3-d Nes Pixel block stained glass
Hard to beilive I made this 6 years ago already! Time flies when your collecting Just thought Id bump this thread once a year on its creation date to share it with new members.
( original post )
Finally I am done...
around 5700 pixel blocks and 1.5 months later. this was the all time labour of love and extreme frustration ( still frustrating because I cannot seam to get a good picture....). It all started in the back of a Nintendo Power issue like a year ago. They had made Mega Man and Airman along with some other characters out of pixel blocks. they looked wicked in the light i thought, so about a month and a half ago i finally got 2400 blocks. then I made Mega Man then sadly I found that i ran out of black and most of the blues. so i ordered 4000 more lol. Just kept building after that until this was made. I was inspired by the 25th birthday of the nes and the upcoming 3Ds, so that is why I build it in layers to give it a "3-d" effect. I had always wanted to make a stained glass window since going to europe the first time 4 years ago. Seeing the stain glass windows in cathedrals was my favorite thing to do after a few pints of cider. I custom fit it to the top shelf of my gameshelf. I strung 2 sets of battery power xmas led lights behind it . Pics dont do it justice. heres some of the better ones i guess i have like 100 pics in my photobucket folder.

On the puzzlezoo site:
I added the fantasy set to cart, but then was closing the window before purchasing and it popped up a message that said you could get up to a $14.99 discount on the fantasy set by applying the coupon code "HUGE" - cool!
If by some act of a small miracle you ever do get a straight on image with good lighting that's level and balanced I'd so make that the new background on my widescreen laptop, static (I tend to let stuff rotate though artist release castlevania 1 box/label art is up for halloween now.)
"Holy Mary mother of God..."
I've use the little beads that you iron together to make sprites before(forget the actual name), but I like the way these look.
are they all separate pieces (the figures, not the blocks), or are mounted in a big wall-like piece? It'd be great to see each part individually.
the figures are separate for the back ground. the back ground is also layered
Amazing. You are a legend.
