Osama_Ben_Lander Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) I randomly got the inspiration today to try my hand at a custom minimate. I'll be the first to admit that it's a tad amateur, but this is my first ever custom and it's of me, so be gentle.

Mattallica Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) looks good! do you really wear that web belt with all the pouches if so whats in them? uh.... nice screen name by the way Edited June 1, 2009 by Mattallica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osama_Ben_Lander Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 lol, thanks. The screen name is a nickname of mine from high school. And no, I don't really wear a pouch belt. (I would if I had one.) I do, however, wear studded belts a lot so that's where the idea came from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osama_Ben_Lander Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) Here's a few quick Designs I came up with... The first is Hiei from the show Yu Yu Hakusho. (I used to love that show). The second is just a random ninja-type minimate, that I thought looked kinda neat. Edited June 2, 2009 by Osama_Ben_Lander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osama_Ben_Lander Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 And here's Nova (Frankie Raye) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Two-Face Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Those designs are coming out real nice; take it from a wannabe comic-artist. One tidbit though: i love the detailing you use, but the eyes are extremely close to each other. I'd space them out a bit to look a tad more human. And Yu Yu was such a great show, until it got too repetitive; it's also kinda sad that the anime ended a LONG time ago and the US is still finishing the manga...ouch.

NorthRaider Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Not bad at all... it just occurred to me that the three other main characters from that show (or at least their "uniformed" versions) can be easily customized using the Jigsaw/Wonder Man jacket pieces and some closely-matched hairpieces and stuff. And your ninja custom reminds of those awesome ninja-goon minimates we would've gotten had the C3 Batman Begins line actually come into fruition...

Osama_Ben_Lander Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Thanks for the tip. And yeah, I know what you mean. Yet another thing the US is behind Japan in...lol. ... it just occurred to me that the three other main characters from that show (or at least their "uniformed" versions) can be easily customized using the Jigsaw/Wonder Man jacket pieces and some closely-matched hairpieces and stuff... That would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osama_Ben_Lander Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Here's a blast from the past, if any of you remember the show "Reboot". This is glitch Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osama_Ben_Lander Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 My Second actual custom...Nova (Frankie Raye). Still amateur hour, but I'm decently satisfied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minimadman Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I do, however, wear studded belts a lot so that's where the idea came from. And.......................... you lost me. I will never understand studded belts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I like that Ninja, the eyes really pop and look intense against the black figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
