Peppermint_M Posted September 5, 2011 To celebrate the great stalwart of Action Themes we are having a month underwater. So don't be left out! Send your sigfig to the depths of the deep blue ocean! Are you an intrepid explorer, a treasure hunter or maybe a scary creature of the deep! The best avatars, as voted by members, will win one of these four amazing tags! So switch your 'fig to underwater mode and post it here for all to see! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted September 5, 2011 Will animated GIFs be allowed as they were in the Halloween avatar contest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horry Posted September 5, 2011 Is it enough to post here with the avatar in place or shall we post an additional picture? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted September 5, 2011 Will animated GIFs be allowed as they were in the Halloween avatar contest? I think we will stick with forum rules on this one. While animated avatars can look nice, it's best not to change too much for this theme month else we'll risk mass protest when we revert back Is it enough to post here with the avatar in place or shall we post an additional picture? Please post a picture of your underwater avatar here too. Then we can enjoy them in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted September 5, 2011 Sounds like fun, my avatar has been under construction any way, this is a great reason to get to work on him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horry Posted September 5, 2011 Seems reasonable.... so I would like to present my twenty seconds - avatar: Avatar 01 von HMSCentaur auf Flickr I read about changing the avatar, went to my Lego equipment box, got the aquanauts helmet and the harpoon, went to my frigate and found the poor marine that has been my avatar around here since day one and gave him some new equipment - nothing fancy but I find it kind of funny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted September 5, 2011 Mine's done! Aquanaut on a Aquazone speeder bike! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricksandparts Posted September 5, 2011 Can we use custom decals? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted September 5, 2011 Can we use custom decals? Sorry no. With the seven Action underwater factions (eight if you include the Alpha Team deep sea mission), not to mention the town based divers, CMF diver, many accessories for deep sea diving and the other themes with underwater possibilities I don't really think there is a need for custom decals. This is simply an underwater mode for your sigfig or a cool sea/underwater based figure, not a custom minifig contest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricksandparts Posted September 5, 2011 ok, Thats, cool. I was just wondering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oky Posted September 5, 2011 In the underwater world, Oky is a proud protector of the City of Atlantis! I was considering to just switch my Space Ranger suit to a diver's suit, but this seemed way cooler and more original! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Builder Posted September 5, 2011 Are you going to include Bionicle Mahri/Star Wars guys? Or are we just going to stick with Action themes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkdragon Posted September 5, 2011 Here's my underwater avatar, swimmin with da fishes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piranha Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) Ohhh I love underwater themes! Divers and Aquanauts are my favorites though, red bush anyone? Here is mine: Deep Sea Diver w/rebreather collecting that cool seahorse fossil piece ( Also for some more underwater fun, spot the abnormality ) Edited September 6, 2011 by Macoco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ceroknight Posted September 5, 2011 Here's me! By the way, I'm really digging yours Oky! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K-Nut Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) Done: Sorry for the blurriness. I tried to make it without any Underwater parts to see how it looked. But the only torso I could find that looked good was an Aqua-Raiders one. Basically it's an underwater treasure-hunter. Can we change ours in the future? Because I need to make my pics clearer. I'm really loving yours, Oky. Edited September 6, 2011 by K-nut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricksandparts Posted September 6, 2011 I have made two, maybe I'll make more, but I have not decided which one to use. Aqua raiders II theme: Aqua sharks theme: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted September 6, 2011 K-nut, if you make a new one, post it here as your new avatar, if you are just taking a better photo, replace the one you posted. Bricksandparts, so long as you tell me which one you are entering for consideration, post as many as you like. Those are pretty cool avatars already! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
