eclipsegrafx Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 I am probably too late I just saw the GMT on the deadline but here goes nothing: Theme: TURTLE POWER! (Ninja turtles/Cartoons) Character : Donatello Costume Cost: I can't say since it was stuff that I had already but millipu was 7$ for the whole pack. Some electric tape and paint. The paint is 2$ per color.... so maybe 12$ Oh and the label paper for the torso. Materials used: Lego pieces, Milliput, paint, crazy glue, and electic tape. Auntmay in her closet ready for TURTLE POWER! I wanted to go with something a little different so I chose a character from one cartoon series to place into another series. Ever since the death of uncle Ben, and Peter Parker moving out, Aunt May had to find things to do to fill in the gaps of her new found life. It seems fun to go to costume parties and eventually it became a regular thing for her. This year she was excited to find a vintage suit of one of her favorite oldies cartoons. Donatello! Wait till the girls see me in this! She thought to her self. :) Quote
Big Cam Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Perfect, I love it. I was a bit sceptical on the mask but once its on, it looks great. Kudos on the shell idea and that belt, the belt just looks great. Reminds me of my childhood. Quote

Kudos on the shell idea and that belt, the belt just looks great. Reminds me of my childhood. Thank you! The childhood comment was exactly what I wanted it to do. The mask can actually stay on without the electric tape too which is pretty cool! I originally was going to make it out of paper/cardboard to portray more of that childhood feeling. Quote
LuxorV Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 This is a really nice custom, eclipsegrafx. Too bad you could not make it in time for the deadline Quote
eclipsegrafx Posted October 27, 2010 Author Posted October 27, 2010 This is a really nice custom, eclipsegrafx. Too bad you could not make it in time for the deadline Yeah I figured, Maybe an exception can be made? Pweeeze? :( I was going to stay up last night to do it and fell asleep at my desk then woke up early only to double check the ending time and realize I may have been too late. Though the time only says 12 GMT I wasn't sure if it was midnight or mid day. Oh well. If there is an exception I'd appreciate it but if not I understand. Its not like I would have an advantage over the rest :P. Quote
LuxorV Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 I am sorry, but, as you can understand, no exceptions can be made. It would mess the on-going voting and would open the door for others to ask for exceptions. Thank you for your understanding Quote

I had to atleast give it a shot. :) Not sure how far in the running I would have made it anyway. I will still post my second idea over the weekend. :) Quote
prateek Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 Wow. I just love the mask, and the figure as a whole is just amazing! Quote
The Soup Nazi Posted October 27, 2010 Posted October 27, 2010 I love the idea of an actual mask, not a minifig head! Quote
CommanderFox Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Loving the mask and shell eclipsegrafx! The belt looks great aswell, is that leather? To bad you didn't make it in time, maybe LuxorV will do another MCW contest soon. CF Quote
prateek Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 Too bad this didn't make it. I would've voted for this. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 Great job on this eclipsegrafx! Too bad you weren't able to beat the deadline. Anyway, keep it up with this quality custom minifigs. Quote
