osakana Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Hello everyone, I've never made a custom figure, but after putting Wyldstyle's wig on a Friends doll I decided to make this one -- Wyldstyle Friendstyle! This is only photoshop simulation, but I'm planning to make a real one soon. I'm using Mia's face because of the freckles. However, I have no idea how to make a Friends-compatible hood. Quote
Deathleech Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 However, I have no idea how to make a Friends-compatible hood. Looks good! You will probably have to mold one yourself... Quote
Cheatster9000x Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 I like it! But the thing that irks me, is that it isn't yellow. You're probably going to have to paint it yellow, if you want it authentic... Quote
Cirkit Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 The existing minifig hoods don't work on the Friends heads? Not even the pulled-back hood? Dang. You could take a minifig-cape and use that as a hood somehow, or cut one from cloth to use. Might be simpler than making a totally new mold for this. It's an interesting idea, and I like how the Photoshopped image looks. I think, though, that without the zipper or other subtle features, the Photoshopped image looks rather plain. I hope that whenever you make this a reality, that those little details make it in. I also have to agree with Cheaster- it does look odd not having her yellow, however if this is meant to be a Friends thing then I can understand the color change. I hope to see more of this soon! :) Quote

The "LEGO Part 15853 - Minifig Hood Wyldstyle" is too wide, as it was design to fit normal minifig body and Friends' body is thinner. Quote
Cheatster9000x Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 To everyone that says that the friends figs are flesh, I know, but it just doesn't sit right that she's the wrong colour. Quote
