12th Mold: Minifig Customs in 3d

[woody64]

I've started to work on my 12th mold.

Very proud to see some of my customizations already on the net. The most exciting onces are from Michael Evans.

Check out his newest at:

- Incident in Belgium: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/146669

- Esslingen: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/146074

- Black Brunswickers at the Pirates Forum: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=32592

The most interesting topic for the next strep will be to redesign the most needed items for the white and detail material, which seems to be more smooth to the viewers.

Suggestions are welcome ...

Are there any pics of the gas mask on any minifigs? I would be interested to see how it looked.

Do you have a picture with the minifigures wearing the Legion of the U.S. Helmet, also have you tried using the periwig for the woman?

[Joey Lock]

I love the gas mask, Im going to definitely make a big WW1 MOC using these Items!

I've tried it with a lot of my hats and it works. Pictures may be given later during that week.

The female periwig had a design problem at the plug so that I can't check the correct fitting yet.

Woody is there any chance you'd have a go a making a Capeline or more commonly called a lobster pot helmet Click which was used well into the Seven Years war.

Interesting topic. I will put it on my list.

Should it look like this?

Woody that looks great, the only thing I wonder about is if the side flaps should be a tad smaller but I can't quite decide.

[woody64]

There are some pieces already tested with white detail:

You can find a detailed look at: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=398497

The merchant hat and the medieval hat are in white detail, which results in a more smooth surface.

I've also started to make sections on my shapeways account, so you can see the items fitting to different historical periods and also which of the items should be printable in white detail (but not all tested yet).

The prototype is uploaded so you can take a look on the 3d view.
