Hapori Tohu Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Blog Assistant Nukaya has shown her artistic side through high-quality photography on her blog and amazing LEGO statues and sculptures for conventions. Recently she brought out her acrylic paints after a two year painting break and painted Benny, the spaceship-loving Classic Space character from The LEGO Movie. Be sure to check out the piece of art on the forums, but you will not be able to get this for yourself. That is because at BrickFair VA this past weekend she donated it to the Charity Auction for the SladeChild Foundation, where it sold for $2,000 and was the highest-bid auction item of the weekend. Way to go, Nukaya! View the full article 2 Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatanui Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 (edited) Both the picture itself and the fact that it sold for so much are fantastic. Congratulations, Nukaya! Also, I find it really ironic that the news story about Benny's picture was posted by Benjamin. -Gata Edited August 4, 2014 by Gatanui Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks!

Lyichir Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Being there while the bids kept escalating felt amazing. Everyone in the BZPower delegation was freaking out. It was awesome.

Toaraga Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Also, I find it really ironic that the news story about Benny's picture was posted by Benjamin. Coincidence, not irony. $2000 for a piece of artwork.
