I haven't been blogging or commenting much lately because I haven't
really had the energy to . I've actually been kind of ill for the last
couple of weeks. It's not a pity post, but I do feel I'm going a little
mad from frustration. I said to my boss the other day that I feel like a
hypochondriac with all these different ailments, but largely the worst
of which is that they are contributing to insomnia and I've been
having a lot of trouble sleeping lately which means I've had to retain
all my energy for work and then collapse. I really want to be blogging
and reading everyone's posts and admiring amazing outfits, but I find
my level of consciousness more suited to idle Tumblr scrolling and
self-pity.
Howver! Tis evening something actually
inspired me. I came in at half 7 and spent the next 2 hours (literally)
making these beauties. It's crazy that it took me so long but I have
Lego all over the house and had to hunt across shelves and in boxes and
on top of picture displays to find all the parts. But then I felt a
sense of true creative happiness in the creation of Orphan Black Lego.
Behold.
There's Kira, Dr Leekie, Paul, Rachel, Delphine, Cosima, Cal, Sarah, Felix, Alison, Donnie, Art, Mrs S, Tomas |
"I just want to make crazy science with you." |
Felix, Alison and Sarah. Chilling. |
Heehee. She has the 'Top Secret Plan' card from the Lego Movie set. *is proud* |
Felix, Sarah & Mrs. S. Don't mess with their family. |
Ok so it's not all right. Yes, Rachel actually has blonde hair. I only had a red bob, and it seems like a style she could have. Sarah's hood is green and doesn't match her jacket, but that's the only one I got, and Helena's hair just aint got her wild roots and weird look. But please don't get all purist on my ass - or do, and then buy me the extra Lego I want! Hahah.
Also if you are interested some of the people who were decapitated or destroyed in the making of my clones include: a Lego move robot, a fisherman, a tennis player, a vampire, all my scientists, a zombie, a thief, a Lord of the Rings elf, Robin of Batman & Marilyn Monroe, a vampire slayer and a surprising amount of Lego men in suits.
What do you think?
That's pretty awesome!!
ReplyDeleteThe more I look at it, the more brilliantly recreated it becomes! Your creative attention to detail is very absorbing.
ReplyDeleteI do hope that the continuing ailments and insomnia are fading.
