Thanks, everyone. It was supposed to be a scary / scared looking guy (no mask) holding a yoyo getting ready to throw. I took some selfies so I’d get the hand and yoyo correctly. I forgot all about it! I think I’ll start working on that today! Thank you for the kind words. ---

It’s just a different medium. Guitar, trumpet…they both make music. ---

Okay then. So last week a colleague of mine started posting classic album covers made from Lego bricks to his Facebook page. I realized pretty quickly that they were CG and I felt that it should be pretty easy to do the same thing myself (using my own techniques). Here’s an example that I rendered last night: ![lego_boston](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/3/3/2332d5104a288f051801dbb7700ab88c632358e2.jpeg) I feel his were more beautifully rendered than this, but I still think mine come out fairly nice. ---

I can not tell if that is real or CG. I seriously doubt you have all those Lego pieces so it must be CG. That’s awesome! And that shows it could be done with actual lego pieces if someone had the colors in those small pieces. I only had the second Boston album. That looks too real to be CG… ---

Anyone here who can identify this album cover or that even knows what an album cover is - is OLD. Maybe not everyone. This record came out when I was in 5th grade. Nice job on this! ---
