[MOC] A Witcher figbarf

[the Inventor]

From left to right, if you don't know:
- Vernon Roche
- Dandelion (or Jaskier)
- Triss Merigold
- Geralt of Rivia
- Yennefer of Vengerberg
- Shani
- Zoltan Chivay

Eagerly awaiting the lute of the new collectible minifigure series, this has to do for now.

very nice! currently watching the witcher, too bad lego won't pick this up, would make for a fantastic theme

Some interesting combo's here.  I like the use of the black falcon pants on the crown knight torso.  That torso for Geralt seems to be the most popular choice i've seen.  Nice work.  

[the Inventor]

Thanks.

@zoth33 about the torso for Geralt, I have seen that too, although I had him build for a long time, before I saw others use it too, It's a great torso for him. The others I build only recently.

Wow. This looks better than all the custom Witcher minifigures I've seen on several sites. Great job. But where is Ciri?

[the Inventor]

@Styphelus Thank you and I agree, the problem with custom decals/non-Lego elements is that it would be very difficult to give it a real LEGO feel, and at which point do you stop putting in more details.

I find it much better to use existing parts as best as possible to represent the characters.

About Ciri, yes I know, I could not find a suitable hair piece in my collection, but will make a v2 of these figs, just finding the right parts, maybe I will also include other characters such as Vesimir.

is the witcher torso and hairpiece still available? which sets are they from?

@Sir Jedrus You can find them on bricklink, but the torso is a bit expensive: 

BrickLink - Part 973pb2661c01 : LEGO Torso Ninjago Dark Bluish Gray Armor with Wolf Head Emblem Pattern / Light Bluish Gray Arms / Black Hands [Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.] - BrickLink Reference Catalog maybe look for the complete figure/set,

and this is the hair: BrickLink - Part 88283 : LEGO Minifigure, Hair Mid-Length Tousled with Center Part [Minifigure, Hair] - BrickLink Reference Catalog

 

[Sir Jedrus]

thanks for the links!!

I completely agree! However nice they are (not speaking about decals which I dislike), I, too, find non-LEGO elements a bit too over-detailed for my taste

Very well done! I always have fond memories of The Witcher games whenever I come across The Witcher content.

[Glassjaw]

Great job for Roche, I’m hoping with the increase in medieval themed sets/figs, we get a proper headpiece for him. I used the same part for that style headdress as well.

Good work overall!

You've really put together a handsome collection of characters here. As a massive figbarf fan myself, I really enjoyed having a look at what you've done - and can't wait to see more!
