eclipse Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 I give you Storm Shadow one of my favrite Ninjas of all time,he has been a labor of love to me it took a little of everything to make him and of course few weeks.I know the symbol on his wrist is inaccurate but he is a custom right!I felt it just set him off.Thank you Luke for the ninja decal set it made for the perfect storm shadow.I tryed to get a pic of his symbol on his pack but it turned out a little blurry sorry for thats.know ill let the pictures do the talking.As always comments are welcome and appriciated to the fullest extent thanks for looking!!

Bob Harris Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Oh man, great work! I LOVE the details, like the little ninja stars on the belt! Very cool! And for accuracy, it's just like you said: if you like him to look like this, this is how he should look like! Samll request: can you give us a shot of his back, I' love to see how all the equipment is attached there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 He looks awesome! And I second the request for the back shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Very neat. Are the quiver/sheaths/swords taken from the 25th Anniversary version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 karamazov80 you nailed it all of his pack and belt cut long way is from the 25th,exept the small sword and sheeth is from movie version deadpool,alot of cutting and splicing to make this guy. Again sorry the first pick was blurry this is much better,the bow i have just been slinging over the pack or keeping in his hand,eventually i have to find nunchucks,the storm shadow i used did not come with any but i figure ill run across some eventually!!Thanks guys for the comments it means alot!!

Mystery Man Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Whoa man, that's looks fantastic! I can't imagine a cooler lookin' one comin' outta DST if I tried. The quiver looks spot on, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 I Loved this show as a kid,Just rewatched it with my wife recently before the new reboot V and I must say the plot still stands up today,still was fun to watch so I knew I had to make a minimate visitor and here he is!!!

That's so cool. I can't say that I would buy a whole set of "V" minimates (too many civilians), but I would definitely want one like what you made. You kinda encompassed the whole idea of the series in that one little minimate. It's great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 That is awesome! The reptilian design is spot on! I'm impressed at how well you've captured the look of the 80's series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Love the V guy, one thought though... How about a full on lizard head, with two J. Jonah Jameson masks, one painted full, and one with a hole cut out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 Here Is ButterBall and Chatterer from one of my favrite set of horror movies ButterBall and Chatterer.these are the first two and more on the way for sure!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Appropriately disgusting. I'd recommend using a Blob piece for Butterball's chest, however a decal would be out of the picture then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd recommend using a Blob piece for Butterball's chest, however a decal would be out of the picture then... thats funny i was going to and that was my issue when i tryed it looked terrable when it was on the chest,Im going to try to enlarge the decal next round a little more and see what happens with that so it will work around the grooves of blobs chest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Very nice work! I have always wanted to make these guys, and its great to see them in minimate form! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Very nice! I really like the juxtaposition of disgusting horror characters in cutesy Minimate form. DST should really get on the ball and get us some serious horror-Mates. The Silence of the Lambs set wasn't a fair gauge of the potential success of these figures in my opinion, because they weren't visually very exciting beyond the single Hannibal with the mask. Put a Jason, Leatherface, or Pinhead out there, and people will buy, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your right they would sell real well if they made the right ones,horror has a huge audiance and so does the minimate world you combine the two I think its a win win for sure thanks guys for all the positive comments and the ideas that are thrown at me i love new ideas and opinions!!

karamazov80 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Outback is one of the few post-1986 Joes that were worth a damn, in my opinion. Great job with him! Can't wait to see what else you come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urban Saboteur Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 WOAH! *applauds* awesome work with the Siegies! Very cool. I always wondered what Crimson Guard would look like in a Minimate form. I hope Hasbro realises how awesome Minimates are and do some kind of deal with DST to release a set of Minimates. two 4 packs would be cool! One Joe One Cobra. What parts did you use for the Crimson Guard? you've done a really good job on these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
