Mister Phes's new Signature & Avatar

[gylman]

Phes - your avatar looks freaky! What's up with that. Did you PAINT on some lips? He look rather... well... unmanly (if I must put it diplomatically).

Is this a recent change. When did he start playing for the other team?

[Mister Phes]

Ah yeah... I figured Johnny Thunder was the most effeminate mini-figure in existence so I wacked his head on my Imperial Armada figure and now he's right up there with Lord Vladek Jr...

Now new users won't be threaten by my former menacing appearance.

I've never seen a Johnny Thunder head that looked like that!! Crikey! What set is that from??

[Mister Phes]

Actually I'm mistaken its a different head completely. I have no idea where this head originated from and now I'm curious. Does anyone know?

(I should move this posts to a new thread so as not to disrupt this thread.)

[Sarg_Kulo]

Yes and you should be banned for your off topicness... acually I like going off topic, just like the good old days eh ;-)

[Mister Phes]

I wasn't going to create a thread about my new signature and avatar unless someone brought it up, and obviously that's happened, so to prevent another thread from going off topic I've moved the posts here.

IMPORTANT QUESTION Does anybody know which set the mini-figure head for my new avatar and signature originated from?

[Khorne]

Could it be that the head originates from a Lego City set? One of the workers' theme? *sweet* I don't think he looks unmanly, but Italian.

[Kikuichimonji]

Here you go...

[Mister Phes]

Excellent work Mr Kikuichimonji!

It can be found in the following sets:

6474 - Wheeled Front Shovel (Town)

6600 - Highway Construction (Town)

4587 - Duel Racers (Racers)

You were right Mr Khorne, the head is from City or Town or whatever its called.

NEXT IMPORTANT QUESTION Does this head suit? Is there a more suitable head for a conquistador leader? Aside from the one LEGO invented that is because I want to customize the figure to make it unique. A mini-figure that is truly my own!

[gylman]

Except Phes' has red lips. That's why it looks so....... different.

Maybe the red lips are an artifact of making a 100x100 sized avatar, mixing a thin black line and a yellow face.

And yet, my avatar does not that have effect.

OH, THE MYSTERY OF IT ALL!!!

EDIT:

OH, it does not look red on Phes' screen!!! This has more twists and turns than the Da Vinci Code. We need to start a poll of this. Who sees it red vs black vs other. Quickly!

[Mister Phes]

Red lips? Red lips aren't showing up on my screen Mr Gylman! Are they showing up on anybody elses?

[gylman]

By the way PHes, your sig picture is beautiful. Too big, mind you, since I find those things just distract me when reading a thread, but regardless it is the nicest sig picture I have ever seen anyone make at EB.

[Mister Phes]

Awwwwww!!! That's so sweet! I suppose you could say its a MOC of sorts too!

I was wondering if its too big. Nobody has said anything till now so I just left it. I didn't want to make it smaller as it would compromise the detail, but if its too distracting I guess I'll have to down-size.

So...

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

• Does the head suit the body? If not, which would be a better head?
  
• Do you think the signature is too big and distracting?

I think the bloodthirsty grin is higly appropriate for an inquisition taskforce out to hunt down some heathens or apostates.

Size is a personal issue :-)

Some say size doesn't matter

Others think size is more important than quality

I will let the admins judge the importance of size to them :-P

[WesternOutlaw]

OH, THE MYSTERY OF IT ALL!!!

Did someone say Mystery?

[Sarg_Kulo]

The lips look kind of red on my screen, not really all that noticable though.

I really like the head and think it looks at home here.

And your sig could use being a few sizes down but I don't think anyone's gonna care if you just leave it how it is ;-)

[Norro]

I go away for a few days and the inquisition launches a new image?! I'm speechless (but fortunately can still type...)

God Bless,

[Brick Miner]

why does your signature include a dog-chewed cutlass ??? ;-)

oh, and the mini-fig head is good... the reason it might look a little fruity is that the expression is so happy with a open mouth grin, when all the other armada figures are not, and have tightened eyebrows.

however, the lips do look a little red on my screen.

i always like the SPYRUS CHEIFs head for a pirates minifig MOC... it seams to blend seamlessly.

Yes, look around Mr Norro the Inquisition has launched several new images and more are on their way! More exciting times have arrived at Eurobricks at last!

Actually I think its a child-chewed cutlass! I noticed and thought I'd leave it and see if anybody would comment on it. I guess that poor conquistador has been in the wars!

Is this the head you refer to Mr Brick Miner? If so I do agree it is very appropriate for piratical purposes...

[Norro]

I never thought of using that head for pirates (and I have one) shame! Great idea.

God Bless,

Nathan

I have nothing really constructive to say here, and didnt read the second page, but Your avatar is awsome, the face looks great and u shouldnt mind what people thing, after all, its just a bad picture right? Your not always grinning like that are you? As for me I always smile..Ohh and for your signature, I would add a border, cause it looks like just a floating picture, and make it like 315-340 X 110-120.

(Length) (Height)

I guess that was constructive :D

[Brick Miner]

yup, that is the head i was refering to... i can't believe its officially a SPACE head !!! it works so well with pirates, western, and adventurers !!!
