buttheadsmate Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I'm not exaggerating when I say that it nigh on breaks my heart to see these Luke. Don't get me wrong I love them ....really love them :sad: I particularly like Tennants hair,the only decent QC I ever did of him was lacking in this area.....mind you yours is perfect.... generally .

boyd Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Your new batch of Who-mates is wonderful. Tennant is spot-on, and the details on the others is great. And I think your second Eccleston is much better than the grinning one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Truly amazing work once again Luke, but they make me ask the question, 'what's a 'Dr. Who'? I don't remember seeing any of those characters in Tommy, but I guess it's been awhile since I watched it. Were these from the Broadway musical version?

mini nugget Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 STUNNING. just stunning. Tennant is perfect and the new eccleston is a vast improvement and i just can't believe the detail on dalek sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 13, 2011 Author Share Posted April 13, 2011 Thanks guys! The more I look at this Eccleston, the happier I am with him. My son and I watched Blink over the weekend, so at some point you can expect to see some Weeping Angels customs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcastick Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 As promised, here is the 10th Doctor Set I have been working on! Daleks in Manhattan The minimates are (clockwise from the front) The Doctor, Laszlo, Dalek Sec, and a Pig Slave. The two black daleks are the 2.5" electronic daleks. All of the characters have decals for their chest and face. I used Fixit Sculpt for the Doctor's hair, the pig ears, and Dalek Sec's tendrils. Here is an image of the top of Dalek Sec's head: Here is my "serious" Christopher Eccleston face: Do you think it looks more like him than the smiling face? Also, in case you missed it in my sig, here is the new chest decal for Age of Apocalypse Jean: I will have two more 10th Doctor customs finished in the next few days, with many more to follow. That 10th Doctor set is AMAZING Luke!!!!! I'd definitely buy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye's Junk Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I guess im in the minority. The new Eccleston is good but I prefer the zany one better. Good work on Tennant. Looks awesome. The AOA Jean is a huge improvement. Thanks for sharing that! Quick Question, any chance of uploading your AOA Havok face decal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Quick Question, any chance of uploading your AOA Havok face decal? Yes I will make sure that gets added in the next udpate. And my Doctor Who obsession continues with 2 more figures! These were a special request from my 4 year old son, as it is one of his favorite episodes: Hal "Burn With Me" Korwin from "42" His helmet is a slip-on mask with the area around the visor added from another slip-on mask, and the breathing cylinders added from some random pieces of plastic, and then everything accented with decals. Here is some fun with photoshop: Possessed Doctor from "42" His helmet is modified from a Minimates MAX police officer, and his hair is sculpted from Fixit Sculpt. His face and chest are decals, and his shoulder area was cut from a BSG pilot. More fun with photoshop: I will probably have more next week. This junkie will need another fix soon.

luke314pi Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 Hey Luke I caught your Poe Ghostal minimate over at Poeghostal.com. Nice job, Poe the 'mate looks great. Thanks! He was definitely a challenge. I was sick over the weekend, so I didn't get any customizing done. However, last night I had to do something on my wheel sander, so while I was in the garage I decided to shorten up a minimate that has been bugging me for a long time: I hated how the young John Connor was the same height as the T-800, so I shortened his legs, arms, and torso, to bring him down to a more correct height. And look what came in the mail yesterday courtesy of Rad! The new Doctor Who Character Builder figures are quite a bit smaller than minimates, but I think some of their accessories will work just fine, such as this TARDIS. Also, my interview is posted at Minimate Headquarters with tons of info about my next sticker kit. It should be released in less than a month!

Lobsterman Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Nice work on Connor, Luke. I've been thinking about doing that to a couple shorter characters. Did you just shave off of the ends of the arms and legs, then drill new pegholes, or did you also cut into the tops of each and shave off equal amounts above and below the joint (does that make sense)?

So far whenever I have shortened a minimate I have always done what you said at first - shaved off the ends of the arms and legs, fix the peg holes, and shave off the bottom of the torso. I have always considered cutting the upper arms and legs in half and removing some of that material as well, but I haven't tried this yet.
