Some New Castle Customs

[Lamanda2]

This is my first post for this new Forum, yay! :-)

I'm trying to get back into customization more and more as of late, since I have kinda slipped away from it in past months.

My Mom has been letting me used some nice sticker paper she purchased a while ago that didn't work out for what she needed (Ink smudges on it if not sealed.). I'm really enjoying using it, the decals look great and I don't have to go through the troubles I had been getting caught up on with waterslide. (That doesn't mean I'm giving up on Waterslide though, just taking a break from it really)

The day befor yesterday I made these Customs (Some to sell, but that doesn't mean they can't have a proper thread).

I'll start with the most simple, and only purist figure of the bunch:

Forestwomen

She fits in perfectly with my Forestmen.

Actually, I'm selling her to hopefully make a couple bucks, but I made twins, keeping one for myself. :)

Next Up:

Two Custom Maidens

-Red

-White

I absolutely love the lady with the red dress.

And Finally, I made two Custom Crown Knights:

Smiley Crownie

Other Crownie Knight

There ye have it. Let me know what you think.

Very nice! I agree - the one in the red dress is stunning! X-D

[Asuka]

Smart work, especially these nifty ladies.... and your Forestwoman

is a classic and timeless beauty for sure. *y*

[Brickadier General]

These look really good, and I especially like the dresses. Very professional looking. I myself only use sticker paper, and it works really well. I use clear packing tape to "laminate" the sticker, and I think it give it a "lego-like shine."

The red crown knights look wonderful! ) Thank you! ) *sweet*

I hope we shall have the pleasure of seeing more of your MOC-s! )

Sweet! Red Crownies own the original ones... X-D

I like the two ladies, what a precisly work! Altough I like purist figures, these are so perfectly done.

Thank you all for your comments. :-)

"I myself only use sticker paper, and it works really well. I use clear packing tape to "laminate" the sticker, and I think it give it a "lego-like shine.""

I have heard others say they use packing tape to cover their decals and it works quite well. But in this circumstance I had to go with a spray, because for some reason printing on the paper I am using looks dll when dry, so it takes a liquid seal to bring in the color.

I will definetely show you guys any of my upcoming creations. I've got a couple things in the works.

Thanks again!

Ah, so it runs in the family X-D

You know I had seen these earlier and I guess I missed that part...I can't believe they're not waterslides! At least I had to squint fairly hard to notice any tell-tale signs :-$ Beautiful work on all of them. they somehow capture that real lego look (even the princesses!) to the point where I almost wondered if they were official.

The two red crownies are *wub*! These really do look like official TLC minifigs, Excellent work!

"Ah, so it runs in the family"

Heheh.. Well, the artistic-ness does at least, but sadly she isn't really into LEGO (Pity..). She had boughten about 100 sheets of the stuff to use as shipping labels since they were only about $10, but like a say.. the smudging..

Thank you! That's quite a comliment! :-)
