Powercoin extends its Micromosaic Passion, and Cyborg Revolution series with five classic ladies and an angry doggy Along with their Micropuzzle Treasure series, Micromosaic Passion was an interesting concept whereby finely struck lines, in conjunction with high-quality colour, gave the impression the image was built up of smaller pieces.
