cylonchaney Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Any of our talented Multiverse artists interested in developing a face decal that resembles Lance Henriksen? If you provide me with one, I will in return send you this 3d printed Minimate-like (but not a Minimate) block figure Bishop custom, completed. He's not bad except the hair piece. Too hard to do anything but the most basic with the tool I use. Minimate hair should fit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cylonchaney Posted July 14 Author Share Posted July 14 In my continuing quest for a clean Bishiop, I bought a cheap drawing tablet and basically tried to trace over a photo of "Soiled Bishop". It actually came out not too bad considering it was the very first thing I tried after unboxing the tablet. Still too ugly to post a pic though. Also, he's got kind of a surprised expression. "I don' remember having an Alien tail poking though my chest yesterday. Hmm." I think with a little more experience, I should be able to make something half decent looking. However, my offer is still open and I'm open to negotiations. Anything in my 3d printed collection is potentially on the table and I've got a decent MIB collection as well. I'm not going to inventory but I've got all Trek and BSG mates in package, and a bunch of older Marvel stuff. I would have thought a 1:1 scale mate-like 3d printed block figure would have been of more interest. But anything for that Bishop face. 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimateship Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 i thought that's what you were up to! I had to double-check that we never got a clean bishop and got sidetracked but so so glad to see your efforts! 'soiled Bishop' indeed, poor bloke took a bashing i don't think i'll be much help with bishopsheadmate, yet (maybe i'll try a hand), just an excited party checking in!

cylonchaney Posted August 18 Author Share Posted August 18 Just to follow up on this. Dave kindly took me up on the offer and created a Bishop face for me. I used my technique of printing on clear sticker paper and painting the backside of the eyes white. It didnt\'t come out great. I'll post a photo once I get a chance to print on white sticker paper. Thanks Dave! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimateship Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Thanks for the follow-up cylonchaney, glad to hear someone helped out! Your customising efforts are always so interesting and I look forward to a clean Bishop draft you're ready to let face the world 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cylonchaney Posted September 16 Author Share Posted September 16 A further follow up. I still have not printed a nice version of Dave's Bishop face. In the meantime, continuing to learn the tools I'm working with, I came up with a better rip off of DST's face. You can see my workflow below. Once I've got a full sheet worth of stuff to print, I'll have a face off. Dave's vs. my traced version vs. this version. Also, Hail Ivan! The starting photo is from minimatedatabase.

Tribble_WC Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Between your 3D models and now decals, you sir are doing the lord's (dst's) work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cylonchaney Posted September 19 Author Share Posted September 19 I made some extra heads and printed off a few versions. Interested to see if anyone has a favourite. Each of these is unique though they will look similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 I think I like the third from last one the best. The third one is my second favorite, although he looks so sad in that one. Like he just found out Newt didn't make it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribble_WC Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 I feel like #2 and #7 are the best of the bunch. But that's me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 I was gonna say #8 I dig the stoic look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
