TOP of BigBang Micrography

Where do I even begin?

T.O.P. was one of the first KPop idols I ever admired. So after getting the idea from a school project I decided to go ahead and make a huge 15inx20in micrographic poster of this lovely man as a tribute using his lines from Fantastic Baby.

It was quite the undertaking.

The first three weeks I spent about 3.5 hours a day, 5 days a week, working diligently and skipping many lunches. After 3 weeks of intense work I was barely halfway done and spent the next few weeks goofing off and working on him here and there.

It took one final push but I finished my crowning achievement!

I am extremely proud of myself for accomplishing this.

However, I know it's far from perfect.

I was lazy with the ring and it turned out mediocre and I also feel that I could have spent more time on T.O.P.'s hair to make it more realistic, using more varying colors and font sizes to give a better illusion of depth. Also his coat didn't turn out quite how I expected it to, the red didn't show up nearly enough to make it pop like how I imagined it would.

Maybe at some point in the future I will go back and fix the mishaps, but as for now I am more than satisfied.

I hope my fellow KPop, Big Bang, and T.O.P. fans can receive as much joy from this as I do! <3
