My first Minifigs Customisation attempt (Castle & Pirates)

[WhiteFang]

Hello everyone,

This is my very first project and attempt to customise minifigs. I can't design decals or having knowledge to print my own decals as well, but with the help of Brickforge's stickered decals, it has made my dream into a reality. Indeed, the idea of "peel and stick" decals is a great one, and the quality of such decals are truly amazing that are meant to last. And, I shall show you how I customise my minifigs with the aid of Brickforge in this "Part 1, Exclusive Coverage".

I hope you will enjoy viewing this presentation. All parts used are products of LEGO and Brickforge accessories.

1) Guardian Crusader

2) Guardian Sorceress

3) Guardian Knight

My Castle and Pirates minifigs customisation

My remaining decals, yet to be used

Will continue to work and search on my available minifigs to continue with the rest of the customisation, hopefully, I can complete it soon, and share with all of you, one day.

An useful tip...

For some of the minifigs used in this customisation project, I used minifigs from the recent Pirates Tic Tae Toe set, as I don't want to mix all of them together with the rest of my minifigs, and I don't want to cast them aside completely. Therefore, these marked minifigs are very useful in such project. Hope this tip is useful to you, if you have such marked minifigs available inside your collection.

And, I will leave you with this poll to vote for your favourite minifig inside my Customisation project.

Thanks.

I knew you joined the BF forum for a reason!

Very nice Fangy. I like the head combos and weapon choices as well as the decals!

10) Muscular Crew

Err... Perhaps a yellow torso?

Oh, you have noticed.

Thanks! I am glad you have enjoyed it.

Err... Perhaps a yellow torso?

I know! Yellow torso is very precious inside my collection. I don't want to use it, unless I can find a marked Classic Spaceman.

The Gaurdian is really great, he got my vote, the rest is great aswell, but I don't like the manga eyes on the Sorceres, they don't blend in with the rest of the group. Somehow they do suit the Guardian.

Anyway, a very good first attempt, they all look genuine, you didn't overdue the non Lego parts.

Which Guardian do you like? Is it the white or red one? I understand why you don't like the Exo Force facial look. I was trying to do some trials to see, if I could integrate the facial experession together with the usual looking ones. Actually, these 3 Guardian Characters are something out of my usual collection, meant for some special Tempest Knights related Castle collection.

Anyway, a very good first attempt, they all look genuine, you didn't overdue the non Lego parts.

Thanks Bobskink! It's wonderful to have a great customiser like yourself, to show appreciation in my fairly average attempt.

Very well done, WhiteFang! )

I myself have bought those exellent decals, but couldn't fing a proper use for some of them. You've managed to use most of them, and not just use in any way, but make such great figs! I vote for Hot lass. ) I never liked that pirate head but in this case it looks really good. )

May we expect any new customs soon? )

Good day, ladies and gentlemen! )

It's great to know, that you enjoyed these customised work.

Didn't know, you bought these decals too. As these decals are not very generic, I felt that giving these characters some sort of personality will be good, and I try them out, hoping to add them inside to my future projects. These decals are very useful, and I even have seen how Dragonator did it inside his Mystery Castle 2.

May we expect any new customs soon?

I certainly hope so, but not soon, I supposed. Then again, once I finish the second half of the decals, I will definitely share it here.

They're all very nice, Fangy!

Shadows Ranger

For some reason, this one really caught my eye. The good one.

He was my favourite character, and I voted for him inside my poll!

I love the first one. How did you get that hair style?

It seems many of you, prefer the Guardian Crusader, and I pretty like the end result myself too.

This hair style, is from Brickforge, Hero Hair (White).

It's definitely a very cool hairstyle. (IMHO)

[brickme]

Very nicely done. The only concern I have is that the stickers look a little thick and ready to peel off.

No, trust me, this stickers are made of high quality, unless you choose to abuse or scratch the surface of the decals on purpose, it might come off, but other than that, its resistant against peeling.
