Chazwinski Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) OK Guys, I thought I'd just mess around and create a minimate custom of my favorite character and would like to share it with you. Be gentle, but let me know what you think. <img src="http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Edited November 27, 2011 by Chazwinski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINI_MYTE Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Awesome design of morlock Storm! Are you gonna attempt making a custom of her? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Nice design, fairly close to one I made way back in 2005... I'm sure a better one could be done as there are better parts to use these days. http://www.geocities.com/thatbloketimbo/stormfront.jpg http://www.geocities.com/thatbloketimbo/Stormside.jpg T.

Fo Shizzle Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 As much as I love the design TBT the only thing I have not liked about Storm is when people give her pupils. From the very beginning I have never known her to have them and don't agree that they did that with her in the movie. But asides from that one tiny thing, actually two tiny things I think it's really awesome!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBT, I've seen your custom before and liked it a lot. It looks great! I only wish DST would make one! Boyd's looked good too. Oh, and Mini-myte, I just simply don't have the time to do actual customs...my job keeps me away from home all the time, but the design was fairly quick and easy to do. I think I've gotten the bug! Maybe I'll just design some when I AM at home. As much as I love the design TBT the only thing I have not liked about Storm is when people give her pupils.

But asides from that one tiny thing, actually two tiny things I think it's really awesome!! Oh, Fo Shizzle...I disagree. In the comic books they often show her with cat-like blue eyes. I think more of the toys need to show her blue eyes...almost all of the toys made of her are pupiless.

Fo Shizzle Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) I guess I am just a sucker for the old school look! She is one of the strongest and most iconic characters Marvel has ever created and it kind of irks me when Marvel artists put a new twist on a character when it doesn't really call for it. But of course that is just my opinion and it would not take away the fact if TBT was to put it up for auction, I would defifnitely have my bid in for it. I believe a few of the Storm figures I do own have pupils, it's just that with pupils I think it takes away from her godlike uniqueness that I have grown to love.

Fo Shizzle, if I design a Jim Lee era storm, I promise not to add the pupils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamrock Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Looks great, I really like the way what I assume is shiny leather is handled, very unique. And frankly, since the addition of the holes to the head, I've been wanting to see a Minimate Mohawk for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chazwinski Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 When I used to play Street Fighter, I usually used this guy, and I think he's much more visually interesting than some of the characters that were made into minimates.

Chazwinski Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 Here is Jack Burton from Big Trouble In Little China. I must confess that most of this is cut & paste (even his hair and eyes)...however, we get a pretty good idea of what he would look like as a minimate.

THE_CRIPPLER Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I love the Jack Burton design. How did you get the design on his shirt? Did you do it yourself, or take it from another image? I have a custom that has been sitting here for about a year that needs his shirt finished and was wondering how you did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I googled "Jack Burton T-Shirt". They actually sell that thing... Then I just resized it and cut and pasted onto my minimate. Oh, and I wanted to add one more Boogie Nights character... You can't have Boogie Nights without the beautiful Amber Waves. lol Edited June 20, 2008 by Chazwinski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazwinski Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 I was a HUGE Legion of Superheroes fan back in the early '80s and Wildfire was one of my very favorite members. I plan on checking out the LSH revamp later this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
