legofreak

um, I watch the show with my son, and we both like it. Of course, he likes it more, being 7 1/2 (DO NOT FORGET THE 1/2!) but it is a fun show. in fact.. he requested that i make a minifig, and i am currently getting some custom hair done.. but in the meantime if you'd like a decal.... hope you like it Kahgarak (pic = link)

I am sorry I missed this post. I loved the movie the Warriors, and hoped that the title of this thread was a quote from that. Speaking as a customizer, its better if you can use official lego pieces as much as possible..more playability Customs (IMO) are for those special pieces that look way cool, but get played with infrequently. on topic, these figs are fantastic. You have really captured them - I can't wait to see the rest, as well as some of the other gangs.

well considering I keep changing the MOC's on my desk at work, I think everyone I know knows... if they dont' I tell them soon enough. :-D i will say that as a teenager I didnt advertise it, but all my friends knew and were cool with it. they thought I was a bit weird, but then.. the lego had nothing to do with that.

i havent tried it but i imagine so

an Idea you may want to consider as well is the use of spray starch. Spray your sails (the back) with spray starch, iron them and then they will be nice and stiff. You will have to judge how much starch you use (you may want your sails not so stiff or you may want them stiff - judgement call :-D ) I can tell you it works great. The other thing I when I didnt have any canvas to work with was to create a template and print out my own for use in my medieval cogs.... The paper is almost as thick as photo paper but not quite, and it is shiny so it gives it a gloss. I would like to try some of that laser printable canvas you can buy so I can put my own designs on the sails.

Lego: a couple of knights from the Yellow castle (mostly complete.. I need two gray helms - I am using space helms instead) and a brown pitchfork. Non Lego: a Little Armory Prototype Crusader helm :D

Ok - I wanna play

VIKINGS!

I really love those shields! I like to make the customs using the kk2 shields, but the ones you built are awesome and purist approved! *y*

my mother is always sending me pictures of cute little animals doing weird stuff.. now I have repaid her in kind. :D thanks for the best laugh I had all week.

Matt Zitron once again! I received my big baseplate in the mail yesterday and am happily building today. :D I was seriously worried about it in the mail, though he assured me he would pack it securely. (I have little faith in the postal system in my neck of the woods) The way he packed it the USPS would have had to run it over with a forklift! not a crack, dent, chip or otherwise imperfection! fantastic trade, and no problems.

ya got my vote :D

one day X:D was swinging through the streets of New York City when he heard a scream! It was *wench* and she was being threatened by 8-) and *pirate4* ! "I'll save you!" said X:D . X:D shot his webbing over 8-) and *pirate4* trapping them in the sticky fluid. but before he could do anything else *viki* kicked his megablocks and carried away *wench* . the end..

Personally I think its going to be awesome. I have to say that the only years I was dissappointed in TLC were the years when there were no new castles. Of course they had star wars so it wasnt too bad I guess. :D Now it looks like they fixed the castle thing (yay vikings and kk2!) so .. well.. I'm good *satis*

yup - got it for my son. I do live in California US though. so I dont know if that helps or hinders you. :)
