Discover the amazing LEGO® Art mosaics
22 July 2020
LEGO® has recently launched a new product category: LEGO® Art, or LEGO® artworks. This summer 4 official LEGO® Art sets will be for sale. In this article we will also explain how you can build your own amazing LEGO® artwork.
LEGO® Pop Art
The first 4 works of art are pop art paintings. Check them out below.
LEGO® 31197 Andy Warhol’s Marilyn Monroe
This Andy Warhol classic can be built in 4 different color variations as shown in the picture above.
LEGO® 31198 The Beatles
You can also build The Beatles in 4 different ways, one for every Beatle.
LEGO® 31199 Marvel Studios Iron Man
With the parts in 31199 you can create 3 different versions of Iron Man.
LEGO® 31200 Star Wars Sith
You can also build 3 cool dark versions of sith with LEGO® 31200.
The LEGO® mosaic artworks are 48 by 48 studs. You will also find some new parts with these sets, such as a large brick separator. The LEGO® Art sets have a suggested retail price of € 120 and contain 2900 or 3400 parts. If you want to put all 4 Beatles on the wall, this will cost € 480. You can also build some sort of super mosaic from all parts of 3 Iron Man or the 3 Sith sets, as you can see below.
Each mosaic is built on 9 new 16x16 base plates that are one third higher than a standard LEGO® brick. They can firmly connect them with the supplied Technic pins. You will also find a new part in the kit to hang the artwork.
Building a LEGO® Art set resembles a (difficult) puzzle and for that a LEGO® podcast will be released in which you will learn more about the artwork. You can listen to this while you are building your construction. LEGO® Art is another great addition for the adult LEGO® fan (AFOL).
Do you want to design and build a LEGO® artwork yourself? Then use the free Lunapic editor. In the article about how to design your own brick sketch you can read exactly how to turn a photo into a LEGO® image. You can then recreate the LEGO® image with LEGO® bricks. You may already have part of the parts yourself, otherwise you will find them in your favourite LEGO® webshop for loose parts and minifigures.
