Batman!

Batman seems to be everywhere, these days.  First, here are a few Batman mosaics.  Josh Wedin and Dave Ware made very similar ones; one main difference is that Josh's mosaic has the studs pointing to the right, and Dave's has them pointing up (towards the head).  The changing orientation makes slight differences in how the mosaic turned out.  I notice differences especially in the lettering, and also in the face.

Batman was also hanging out around BrickCon this year, too.  Here's half a Batman mosaic, hanging out next to the Super Friends Hall of Justice, made by VicLUG's Ryan Willougby:

Over in the Art/Mosaic/Sculpture section, Bruce Lowell won an award for this 3-D Batman mosaic.  The colors and shapes make for quite the brooding ambience.

One of the highlights at BrickCon this year was this amazing Bat Cave, by Wayne Hussey and Carlyle Livingston.  It's not really a mosaic (though I see some yellow lines we could pretend are mosaics, if anyone wanted to be picky about it), but -- wow!

And lastly, here is a photo of the new upcoming LEGO set, Arkham Asylum.  Once again, not very mosaicky, but look!  Stained glass windows!  And gargoyles too!  (Though, sadly, not the peeing kind.)

Proving His Mosaicky Worth

Josh Wedin (floodllama) created this mosaic of Doc Brown from the Back to the Future movies.  I really love how it captures the slightly crazed look of the character:

He says it will be part of SEALUG's display at the Emerald City Comicon next month, where he hopes to get it autographed by Christopher Lloyd himself.

Josh also made this mosaic of Pinky and the Brain to take to the con:

Pondering

He claims he still has a bit of tweaking to do on it, but it looks pretty good as is.  The voice talent for both of these characters will also be at the con, and Josh hopes to get this mosaic signed by them, too.  I guess it will be a measure of his mousey worth to see if he can.
