I didn’t take note of my specific settings, but it involved selecting a few new colours and increasing the number of available elements for each colour.
With very little effort in manipulating the options, I was able to achieve the below outcome. Once you upload an image, you’re presented with a few options. Its superpower is its simplicity and efficiency. When you visit the website, the screen below is all you get on the landing page.
Loading images into Lego Art Remix is a no brainer. Test Subject 1: Mario – a cartoon character with strong bright colours. Who better to select than Mario himself? I googled a character image and picked a decent looking version, which I then cropped at the shoulders to give a nice portrait. Part 1: Hands-on experience with Lego Art Remixįor my first quick and dirty attempt, I wanted to start with something simple and recognisable. Many fans who want mosaic wall art want things easy, and Lego Art Remix is that simplicity customised to your own images instead of being stuck to what LEGO provides. There’s clear interest in this market, with LEGO’s own release of the LEGO Art line garnering broad interest among fans. Casual fans just want to build with as little effort re-designing as possible, and this lowers the barrier for them to get started quickly on creating a custom mosaic artwork. But the LEGO Art Remix takes away a huge portion of the work needed, only leaving you to fine-tune a little if you wish. I know at the outset that virtually all custom LEGO mosaic creations will require some amount of tweaking eventually. What’s I’m hoping to do here is explore how to get to a presentable and decipherable mosaic in the shortest amount of time possible, from image upload through to knowing which pieces to order on Bricklink. LEGO fans have been making them for decades, and official sets have been around even longer (Read a brief history in our review of LEGO Art 31199 Iron Man). Mosaic creations using LEGO studs and plates are not something new.
The latest results output close to a finished mosaic design that you can immediately start building within minutes if you had the parts on hand. I’ve had some hands-on time with it from the first release and to its current final form, and it’s only gotten better. With his background in Computer Science, Deb coded the foundation of the LEGO Art Remix tool in about 5 hours, though he’s spent a bit more time refining it since then. We took some time to talk to Creator Deb Banerji about the project. One of the tools Chris used, LEGO Art Remix, was an essential step towards getting to the finished product. Recently TBB’s Chris Doyle shared with us his journey of creating a custom LEGO Art mosaic.
