Interesting trivia about #9 (record LEGO image)...

The grey-scale center portion of the image was built by Eric Harshbarger, a great LEGO artist, who sadly is doing very little building anymore.

Eric's work was a major influence in pulling me out of my dark age and back into building.

See his post about this mosaic here...
