Drew15 Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) How can I do what Roberto does? How does one respond to another person? Also I have a google doc with 16 custom series. 9 minutes ago, Digger of Bricks said: As I've shared over on Flickr, my standout favorites from this series are the Mounted Policeman and the Saree Girl, with honorable mention for your female counterparts to Lego's Series 5 Eskimo and Series 7 Jungle Boy CMFs! And, like I'd said there too, your Supervillain is this series' most unusually delightful surprise! Damn, it's going to be quite hard waiting until April for your Series Ñ... Speaking of such, is that supposed to be a new shade of green introduced for this archetype, or is it just simply Olive Green? Those are some excellent ideas @Drew15! Might I suggest sharing them over at this topic too! By that, do you mean renders/illustrations?! Well i don't know how to do what Roberto does so i don't have illustrations. However I do have a google doc with 16 customized series. If you guys would like to see more of my ideas I can post a link so anyone can view.

Roebuck Posted February 4, 2019 Excellent series @Robert8 Glad that you have started to include more animals, the beaver, seal and snake are awesome In addition to the animals my favorite fig is probably the knight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert8 Posted February 4, 2019 Just now, Roebuck said: Excellent series @Robert8 Glad that you have started to include more animals, the beaver, seal and snake are awesome In addition to the animals my favorite fig is probably the knight Thanks. Originally my idea with Series N was that every minifigure would come with an animal either real (seal, snake) or not (microscale horse, robotic dog). And even sci fi "animals" like the one with the Alien Tracker. But I didn't like how the whole Series looked all together and I ended up scrapping that idea. Pilgrim Woman with a turkey, Snorkerler with a sea turtle and Birdwatcher with a toucan are some of the minifigures who were removed from this series. And also the Blue Boy with the lamb was originally in this series as well but he went to Series M instead. 6 hours ago, Digger of Bricks said: So, that is supposed to be Olive Green portrayed there? I kind of cheat with the colors because I don't really stick to LEGO's color palette . I was just saying that if this minifigure is produced by LEGO, that color would be their olive green 23 hours ago, x105Black said: Wow, this series is fantastic!

Hoo boy; truth be told I haven't given it much thought for a while. I might get it back up and running, once I reevaluate my selections to make sure I don't use any concepts you beat me to. But I'm afraid I've long since lost access to adobe illustrator, so if I do show them they'll just be pencil and paper drawings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karalora Posted February 8, 2019 Lots of awesome ideas and designs once again, but I think the real stars of the show this time around are the animal accessories! The snake, the seal, the beaver, the robot dog, the ZOMBIE DOG!!! The Cosplayer is also funny as heck and would work great in a scene with your Theme Park Mascot from the last series!

JJ Tong (zfogshooterz) Posted February 14, 2019 Whoa, this series has some good minifgures, the designs has amazed me again! Minifigs that I totally dig is the Bandito, the Jousting Knight, the Zombie Girl, Alien Tracker (I thought he spreads the aliens when I first saw him hehe!), and the Cosplayer (That unikitty suit looks darn cute!). But...ultimately, my fav is the Supervillain, Saree Girl and the Witch Doctor! Amazingly detailed and their accessories just looked so good that I really wish I could have 'em in real life haha! And I think I'll say the same for the Cosplayer too! That cuteness there! Again, great stuffs there and and thanks for showing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Digger of Bricks Posted March 8, 2019 By the way @Robert8, I know I've made an awful many number of suggestions in between your more recent series, but could you perhaps consider a Rocketeer-type CMF design for a future series? While I know such an archetype may seem too closely tied with the Rocketeer to be considered archetypical, the character does owe his roots to other "rocket-men" of film serials of the 1940's and 1950's, namely Commando Cody for notable instance. Spoiler Plus, there are a great many directions you can take such a design without being too on-the-nose with the Rocketeer, just look at many of these original fan characters and designs! (Yes, many are indeed inspired after the Rocketeer, but they all try to aesthetically differ from the character to varying degrees) William Mai's Victoria F. Archer (Three images) Spoiler Marvel Comics' The Aviatrix Spoiler David Grant's RocketMan (Six suit designs, four helmet designs) Spoiler Daryl Wong's Alternate History Aviator Spoiler Cinemaware's Rocket Ranger Reloaded Spoiler P.S. Just so you know, this is only a sampling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarrellBricker Posted March 12, 2019 Robert, what can I say that I haven't already said many times before? Amazing work, I would proudly own every single one of these, and the next time I wish on a star, I'll wish that Lego pays you for ALL of your designs and turns them into actual minifigures. Obligatory faves list - Saree Girl - BEAUTIFUL!; Mountie - the Beaver cinches it!; Jungle Girl; Zombie Woman; and Flying Guy ... I presume inspired by Icarus? Love me some mythological Minifigs ... Anyway, awesome job, as usual. Thanks so much for sharing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert8 Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Thanks for you comments! The next series is around the corner, including a circus character, a grim writer with a raven and a costumed minifigure who has been causing a lot of troubles at certain loch...
