Here's John Constantine:

Wonder Girl (Cassandra Sandsmark):

This would have made a good 2 pack:

Guardian:

Captain Britain:

Black Bolt:

Xtreme Bishop:

Xtreme Rogue:

Awesome, as always.

Only time for two today:

Spawn:

Psylocke as she joined the X-Men:

By the way... just noticed the cool sunfire...... What was that from?

The second costume of Sunfire was introduced in "The Age of Apocolypse" storyline in the mid-nineties. Recently the Sunfire of the regular marvel universe started wearing it after he became a horseman of Apocolypse. The first costume is his classic one. I hated the samurai type costume he wore in the early nineties so I would be happy with either of the two that I showed here. We need him & Banshee to make the X-Men classic box set complete.

Today, I did a few X-Men:

Forge:

Storm in her X-treme outfit:

And both versions of Sunfire...to be a minor character he has the most kick-ass costumes!:

Now for something completey different. Personally, I'm sick of hearing about girls going apesh@t over that green dress that Kiera Knightly wore in Atonement. But, it got me to thinking that something like that woyld certainly appeal to girls, and it would make a new civvie for us so I decided to design one. I think Jean Grey or Mary Jane would look great in this.

For today's designs first up I have the New Avengers,

Patriot:

Hulkling:

His main squeeze, Wiccan:

and the Kate Bishop Hawkeye:

Then I did Ares... I haven't read Mighty Avengers...Is this guy pretty cool?

The first costume Rogue wore:

Finally...another Storm. She's my fave so you have to expect a lot of her. This was the costume she wore when Arkon abducted her. Talk about hair! this minimate would probably fall over without a foot peg.

Very nice customs!

My final Blade Runner 'mate, Gaff:

My final Watchmen - Rorshach & Silk Spectre:

Retro Gals - 70's Supergirl, Golden Age Wonder Woman, Marvel Girl:

80's Colossus and Magik:

The robot Maria from the 1927 movie "Metropolis"

Finally, Electro!

Sorry to resurrect a old thread...but I wanted to show all my Blade Runner designs on one sheet. Most of these I posted in the Customs and Art section...but this pic shows them all together and I even made a little logo for them. How cool would this line be?

I'm jealous of the people that bought these! This set looks really good...but with all of the other minimates coming out this year, I'm going to have to make some tough choices, and I still can't decide what will get cut. I already have a Kirk, 2 Spocks, and Uhura. I don't have a Scotty, McCoy, Sulu, or Checkov yet, though (but they're so plain next to these alternate versions) decisions....decisions....

ZZZZZ.....ZZZZZ

Huh?! Oh, cooking show minimates.

ZZZZZ....ZZZZZZ

Time for today's designs which are :

Ozymandias...I have to laugh...I kinda threw Bubastis together....

The rest is the cast of Blade Runner (now I only have to do Gaff and I'm finished)

Pris - "standard pleasure model" Where can I get one?

Rachael - I included the Voight-Kampff machine

Dr. Tyrell

Leon- I couldn't exactly remember his outfit clearly

Here's the other Zhora in her stripper outfit:

Comedian from the Watchmen (I saw the trailer for the movie this weekend...Can't wait!)

Grifter:

Pulsar- Photon - Captain Marvel - why do they keep changing her name

Wow! I don't think the official Wasp looks any better than your custom. Great costume choice. Where are the wings from?

Oh! I just noticed Sunfire sitting there...nice start!

You should do the whole cast of Watchmen

I probably will...in fact, The next design is of Zhora from Blade Runner, who has a transparent raincoat which helped me practice for the transparent fabric on Silk Spectre's costume. Was anybody else slightly traumatized like me as a kid to see Harrison Ford shoot an unarmed woman in the back? By the way, Zhora was played by the beautiful Joanna Cassidy. She was in a lot of TV movies in the 70's and also in a famous Smokey the Bear commercial. Recently she played Brenda's bitchy mom on Six Feet Under.

I will definitely be using some of these designs for future customs. Nice work!

I look foward to seeing them!

I decided to do the rest of the Legion of Superheroes. All of these and the members I previously posted are from around the time of The Great Darkness Saga, which I always thought was the height of the LSH's popularity...therefore, I haven't included earlier members such as Ferro Lad and Chemical King, or later characters such as Tellus or Quislet.

The Following members are:

Mon-El

Star Boy

Karate Kid

Dawnstar

Shrinking Violet

Invisible Kid

Ultra Boy

Phantom Girl

Element Lad

Lightning Lad

Saturn Girl

Light Lass

Projectra

White Witch

Blok

Ok...Here's today's designs...

First, Nite Owl from the Watchmen (comic version)

Next, Queen Amidala, who took forever!:

Huntress:

Green Lantern (Kyle):

Cosmic Boy of the LSH:

The beautiful Dream Girl of the LSH:

Zealot: I think this design is my personal favorite so far.

Boba Fett!

Red Arrow:

They all look incredible! I can't pick out a favorite! :biggrin:

Maybe it's because mini-figures like Minimates don't take up much space (or maybe, just maybe, it is my huge bias toward block figures generally), but I think that large, colorful teams really work better with these figures than they do with larger figures (like 6 inchers). My Avengers, X-Men, and Justice League look fantastic displayed together. As such, I was really, really hoping for a fuller JSA, Teen Titans, and Legion of Super Heroes from DST. Your custom designs make me weep for what might have been, Chaz.

Yeah, I know....I just have to face the facts that the Legion just isn't as popular as when I was growing up and will probably never see toy form. I thought minimates would be the perfect niche for them. I think most of the minimate collectors have one thing in common, and that's a love for uniformity in their collections. I was so tired of the alternating scales in the larger figures making my collection look odd that I just gave up on them. It's nice to see specific guidelines in a toy line...but the clincher is all the different company liscenses (like Mego in the 70's) in the same format. As you guys can tell by my designs...my tastes are all over the place.

Thanks, man! Are you ready for some more? These are really fun to do.

Chameleon Boy:

For my 50th design (Yay!) I decided to do a Jim Lee era Cyclops.

Hellboy:

Sun Boy from the Legion.

The Bride from Kill Bill:

And finally, Alex Delarge (I know buttsheadmate will like this one):

Roy Batty: I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain.... Time to die.
