Pharaoh's Breastplate - Brick Badge Contest Entry by Mohamed Marei, on Flickr
Inspired by one of the treasures of King Tutenkhamen , I wanted to create a name badge which was unique and celebrated my Egyptian heritage and culture.
Having built several Egyptian-themed MOCs over the years (and being the only Egyptian MOCist - as far as I'm aware) I wanted my name badge to be unmistakably Pharaonic, embellished with gold and bright translucent colors aplenty. I took massive inspiration from this photo, with no intention to replicate the design fully.
Having never attended a convention, I used the red 1x8 smooth plate as a stand-in for a badge. Hope this is alright, rules-wise!
Hope you guys enjoy this quick build, which was whipped up over the course of Sunday afternoon.
Stay tuned for more #content coming soon!
