ARuloff Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) Hi Guys, after seeing all off your great customs, and especially the great Custom Con entries, I decided to start my first Custom as well. So, I started on the decal for the face and this is what I came up with: To see how well I got the likeness, I will let you guys guess who it is. Here are two clues that might help: 1. She will get a blonde hair piece 2. She is a character from a current tv show Have fun guessing!

Bob Harris Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Great design anyway, but I think it's pretty hard to guess. Not because it sucks, which it doesnt, but because it'Äs very hard to guess a face without seeing anything else. And your hint doesn't help me at all. I'm not really up-to-date with current TV Shows.

NorthRaider Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I'm probably going to feel stupid posting this guess, but... Rose Tyler? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARuloff Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 Anna Torv from Fringe? I'm probably going to feel stupid posting this guess, but... Rose Tyler? No, but i can see the resemblance to both of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARuloff Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 CIA Agent Sarah Walker from Chuck. Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner! I have been working on a few Chuck Mate decals the last few days and hope I can make actual mates with them soon. Stay tuned for a few more pictures in the next days.

ARuloff Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) So, the last few days I have been working almost non-stop on all kind of Chuck Mates with varouse degree of success. Here is one where I am pretty happy with the result: Big Mike Any comments are welcome. As soon as I get my sticker paper delivered, I will start on making actual Mates.

ARuloff Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 Hi guys, I am currently working on a decal for Casey from Chuck, played by Adam Baldwin, and I can not get the likeness right. Here are my tries so far: Any advise on what I could improve to make it more look like him? For those of you that do not know what the great Adam Baldwin looks like, here are some pictures: http://chucktv.net/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=10 Thanks for your help and I will show off some finished customes soon.

TENIME_art Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 (edited) The bottom one looks too old. And, he has blue eyes, not green. Barring any other attempts, I'd say the top one looks pretty good. And, awesome Big Mike!! Can't wait to see Agent Carmichael himself! As for Sarah's parts - Gina Inviere's hairpiece: Captivity Six's body: ...with some black feet for shoes.

ARuloff Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 The bottom one looks too old. And, he has blue eyes, not green. Barring any other attempts, I'd say the top one looks pretty good. Thanks TENIME, I guess I will leave him the way he is right now and see what he looks like as a complete mate with body and hair. And, awesome Big Mike!! Can't wait to see Agent Carmichael himself! Thanks again, Big Mike was the easiest so far, he just is very distinctive. I have Mr. Bartowski and the turn-around face 'flashing' Chuck done, still working on Agent Carmichael. As for Sarah's parts - Gina Inviere's hairpiece Captivity Six's body ...with some black feet for shoes. Handgun That hair piece is perfect for the 'Orange Orange' employee! Still looking for a good one for the 'Wienerlicious' one... I hope I can find some decent parts on my trip trough the States. It seems we two are the only ones that know Chuck on here, that makes me sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Hey, it's coming back for a fourth season, there's more of us out there! BSG Apollo's hair will be perfect for Morgan's faux-hawk, and I think Yellowjacket's hair (painted brown) would be great for Casey! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 i LOVE chuck xD im so glad to hear its coming back its a great show and your designs look great! i think for casey you should go with something a little more shorter and on the verge of "balding" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Apollo is the one I will get for Morgan, I was thinking, for an easy 1st season Morgen, one could the use Emo Peter Parker hair. For Casey I was actually thinking about using the Old Man Logan hair painted brown. For Jeffster I was thinking maybe Ultimate Thor and Venkman.

TENIME_art Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Hmm...OML's hair is too spikey, and Adam Baldwin isn't going bald, robomate, lol. If Pym's hair is too "poofy", Bolt Face Iron Man's hair could work, too: My friends & I did a Chuck cosplay group for a con last year (I was Casey): It was last minute, so our hair wasn't perfect (and mine was a wig, lol).

ARuloff Posted October 2, 2010 Author Share Posted October 2, 2010 Hi guys, been some time. I was busy driving across the United States looking for Minimates (and of course enjoying my vacation). But now that I am back, I have done some work on actual Minimates, sadly none are done yet (still missing a lot of parts, mostly hair...) But here are the first 3 dry fittet Mates: Back: Sarah and Jeff, Front: Lester Still need to work on the eyebrows from Jeff, but otherwise I am pretty happy with them. Also, here is a teaser of what our titular hero will look like: Let me know what you think. Andreas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSG Apollo's hair will be perfect for Morgan's faux-hawk, and I think Yellowjacket's hair (painted brown) would be great for Casey! When I was making my friend I had to order that Apollo figure for his hair. I think Apolllo is the only minimate with the fauxhawk. I paid 1 cent plus $4.99 S/H.

DarkRedShadow Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Love the chuck customs so far and I especially like the chuck id card you did,I like it so much I edited a bit and saved it as my background{Allot I did was change the background grey{with the normal white I couldn't see the names of my files}and I changed chuck bartowski to just chuck{because while adding the gray some of it went over his name so I just added grey over the name then put chuck} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lastmaximal Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 There's something I can't put my finger on that seems off about Chuck [eyebags? smirk line?], but Sarah is spot-on. Wuv wuv wuv! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never have anyone use something from me as a background. Dude, the protos look great!! Can't wait to see more!! Thanks so much. I bought some paint over the weekend, so the first few will be done soon. There's something I can't put my finger on that seems off about Chuck [eyebags? smirk line?], but Sarah is spot-on. Wuv wuv wuv! Mhh, I actually like the way the smirk works, but I can see what you mean with the eyebags... I am thinking on using Classic Apollos hair for Lester, any thoughts or better recomendations?= Thanks Andreas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
