Throughout the various Mortal Kombat games he was involved in, Sektor has grown into an ever more menacing mechanized warrior. He represents the closest thing to evil a cyborg can be, and combines traits of both a stealthy ninja and a ruthless killing machine fit for modern warfare. In contrast to his counterpart Cyrax, Sektor never bothered to rediscover his human side, and may be unable to. As far as this could be said about a cyborg, it is likely that he suffers from a form of insanity. He is capable of independent thought and action like Cyrax and Smoke; however, unlike the other two cyborgs, the only emotion Sektor really displays is anger. Reference -Omi

I would like some mosaic licenses. :P And video games. That way I don't have to keep doing it. :P -Omi

This is what he means by digital camo. I assumed he meant desert given that he wanted it on a tan torso. -Omi

Never was a fan of FMA, but I gotta say these decals came out great. -Omi -
New BrickForge Screenprinted Items
Omicron replied to Omicron's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Brasso or an eraser can do the trick. If you plan on using brasso, use tape to cover the parts you don't wanna remove. As in regards to the UN Helmet, that was a special thing. And it isn't coming back. -Omi -

Hey, it's why I'm here. :P -Omi -
New BrickForge Screenprinted Items
Omicron replied to Omicron's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Armothe tends to reuse descriptions from other items. The description for the black, silver, and gold sci-fi decals is originally the description for the Roman Army decals and Torso/Shield decals (the colored ones). They cover up print as they are opaque. The Sci-fi ones are the ones printed on clear backing. Sorry for the confusion. -Omi -
The same ones that never leave your suitcase? :P -Omi

New BrickForge Screenprinted Items
Omicron replied to Omicron's topic in Minifig Customisation Workshop
Yes they come in black, silver, and gold. You can place them on blank torsos, or printed ones to make unique combos. -Omi -
BrickForge has just released some really cool screen printed products. Included: Soldier Helmet, Military Helmet, Pauldron, Military Shield. “I’ve been customizing some futuristic designs lately and thought it would be neat to come up with some fun graphics for our line of BF products. The Skullz represent an anarchist gang bent on wreaking havoc, and the Bomb Squad is a division of a more organized & heavy-handed government committed to restoring order in a chaotic world.” - Armothe Apply some of their Sci-Fi peel ‘n stick, die cut decals and create some pretty neat factions for your modern or futuristic layouts. Also available in the store are some new screen printed Acoustic Guitars, which feature various tribal prints. So stop reading this and purchase them now in the store! Also be on the lookout for some brand new molds! -Omi

Brasso does not alter the color of Lego. It does remove the print, however. -Omi

Rain is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. He made his debut in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. Born of the former world of Edenia, Rain was smuggled away from the realm as a small child shortly after Shao Kahn's take over. Thousands of years later he resurfaced. His allegiance belonging to Kahn, he chose to betray his homeland rather than suffer at the hands of Kahn's extermination Squads. Reference -Omi

I try to make use of it, if it is a useful piece like a weapon or body part. If it is a brick or another part, I throw it back in the bin for later mocing use. -Omi

Because I'm pretty much saving everything for Bfair, my stock is a little low for useful pieces. She was made from what I had on hand, hence the non flesh. As for the torso, I'm keeping my eye out for better ones to modify (I'll eventually find it). Thanks though. :D -Omi

For the years I have gone to these cons, I can guarantee that you will find some retired sets. Just don't expect them to be cheap. -Omi

Yeah Lego parts have a shiny finish on them which really prevents sticking for most things. I been told that soaking them in hot water for awhile can help remove it. Brasso can remove it as well. -Omi

Been awhile since I made something decent to show off. This is Quorra as she appears in the movie Tron: Legacy. Torso and legs modified with brasso by me. Arms recolored by me. -Omi

My "Lego alias" is ChocoBricks Customs, or ChocoBricks for short. I use it to represent my custom Lego figs elsewhere. ChocoBricks is a portmanteau of Chocobo and Lego Bricks. Chocobos are a staple in the Final Fantasy series, and since I am a huge fan of Final Fantasy, that is what I decided to use. Brick, Bricks, Briks, Brix, and Stud are the simple words to work around if you are keen on keeping it Lego related, and you can tack on other words like "Creations", "Customs", "Designs", etc. Like for example: ShadoBrix Creations or SilvaStud Designs. But those are just working off your screenname, since I don't know your husband's. -Omi

I use my hands with caution. I would use a vice but I do not have one and I personally like to have complete control of the part. And I have had some close shaves. :P Also anyone who uses a dremel should always use extreme caution. -Omi

Yes, but it is for the sole purpose of being used with Lego. They have their own set of figs, but Mnifig.Cat doesn't sell them. But BrickForge and Arealight make their own minifig parts as well. Bricklink has this rule basically saying that if it isn't Lego then it's a no go for selling it, but they make exceptions for custom items or stuff that compliments Lego. And Minifig.Cat, while selling non-Lego, is selling it for the sole purpose of Lego customization. Other people on BrickLink sell COBI and Sluban, and they aren't getting hassled. And it really isn't harming anyone. I'll probably just not buy from BrickLink anymore. -Omi

Love the decal applications. -Omi

There is nothing wrong with those products. They go along with Lego so well just like BrickArms, Tiny Tactical, BrickForge, and BrickTW. -Omi

Good luck getting those. Not easy to come by at the moment, and United Armory and Firestar Toys (the American and British resellers respectively) don't even have them. You're better off just modifying the clone trooper helmet. -Omi
