I can’t cope

Lots of colours is hard work! @MissGremlin The actual part of Jett is quite a few colours as well. There is 9 different colours just in his black part! At least there is more of them so it’s not as bad as one dot in different places!

Does the sparkly ones show up in a photo? I’m so keen to see it. 25 colours is a lot for you ones isn’t it?

Hahaha. You might get it done today and I won’t even get this section completed! Mine take sooooo long but I wouldn’t change them. It’s going to look good.

@Captain24 it can definitely be more work but at least there's more of them. Haha oh gees 9 colours just in Jett's black part 😂.

Here's a pic, you can see them. Not in the best lighting and not where I usually take the pics of them. 25 is a few more than some of the ones I've done.

They take a long time because they have so much detail, but they look absolutely amazing when they're finished. All good things take time 😂.

That’s so cool!! I love it! @MissGremlin. It’ll be one of those ones that you are really proud of when you finish. It’ll make you smile!!😃

You will definitely have to post it when it’s finished. I don’t know where that thread is and it doesn’t seem as if my tags are working properly. If it’s one tag it worked but if there is 2 different tags it doesn’t.

You would think black would be so hard! The dots are pretty scattered in it but at least there is heaps that are together.

I like having lots of colours, definitely more detail. But they all blend in in the end and look amazing

@Captain24 it's definitely going to look good and it's something different. The sparkles make it shine.

I'll see if I can find that thread and post my last diamond art, not sure if the tags will work though so we'll give it a shot. You can let me know if you get it.

The only time I reckon black is hard is when the letters/numbers are similar but if they aren't then it's usually ok.

Having lots of colours is cool and it really helps to see the picture start coming together as you're doing it.

The black colours are similar but the letters and numbers are pretty different. Can’t say the same about the grass though. 5 and S are similar colours and there is a few that are the same and most of the grass is pretty much the same colour. The grass is coming together though. It was a big effort to start it but now it’s coming together it’s makes it more visual and feels better @MissGremlin

That would be good. I’ve really missed a lot of stuff in here and notifications don’t show if someone else as comment in a thread but you weren’t tagged. I hope you get what I mean.

It’s really positive to see it coming together. It’s a glimmer! Just seeing all the work you have put in makes an awesome picture.

Just doing this with you is my glimmer for the day

@Captain24 yes, 5 and S can be hard, also B and 8 or E and F. It's so good to see it come together, can understand the grass being a big effort to start but once it gets going it becomes easier.

I've tagged you, so we'll see if it works. I'll tag you separately in a bit if it doesn't come through.

Awww I'm so glad, it's also my glimmer for the day. I've missed being able to do it with you and connect while we do ☺️.

Also V and Y especially when they are the same colour green! @MissGremlin

The tag didn’t come through. Maybe that’s why the people I tagged on here haven’t responded, if they are even back yet.

I didn’t realise how much the forums meant to me or how much connection we have until it couldn’t be done. I thought it would be a while before we could do this together but they got it done quick and now we can!

This always makes me feel a little better. Also just because we just chat about stuff.

When you are searching through your dots and some of the letters and numbers that are together it reminds you of stuff? The one I did of Keiko had words in it. Like mum and heaps of others. I just came across cap! I’ve had my initials. My primary school classes. Or I associate them with stuff. Or am I just weird?

@Captain24 yes V and Y are another one, it's even worse when they're so similar in colour!

That's very possible, hoping that can get it sorted soon. I'll tag you separately after this post.

I don't think alot us realised just how special and how much we need this space, having connection to people is everything.

I love being able to chat about random things, when things are lighter cos we're doing diamond art together and just chatting about whatever comes up.

Haha oh good, it's not just me 😂. I currently have my sons initials on this one, I've had naughty words too, it always makes me laugh. Maybe we could take pictures of the words we find and share them 😂. But nope it's definitely not just you.

I don’t think many of us realised until we couldn’t do it anymore! Or how much it would affect us. @MissGremlin. Having it working has change things a little bit for me.

I think the random chat makes it feel lighter as well. Just simple stuff. Just actual connection. Have you restarted your Lego with Nightfury?

I’m glad you get it! I just thought I was strange. My brain does work in unusual ways though. I did also say to the washing machine ‘I’m coming’ when it finished the load! See strange! 😂 I did laugh at myself though.

@Captain24 yes when it was gone or hard to navigate we all struggled so much. But having it working makes a difference, just being able to have connection again makes things feel a bit better.

Haven't yet, but we did talk about maybe doing some over the weekend if we both feel up to it.

Haha oh I know I'm strange and the way our brains work are different. My microwave beeps several times if I don't take whatever is in there out straight away, I'm always like 'yeah yeah I'm getting there' or i tell it to have patience 😂.
