TENIME_art Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Must get blank blue World Tour 'Mate... I never even found Ghost Rider. My friend found it, kept GR & gave me Daredevil. Which is fine. I like DD. GR's his favorite character of all time. Still want GR... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous Rex Posted September 29, 2007 Author Share Posted September 29, 2007 Hey Guys, Haven't been around too much, and may not be contributing too much for some time (unless some contests show up ) I have started school ...finally...graduated high school in 1991 . The VA (Veterans Affairs)is paying for me to go to school for graphic design and animation. So, if anything, maybe some school projects will allow me to do some cool stuff animating minimates (long way away) Hopefully I will be able to hang up my work boots, and trade them in for a nice comfy chair. well, anyway, back to the reason for this post...my latest custom. This one has been in the works for me for some time now, and have been done it for a little bit now, but wanted to wait until the new owner(who didn't know I was making it) could open up his new package...I think he was a little surprised(at least I hope so)... can you guess who it was for?

Customizer Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Quick Question: The modified arms on the Optimus Prime custom pictured earlier in this thread...is the hinge held together by a metal pin (needle) ? Ive seen this method used on several figures and ive used it myself on non mate customs. if they arent held together by metal pins what are they held together by? Did you use foreign (i.e. not minimate) plastic to make the hinge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Nervous, you got some mad crazy skills and your customs keep on getting better and better (i have no idea how that is even possible though) good luck with your school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE_CRIPPLER Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Alright Nervous, you have held out on us long enough. Lets see some new customs. I know ya got some.

I think you have the best customs out of everyone on here and that is saying alot cuz there are some kick ass customizers on here. Hey Crippler, you are right, I do got some, well, have had some done for awhile now, just really haven't had the motivation to do a lot of posting lately. School and work are taking a lot out of me, so I am pretty much in lurking mode. I was just about done the Panthro and decided to scrap him, just wasn't too happy how he was looking, and want to start a fresh one. I may have a pic somewhere of the wip if you'd be interested in seeing it, I think a few of the gang have seen it some time ago. I have a feeling there will be one unveiled soon, but not by me The one major project I have put a lot of time into is my lego Christmas street, which I will hopefully post some pictures before the 25th Thanks for the praise man, I never know how the reception will be when I post a new custom......my name is nervous for a reason, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous Rex Posted December 25, 2007 Author Share Posted December 25, 2007 Hey Gang, Merry Christmas to everyone, I finally have some time to do some posting. thanks for looking at my little stocking stuffers. first up is the now long abandoned Panthro project. I just flat out hated how this was starting to look, so I decided to scrap it, and plan on sometime re-doing with a larger mate. I really want to have real spikes, and not just painted/decaled ones. well here ya go,please be gentle Next up is one for you GI Joe fans. one of my favorites to play with when i was growing up was Grand Slam, and his J.U.M.P. Jet pack(probably because he looked so much like Flash, another favorite) I sto...borrowed this idea from my buddies over at B.I. Joe (lego joe custom site) works so well with minimates I think. an updated chrome faced Cobra Commander a little wip that has been sitting and a little fun with photoshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE_CRIPPLER Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Yeah, how was the chrome done?? It looks so sharp. Great job. As for Panthro, I'd keep him the same size as Lion-O. In the cartoon and comics, he wasn't any taller, he just looked like his shoulders were a bit wider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
