A picture-perfect portrait parody

If you were going to take set 31213 Mona Lisa and turn it into anything else, what better subject than the artist known for taking someone else’s art and turning it into something else? And that’s what Trevor Pearson-Jones has done with this fabulous rendering of the king of parodies, “Weird Al” Yankovic. Trevor has made fantastic use of tiles and wedges to capture Al’s trademark curly locks and wardrobe. And he’s set a few piano keys into the frame as a nod to Al’s musical career. Not to mention that two accordions flying over Al’s shoulders, one with angel’s wings and one with a demon’s. I imagine the angel accordion is all, “Make this song about food” and the demon accordion is like, “No, make this song about reality TV.”

“You’ve got red on you.”

Monty Python may be the first thing you think of when someone says ‘British comedy’, but for sheer pop-culture points, I reckon Edgar Wright’s Cornetto trilogy is not far behind. What makes me say that? Why, Trevor Pearson‘s LEGO Shaun of the Dead bust! This is, of course, the titular Shaun, the everyman appliance salesman turned zombie fighter played by Simon Pegg. Rather than realism, Trevor has gone for more of a caricature here, and it really works well. The hair is great, both the spiky rock-piece top and pointy beard, really emphasising the shape of Shaun’s head. All that’s missing is a bloody cricket bat… Or a red Strawberry Cornetto.

Trevor seems to have ghouls and giggles on his mind this Halloween season, as we also loved his Crypt Keeper tribute.
