ED-209 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) Fairly self explanatory really. Some of my superhero decals. Superman: Batgirl (based on the Lego Batman video game): The Riddler (in his dapper dark green suit): Nick Fury (as portrayed by Samuel L. Jackson in the Iron Man film): The Incredible Hulk (in classic purple pants): The Incredible Hulk (in more modern/sensible blue pants): Enjoy! Edited February 16, 2009 by ED-209 Quote
Millacol88 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 Very well done. The incredible hulk and superman ones are the best. Perhaps you can deeplink the pics? Quote
ED-209 Posted February 17, 2009 Author Posted February 17, 2009 these are beautiful.~tin7 Thank you! Very well done. The incredible hulk and superman ones are the best. Perhaps you can deeplink the pics? Good idea! I posted them last night and, rather stupidly, didn't think of deeplinking them! So I deeplinked this morning as I was heading out the door to work. Thanks, I'm quite pleased with the Supes one too. I'm just dying to print one up and order one of AreaLight's wonderful Superman hairpieces! Quote
Shoc Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Woo, these are reallly nice! If TLC ever made any of these characters, I'm sure they'd look just like yours (Batgirl would of course). My favourites are Supes, Batgirl and the Riddler, but that's probably because I prefer DC to Marvel, and those are some of my favourite DC characters. The others are great too though! :skull: Edited February 17, 2009 by Shoc Quote
Asuka Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 A very fine work... especially that nice Batgirl one... Quote
Admiral Blockbeard Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Wonderful work. Did you make these for a MOC or just for the fun of it? Thanks for sharing. Regards, Cpt. PB Quote
pr0visorak Posted February 18, 2009 Posted February 18, 2009 Great job! I love the hulk in blue pants! Quote
alexrider7 Posted February 22, 2009 Posted February 22, 2009 I LOVE these decals... tip of the hat to you ED-209! Quote
ED-209 Posted February 24, 2009 Author Posted February 24, 2009 Wonderful work. Did you make these for a MOC or just for the fun of it? Really just for the fun of it to be honest, well, at least at this stage. When I've built up enough decals to fill an A4 page I intend to either print them all at once myself, or get them all printed professionally. Thanks for all the kind words guys, it's always nice to feel appreciated! I'm open to any other suggestions, if anyone has any good ideas for other characters to make decals for? Quote
Shoc Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 I'm open to any other suggestions, if anyone has any good ideas for other characters to make decals for? How about Wonder Woman or early Dick Grayson Robin (old style suit, from before official Lego one)? I'd be interested to see how those turn out! :skull: Quote

I assume this was the kind of Robin outfit you were thinking of? I decided against doing detailed musculature because it looked a little freaky! Don't forget to use use "naked" arms and legs though! I intend to make Wonder Woman in both yellow and flesh tones, but can anyone tell me what colour the flesh of licensed figures is? I'm trying to match the CMYK values using the colour charts: http://www.peeron.com/inv/colors http://www.peeron.com/cgi-bin/invcgis/colorguide.cgi ...but "flesh" (officially "nougat") seems way off. Am I way off here, or what? Quote

Not only are you great at making decals, you're really quick! Those are very very good, I like them a lot. Interesting bump instead of muscles!

Am I way off here, or what? Hmm... it does look a little too dark, but it might not be. You'd probably have to test it first by printing it. Three of the "orange" colours on the second list look a bit more like the light flesh colour. :skull: Edited February 26, 2009 by Shoc Quote
Bricks Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 You've done a really good job! You must be a really good designer, they look perfect. The best are the one from HULK and RIDDLER. Thanks for sharing these beauties 'Bricks' Quote
natelite Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 wow, your decals are great! you should apply them to see how they look. your hulk is nice. though i can see where you got the grimace from! it's hard to apply hulk to a normal mf though... since the hulk needs to be much larger. Quote
ED-209 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Posted February 28, 2009 your hulk is nice. though i can see where you got the grimace from! it's hard to apply hulk to a normal mf though... since the hulk needs to be much larger. Thanks! Yeah, I try to base the faces on official Lego heads so they kind of "fit in" more. The Hulk is based on one of the Viking heads, Nick Fury is based on the new pirate captain, Wonder Woman is based on Catwoman. Anyway, here's a few more: First up is Wonder Woman again, this time in the new "licensed minifig" flesh tone. It seems a little off to me, but these are apparantly the correct CMYK values. I've added the face decal too (for both versions), as I stupidly forgot that she'd need her tiara! Wow! Not only are you great at making decals, you're really quick! Those are very very good, I like them a lot. Interesting bump instead of muscles! LOL, thank you, well the "bump" is meant to be more of a "crease" in the outfit! I wasn't trying to portray a pot-bellied Robin, although that is a rather funny concept! I sort of went with the way that Burt Ward's costume was more of a tunic than tights (or at least that was my intention!) But here's a version of Grayson's outfit with a more heroic physique if you'd prefer it! http://i574.photobucket.com/albums/ss186/EdwardTheRed/Lego%20decals/GreenLantern.jpg' alt='GreenLantern.jpg'> Quote
Shoc Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 (edited) Wow! Your Wonder Woman face decal is great, as is the Green Lantern's body decal! You are a brilliant Lego artist. I like the muscled version of Robin's torso just the same as the creased one, that wasn't a complaint before. All your decals look how they would as official minifigures, so really well done! Have you tried Martian Manhunter, body and face? That would look really cool... :skull: Edited February 28, 2009 by Shoc Quote
ED-209 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Posted February 28, 2009 Have you tried Martian Manhunter, body and face? That would look really cool... Haha! That's a great idea! Quote
Shoc Posted February 28, 2009 Posted February 28, 2009 That was a really speedy reply, and once again, it looks awesome! Martian Manhunter is one of my favourite looking superheroes, and you've kept that great look while having him in Lego form. I can't stop praising your great work! :skull: Quote
ED-209 Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) Thanks Shoc, thought I'd add in a couple of new ones! Reed Richards, Mr Fantastic: and his wife Sue Storm, The Invisible Woman: I suppose Reed's torso could also be used for Johnny Storm when he's not on fire too. Two versions of a Spidey villain, the Sandman: Hope you guys enjoy! And BTW, I'm still open to further suggestions/requests that anyone might have? Edited March 3, 2009 by ED-209 Quote
Lex Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 Green lantern is the best and the others are pretty good. Lex Luthor like in the graphic novel: "lex luthor man of steel" will be great if you give it a try. He is my favourite "hero". Big thanks for your earlier works. Quote
