Pate-keetongu Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 I've noticed this forum suffers from a sort of lack of purist minifigs... So here's some on my steampunk style. They differ from nearly-ordinary Victorian era people to cyclopic oddness. Enjoy! There is also a small backstory for each fig on my blog. Quote
TheLegoDr Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Those are some great characters. I love seeing purist recreations because that means I can copy any if I ever so desire. I'm amazed at how Steam Punky these look. Good work there. My favorites are the first row, first lady with the scientist hair. Brilliant. My next favorite is 5th row, first guy (with bike mechanic head). I didn't care for that figure, but the head works really well there. Keep up the great work. I don't know enough about Steam Punk to follow suit, but this is inspiring. Quote
TenorPenny Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Great creations, real imagination shown. Quote
Captain Braunsfeld Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Very helpful ... for me to man my airships! Thanks! Quote
Laura Beinbrech Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful! I like them all. I don't know if this was intentional on your part, but the guy who's second from the left on the second row is a dead ringer for the Red Mage class from various Final Fantasy games.... Quote
Guss Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) has the guy with the sausage been inspired by "Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler" ? And why is the photographer holding a frog ? XD Could also be a reference to the discworld but then the frog needs to be in the flash. :D read the description on your website :D Anyway I like these figs, and I think I actually made almost the same combination for some of my steampunk mocs. I used the glass scope on a diorama as example, except I put it the other way. Edited April 16, 2014 by Guss Quote
Zoenarr Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 These are terrific! First row, first and fourth from left; second row, third from left and finally fifth row, first, third and fourth are excellent. I'll have to go visit the store and see if I can create matches! Quote
Pate-keetongu Posted April 19, 2014 Author Posted April 19, 2014 Thanks all, and nice to see this thread again! has the guy with the sausage been inspired by "Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler" ? Yes! Well spotted. And now when this topic seems active again, here's some more: The bios can be found here as before - Enjoy! Quote
sithewok Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 These show some real imagination! I love them. Quote
Pate-keetongu Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 Here's another barf - Backstories on Cyclopic bricks as before! Quote
Infernum Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Wow! All these figs are incredible! Such great combinations! Quote
mccoyed Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Is this thread open to anyone who wants to toss up a steampunk figbarf? Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Is this thread open to anyone who wants to toss up a steampunk figbarf? Well this is pig's thread, but you're welcome to create your own topic, or an open topic about steampunk minifig Quote
mccoyed Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Well this is pig's thread, but you're welcome to create your own topic, or an open topic about steampunk minifig This is why I asked... was trying to make sure this was/wasn't an open thread. I guess we can clutter the boards with different threads for steampunk figbarfs but wasn't sure that was kosher. Thanks for clearing that up. Quote
Leewan Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 Woah, pig, you're a really talented character builder, no matter the style or the size. Mark "Gingerbeard" Haystett kinda reminds me of Jamie Hyneman. Quote
Bighappysmiles Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Wow! I love these! So often we see amazing steampunk minifigs that go beyond lego, and often think that lego isn't good enough! You however, have shown that with a bit of creativity, you can make them with lego parts! Love that you brave enough to stay inside the peramiters lego sets, and still acheive something beautiful! Just goes to show that a purist fig can be just as awesome as a custom! Great job, very, very impressed! Quote
Norro Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 I normally don't like steampunk, but these are very inspiring. I love how each one gushes with character and story rather than being 'merely' picturesque. Thanks a million for sharing! God Bless, Nathan Quote
LOTRfan Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) has the guy with the sausage been inspired by "Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler" ? Or Cut-Me-Own-Hand-Off Dhblah of Omnia. I LOVE these figs, I might have to use the jacket idea from the girl next to Dhblah/Dibbler. Edited July 2, 2014 by LOTRfan Quote
Bugbot2008 Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Wow these are all great! Every single one oozing with character, you have an excellent imagination! Quote
Lady K Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Thanks pig. These are great! Each one has a unique personality and style that can been seen by your design! Love it! Quote
