Rinzler Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 My purist Multiplex and Shade can be seen here: Quote
Douglas_Jon Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 This may sound like a stupid question, but I'm new to making customs, so can anyone tell me what 'Purist' actually means? I was under the assumption that it is creating minifigures using official Lego pieces without any modifications being needed (e.g. Decals, unofficial moulds etc). Quote

Numbuh1Nerd Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Multiplex looks great! Multiplex looks great, too! Not a bad torso choice for Shade, but I'd personally use a white or maybe light gray head. Quote
Douglas_Jon Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Exactly. Brilliant, Thanks! If I want to post my customs should I get myself a Flickr account and just post links? :) Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Brilliant, Thanks! If I want to post my customs should I get myself a Flickr account and just post links? :) If you can figure out how to post the pics directly to the forum you can, but for those of us that can't, we just post links like that, yeah.

Krikkit Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Cheshire. Might need a different hair though... Thinking the rock star minifig, but is that hair squeezy like the goth girl? Purist Cheshire Purist Cheshire Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 That hair won't fit with the bandanna thanks to two little bits in the front. I'd definitely try to find some black hair, though. Otherwise, pretty great design! Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Thinking about Krikkit's Cheshire got me curious as to what I could do with the character, and this is what I got for Cheshire. I also made Kyle Rayner. Quote
meschepers Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Kyle Rayner is the GL I grew up reading so I wanted to make a version as well. I used the new Robin's head for him. I am waiting for some Bricklink orders to arrive then I will have pics to post. Quote
adotnamedstud Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Captain Panaka's face in the new Lightspeeder set would serve as a useful head for Black Adam. Quote
Zergos Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Oh yea I never considered that nuff, nice spot! :D Quote
Numbuh1Nerd Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) Any ideas for a purist Black Canary? Captain Nemo posted this one a few pages back, and I think it's just perfect. If you can't get a hold of that torso, I'd suggest using the recent Catwoman torso and cutting a short blue cape to make her jacket. It's not exactly purist, but it's what I would do. Come to think of it, you could always use that torso and just bare arms if you'd like, or even the Belatrix Lestrange torso that some people seem to prefer. AND I just found where someone else used the back of the CMF Gorilla Suit Guy's torso, which doesn't look too bad either. Lots of ways to do this one, thankfully, cause god only knows how long it'll take for Lego to make an official Black Canary. Edited February 21, 2015 by Numbuh1Nerd Quote
CobaltMoon98 Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Just had an idea for a yellow purist version of the DCCU Aquaman. Kapau's torso would be great. It has the armor (on the wrong side), tattoos, and a belt with symbols which slights resemble the shape of an A. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=njo122 Quote

WarSquirrel Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Does anyone have any ideas for the DCCU Aquaman in flesh colour - I am trying to make the DCCU justice league. So far I am using New 52 Batman, Man Of Steel Superman and a mix of both of the Wonder Woman minifigures. Quote

So far I am using New 52 Batman, Man Of Steel Superman and a mix of both of the Wonder Woman minifigures. (For a minute I was like "Man of Steel Superman? Interesting choice." and then I was like "Wait. Duh." lol) I don't think there are any decent torsos for him yet, unless you just go with a bare chest. It shouldn't be too long before we get him officially, though. Two years, tops. Quote

Thanks , I might go with that plus gold arms Going through the light flesh torsos on Bricklink, the closest I saw was Hawkman's. Thanks for your help, I think I will use this Edited February 22, 2015 by LuxorV Quote
autorazr Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Holy craw, I've missed some amazing stuff. All the usual suspects have been killing it in my absence and new peeps too, its awesome. I got a new job and lost the cool camera and equipment that I borrowed from the old one, so I'm back with iphone+photoshop quality images. I hope you guys enjoy. (my new jobs better, and also has a camera, Im just holding off a little longer before I start bringing it home for lego) DOFP Magneto Silver Sable Purple Man Robbie Reyes Ghostrider Jean Grey and Hank McCoy and just one from DC Kyle Rayner GL Quote
K-Nut Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Yup, I'm stealing the Silver Sable. Nicely done! I had the same idea for Purple Man. I thought about Sinestro's head, but I think this one is better. That's an interesting Beast idea, too. Quote

Thanks, beast is meant to be him as introduced in grant morrisons new xmen, where he has begun to devolve into a cat form. Quote
CobaltMoon98 Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 I love the Kyle Rayner. I still need to buy more GL torsos to make the Corps. Quote
