Depending on how much Acetone you use can you get it to like a (watery) liquid consistency? ~RBC

Thanks for the tips. I may actually spray paint it gold and then tape off the front visor design, and then spray paint a coat of silver on. Would that work? ~RBC

I'm actually planning on doing an Isildur custom soon. We can compare "notes" if you'd like once I'm finished. ~RBC

Want: Roman Soldier 2+ Conquistador 1+ Want: Roman Soldier 2+ Conquistador 1+ I have lots of minifigs, parts and accessories to trade. PM me if interested. ~RBC

How thick/thin is it? Does it work with pearl gold bricks? What about pearl silver? ~ RBC PS: Oops, sorry ADMINS/MODS for the double post.

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knows how I could paint the front part (around the eye slit) of a Kingdom lion knight sugarloaf/crusader-like helm gold while leaving the rest the original silver color? Comments appreciated. ~ RBC

I use PhotoStudio and Gimp (Mac OS X version) I use (shipping address) labels to print the designs on. ~RBC

Hey guys, I was wondering what you other EB customizers suggest, as far as air-dry clay(s), for Lego customizing? Right now I use solely Sculpey III, but wanted to start also using air-dry clay(s) as well. I was going to pick up some Miliput at my local Hobby Lobby. What (else) do y'all suggest? ~ RBC

Str0ngbad, The Prologue Elf (Warrior) is not a playable character, but I can get you some movie shots. I'll post them here. ~RBC

Looks AWESOME!!! :D Is her hair custom? I don't think I've seen that hairpiece anywhere. Great work on the decals. Can't wait to see what else you come up with. Keep up the good work. :) ~RBC

Thanks. :) I just ordered the game myself for the Xbox 360. It should be arriving by the weekend (if not earlier) I'll try to find some pics myself. Thanks for all the help. :) ~RBC

Aragorn (Royal Armor) I just need a large clear shot of his breastplate armor so I can make a decal of it. Thanks again for all the help. ~RBC

I created some decals of the nine kings in the prologue, I'll post them here soon. Also if anyone can find me some good straight-on shots of Ilsidur I'd appreciate it (see my post in MCW). Thanks, ~ RBC

Hey guys, I am currently working on some custom lego LotR minifigs, and one of the minifigs I am trying to make is Isildur from the Prologue. I have searched all over the web, but I can find any straight-on shots of him with which to make a torso decal. If any one could provide me with a clear, crisp picture(s) of his back and a clear large straight-on shot of his front, I'd be extremely grateful. I do not own the game (yet), just the demo for Xbox 360. Thanks in advance, ~RBC

I'd certainly be willing to do something for you Str0ngbad. I'll get right on it :) ~RBC

One of my best friends is a TFOL does that count? ~RBC

Great job. :) I like the first picture a lot. I was looking to get some 3-D printed parts from Shapeways made, but I didn't know what the best and easiest to use CAD software was? I've heard that many people use Google Scetchup, is it for this kind of thing? Also is there any easy way to determine the proper proportions and measurements for the parts? ~ RBC

I would like to purchase 5 clones and one Jango Fett minifig. How much for just these 6 minifigures? Let me know. ~ RBC

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knows how to make molds of custom (or official) lego helmet using Amazing Mold Putty (or any other brand of mold putty for that matter.)? I know how to make them with silicone rubber, but how do you make them with mold putty? Please give me your input ASAP! Thanks again, ~Jake

Hey guys its Jake. Recently I have been doing a lot of customizing with Sculpey and have looked at a lot of tutorials written by master customizers like RedBean, Kaminoan, and others, and I have found some very useful tips to help me. I still have a few questions that hopefully a more experienced sculptor and customizer can answer. 1. How do I get the Sculpey as smooth as Lego pieces, besides using sandpaper? 2. When you boil the Sculpey how do you keep it from warping and shrinking* * Last week I created some custom armor using Lamnda’s armor tutorial, and when I went to boil it, it looked fine and was hard. I wanted it to cool down quicker so I stuck it in the freezer, but when I took it out about 30 minutes later the neck ole for the armor had warped and shrunk so I couldn’t use the piece. :( Please respond as soon as possible! Thanks again. ~ Jake

Hey guys I know that this is a two year old topic (please don't ban me) but I just wanted to say that I HAVE created complete lego-compatible heads out of sculpey, and I found it works out really well. I published a tutorial on it on the MCW back in June. Also tin7 do you know how to smooth out the clay pieces? I tried sand paper, but that makes them rough and the sanded bits of clay stick to my piece. Thanks, ~Jake
