to make the four last images for the ceramic project with Ulrika. *Yay* I have also managed to promise a friend to attend a LARP night this summer and make the clothes needed for him – as I at the same time got the inspiration for a new outfit for myself (I already had a great few). I thought it best to start right away with my own outfit since it would probably take much longer – since it’s a kind of corset I’m making… XD

Corset pattern

This is a pattern for a Elizabethan corset that I’m modifying to look more Rococo/Baroque. I got the basic pattern at a most formidable site called Elizabethan Costuming Page. I have made a corset almost like the one I’m making now loooong time ago, and it looks something like this:

Gosh, that is an old photograph of me, hehe ^^;
   I’ve also made some sketches, taken some photos, made some jewellry and finishes some unfinishes stuff. More on that later during the day! Check back in!
