Watchmen of Miniland

[Pate-keetongu]

(I'm not completely sure is this right theme forum, but if I remember right, unofficial licences go to other themes)

I have been getting into Miniland scale building lately. After some contests in our Finnish LUGs, I tried to build characters from Alan Moore's and Dave Gibbon's graphic novel Watchmen. I made the main characters expect Doctor Manhattan, beacause I don't own a lot light/medium blue bricks.

From left to right, Silk Spectre II, Nite Owl II, The Comedian, Rorschach and Ozymandias.

Close-ups:

The Comedian, probably the easiest of the bunch to build.

Nite Owl II, the cape was quite hard to build.

Silk Spectre II:

Rorschach:

Ozymandias. The costume was pretty hard ro build because those 2x3 wedge plates were my only purple pieces.

A-m-a-z-i-n-g!

Great job!

You did really capture the essence of each Watchmen! Congrats!

Very creative MOC pig! Even at Miniland-scale these figs are instantly recognizable as the Watchmen characters due to the pretty clever detailing. I particularly like Nite Owl's distinct inverted-triangle forehead and the use of headlight bricks for Rorschach's buttoned cape. Great job!
