Each piece we create is the result of genuine passion. Nothing is left to chance. Behind every image lies meticulous research, precise testing, and careful staging to transform a LEGO® Technic set into a high-end work of wall art.
Our approach is based on a simple idea: to enhance the mechanical precision and iconic design of LEGO® Technic models through a comprehensive artistic and technical approach.
1. The search for the ideal model
It all starts with selecting the LEGO® model we want to highlight.
Every choice is deliberate: design, symbolism, color palette and history of the real vehicle.
We study the sets available on the market and select those that best embody the essence of automotive design and LEGO® Technic engineering — icons such as the Bugatti Chiron, the Ferrari F1, the McLaren, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS or the legendary Concorde.
Once the model is chosen, we analyze its identity: its lines, its dominant colors, its technical DNA.
This step allows us to imagine the visual and artistic tone of the future painting before even opening the LEGO® box.
2. Building the LEGO® model
To understand and capture a set in its purest truth, you have to build it.
We assemble each model ourselves, piece by piece.
This step is essential: it allows us to understand the LEGO® Technic design logic , the volumes, textures and interactions between the elements.
By manipulating the model, we identify the most dynamic angles, interesting reflections, and areas that will attract attention once illuminated.
Each assembly becomes an immersion in the LEGO® universe, where mechanics meet art.
3. Study of the colors and history of the model
Before we get to the photography, we dive into the history of the real-life vehicle that inspired the LEGO® set.
We study the brand, the original model, its design philosophy and its iconic colors.
This research directly influences our visual work.
For example :
-
the Ferrari F1 requires a deep red and intense light reflections,
-
The Bugatti Chiron calls for a powerful contrast between blue and black.
-
The Porsche 911 GT3 RS stands out with its vibrant orange color and sporty lines.
-
McLaren plays on the tension between elegance and aggression.
These elements guide us in creating an atmosphere faithful to the spirit of the model, while offering an original artistic vision.
4. Print and frame tests
Once the photograph is taken, the most technical phase begins: the printing and framing tests .
We test different printing media: canvases, plexiglass, photo paper, but especially brushed or glossy aluminum — our material of choice.
The goal is to achieve the best possible result in terms of color, contrast, and depth .
Each image is printed in several versions, compared under different lights and analyzed to choose the medium that will best showcase the LEGO® Technic model.
Next, we conduct frame tests:
-
matte black aluminum for a minimalist look,
-
Silver or white aluminum for bright interiors
-
Customized finishes for certain exclusive collections.
The frame is not a simple outline: it is an extension of the design , an element that contributes to the overall balance of the work.
5. The attachment and integration tests of the LEGO® set
Some creations are accompanied by a scene with the LEGO® set itself.
We then carry out tests of attachment and presentation , so that the model and the painting respond to each other harmoniously.
We are studying the ideal distance between the set and the visual, possible reflections, and light interactions.
These tests guarantee perfect aesthetic consistency , whether for an exhibition, a shop window or a collector's wall.
6. The final photoshoot: capturing the emotion
Once all the tests have been validated, we move on to the final phase: the professional photoshoot .
This is the moment when the LEGO® Technic model truly becomes a work of art.
We work with natural and artificial light, background, contrasts, and perspective.
Each photograph is designed to capture the power, speed and personality of the vehicle , while respecting the LEGO® DNA.
The result: an image of exceptional precision, which captures both the technique and the emotion.
7. From photograph to artwork
The final step is to transform this image into a finished painting:
-
High-definition printing on aluminum.
-
custom framing,
-
Manual quality control on each piece.
Each painting is then carefully packaged and protected, ready to join the collection of its future owner.
A handcrafted and passionate approach
This long and meticulous process is at the heart of our philosophy.
We don't just sell prints: we create works inspired by LEGO® Technic design, performance and engineering .
Each painting is the result of research, expertise, and a demand for perfection.
It is this artisanal, precise and passionate approach that makes our creations much more than a decoration: a true visual experience.
How long does it take to create a LEGO® Technic picture?
Each creation requires several weeks of work: model research, construction, visual study, print tests and final photoshoot. It's a precise, artisanal process.
Why build the LEGO® model yourself?
Assembling the LEGO® Technic set allows you to understand its structure, lines, and reflections. This ensures a faithful and aesthetically pleasing representation of the model in the final picture.
What materials are used for LEGO® Technic sets?
We prefer printing on brushed or polished aluminum for a high-end, durable, and vibrant finish. The frame is also made of aluminum, primarily black.
Are LEGO® paintings handmade?
Yes, each painting is designed, printed and framed manually with quality control at every stage, guaranteeing a perfect finish and a unique work of art.
Can you order a custom-made LEGO® Technic picture?
We also create custom paintings according to the desired model, format, and style. Each request is carefully considered to provide a bespoke result.
