A cheapo's Luminara and Ki-Adi!

[Darth Legolas]

Well first off, you can read my base ideas: here (link.)

That'll teach you the whole "posting on decals" part.

But now, after you've looked on brickshelf, gotten the decals, and pasted them on your new Luminara minifig. You still have one problem... where's the hat? It's not too easy to make you know, and on ebay and bricklink those things cost $40! I know I'm not gonna pay 40 bucks (USD) for a dinky little hat! Well I found le (the ) solution!

Ingredients : One Lego cape, one dishy thingie (picture provided,) and one pare of scissors.

First: Take one all black lego cape (you know the piece, right?) You have to cut it all around into a perfect rectangle (don't cut off the holes the wrap around the minifig neck!) Then you take this:

Of course, in black, and if you don't have one in black you can make it black with permanent marker. Then, you take your square cape, put the 2 holes around the stud on the minifigs head and put the dish on top of it. There you have a perfect Luminara's hat. (Pics coming later)

As for ki-adi it's simple. First, find a good decal for his face. Next, you take one Lego Patrick (From spongebob)'s head and paste the decal on the back side, and cover up the face, Then you have an instant Mundi head! (Pics later also.)

Pictures! PICTURES!

Comments? Criticism? Tacos?

That sounds interesting.

I won't make my own until I see pics of yours though.

I might try it, but I not too anxious to cut any capes

It's easy I did it for one of my things.

Great cheap ideas.

Luminara looks decent, but Ki-Adi looks a bit goofy

And I'm working on those tacos

[Bobskink]

they look alright as LBC's

LBC's? Oh, and thanks KinGanon. I'll try to work on my goofy little Ki!

[Norrington]

They look good, but Ki-Adi-Mundi looks pretty ridiculous with that excessive amount of neck fat.

Although I just want a real TLC Luminara and Ki-Adi in a not so expensive set, these ideas are quite nice.

Ki-Adi looks like his head is gonna explode... sorry. I just felt the need to say that. I can't do Luminara because I have already cut up to many black capes and I only have one now. But, that one is being used as a cover thing for my Sweeney Todd moc. Yeah. Only thing to do is buy more capes off of bricklink. But that defeats the whole purpous. Because I could go ahead and just get a really good Luminara (not that yours is bad) and it would be worth it because buying 1 or 2 capes will not be good because it is worthless because of shipping! Thats usually around $20. Whats the point... for me. Ok... my point is I can't make them.

Well sorry there, but now looky here! People say they're gonna make a Luminara in 2009 wave 2! What a waste of time!

Oh well, I guess I'll use this one until then.
