The Beginning of the Story: Building the Giant Mosaic Wall

This was one part of the building we were really keen to make work.... even if it meant a far bit of effort! We all contributed in the building of it in some  way, whether it be the prim rotating, or the prim leveling... or the coloured glass stretched to fit every gap (it was pretty time consuming in all honesty but when you want something enough). It was inspired by a mixture of ideas, with the colour (and ongoing colour scheme) inspired from an article in my journal 'AA Files'. There was a big three page full colour spread full of colourful images and crazy shapes... hopefully the inspiration shown through! Here are just a few photos of it coming together.

First step: Fitting the glass panels into the wall! This involved manipulating other prims (normally pyramids or prisms), flattening them down, stretching them out to fot the gaps.... and some more :P

Later on: Evening the prims! This is near the end, so probably feeling pretty happy at this point
The  finished result! Worth it :)
