Ideas for CMFs

Recommended Posts

In all honesty... I don't get how you can create such decent, imaginative characters for nothing and those paid to do this barely get half a series anywhere close to as good as this. (OK, S14 was really good, but this still blows that out the water). 

I absolutely love each and every single one of them! Especially your headless horseman. And the scary tree. And and... Well damn, all of them! I do wonder though... If the skeleton horse would be better off with the headless horseman instead of the dead cowboy otherwise he's a headless horselessman :snicker:

Also... I neeeeeeeeeeeeed that mini frankenstein monster!!! :wub_drool: Why would you go and do a thing like design that when it probably will never become a reality! :cry3:

 

Get your resume/cv in to TLG design team right this instant! Heck, send a physical copy with a cover letter and all your designs. We need you there! :purrr:

Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Including 2 skeleton horses was too much for a single series. And I decided the Headless Horseman would stand out more on its own than the Ghost Rider, so that's why I gave it to him.

.....

I think the designers are limited by budget or testing results

For instance, the've said they tried steampunk stuff and it didnt test well with the kids, so it didn't happen

Also, City is a top seller, while castle and pirates failed the last time they tried, which explains why city is pretty much 50% of the cmf series at this point

That new hairpiece looks nice in 3D. I look forward to seeing some figures with very unique parts and how they turn out :thumbup:

That Halfling looks so great! I hope the artist will make other minifigs from your series! :excited:

On a site called ArtSation, Malgarmos is making 3D models of some of the minifigures I make

That's really neat!  I wonder how hard it would be to add those to Stud.io with the parts designer.  Printed parts are fairly easy, but I don't know anything about designing a new element.  Maybe you can import a Blender file?

I have literally no idea of anything you just said :laugh:. I only do 2D drawings. Maybe you could ask him on ArtStation?

Cool minifigure! I suppose something similar showed up in the new City sets? 

The exact same thing: a blind person with a guide dog :cry2:

 

EDIT. I decided I'll still use it for Series T with some changes

A Yule minifig? Is it my birthday?

(Answer: No, no it is not, my birthday is in July.)

But seriously, I'm gonna be speculating like mad now. Holly King? Mithra? Frigga? No, don't tell me, I want to be surprised! Do not open the box until Yule!

I really dodged a bullet with S21

I had plans for a female centaur and jaguar warrior and was about to start working on them

Other than that. Violinist came to happen. Same with ladybug costume and castaway.

I'm sure I'll love it anyway. The fact that you even acknowledge Yule is magnificent.

I kind of hope we get a figure with a Tió de Nadal just because I think it'd be funny.

Of course I wouldn't mind if there isn't.
